One
example of a limitation of virtual reality is when Ted, first gets plugged into
eXistenZ and tries to interact with the other characters he gives a
reply that doesn't go with the game and the character starts repeating the
scene like it never happened before and waits for an appropriate response. I
feel that the virtual world can help a person realize that in the virtual world
they can do things that they normally wouldn't do in the real world, in the
virtual world you can create an alter ego, and you can do many things that you
normally wouldn't do. Like on the xbox, you can create an xbox live account and
create an avatar that you feel represents you. In video games, you take lives
of killers, spies, and even sports stars and do things you couldn't even dream
about doing in the real world. Some people also feel better when they compete against another person in the virtual world, like now Sony and Microsoft have game consoles where you can compete with anyone in the world who has that game and console, a lot of people play online whether it is competitive shooting games or competitive sports games.
