The lads from Road to VR (roadtovr.com) take us on a journey into Samsung's effort to tickle your inner ear. By aurally stimulating your vestibular system via your ear canal, Samsung claims to be able to simulate an immersive experience. They call it Galvanic Vestibular Stimuation (GVS).
Let's unpack all that marketing mumbo jumbo. Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation really just means they pump sound into your ear using headphones. The sound is designed to make you feel all out of this world. Hmmm. Didn't Pink Floyd do this with Comfortably Numb back in '79?

Would this device give us the ability to more so immerse our selves in some games with a truly good story instead of just put us in some tiny room to explore?

One would hope so but I highly doubt it. Content is lagging the hype.

Why immerse yourself in a game, when a beautiful world is waiting to be explored. The world today is to dependent on this "extraordinary" technology meanwhile the most extraordinary thing is waiting for you right outside your door!
