of course I comprende. hell, I even grok if you want to go there. that's why I noted the helmets and gloves have tanked so far (however if you watch kids playing Wii it's not exactly absent from the mainstream either...)

buuut, total immersion is not a physical thing, it's a virtual thing (i.e. the very name of the so-called experience!) and Korean kids dying from not sleeping or eating in one person shooter arcades are certainly totally immersed!
