I tried Glass a month or so ago, it was wholly underwhelming and I still couldn't think of a good reason to ever wear that thing. And most people will never wear Glass, because there is no killer-app to convince a large audience to ever buy it. VR already has a killer app, which is gaming. The Oculus launches with 30 games, including a Valve VR game/demo. More and more free game engines are supporting VR (e.g. Crytek V). Bullet Train looks amazing, I've heard that Tilt Brush is great too. Can't wait to see what creative developers do with the tech. I think that as soon as the price drops below $400, it'll take off. That's in the ballpark of good monitors, which VR sort of is anyway.
