That and the fact that you couldn't play and look around at the same time.

But still very cool.
It seems to me that you could still watch someone else play and it wouldn't be that bad an experience. It looks like a normal screen, unlike the double-vision look of current 3D tech. Since this is for one-person gaming only anyway, it wouldn't be used for games that other people would want to watch, so I guess it's a moot point.

As for not looking around, since when does a player look at anything but the game? If the environment really were this immersive (I move to one side to see further down a hallway, etc) then I would be totally involved in the game and not be looking anywhere else anyway.
