Well, sure. I was just saying when this sort of thing takes over for (say) a
normal VR interface. Obviously making it easier to control passively is not
the point of a game based on a motion sensor.

In Rucker's books, for example, one makes a fist and points the direction
one wants to travel. Not really hard to do.

Nicole can't. I forgot to ask anyone else...
Still, Laura & Melissa can do Rock Around the Clock and end up at the
other end of the dance hall. Not forgetting passing through every point
in space before reaching there. (Isn't that what relativity predicts?)

Win.
As one commenter wrote, "the future of gaming".

I think it's quantum mechanics.

I know I've seen Laura go out the door on the left, and five minutes
later go out the door on the left again. I think it might be quantum
tunnelling...

No, that's a sign that they are making changes in the Matrix.

Ah, right.
I guess that would also explain how Acer is able to lift Laura up so
high that her feet nearly take the light fittings out...
