I spotted this in the latest issue of Game Developer magazine -- head
tracking technology AND a big-screen viewing experience:

http://www.racesimcentral.net/

It currently only supports 800 x 600 resolution, but if it works well,
what you gain in terms of immersion might make up for what you lose in
resolution.  They're at E3 (booth 7045) so I hope some of the
magazines put up some sort of report on this -- it looks very
interesting.

Thx for posting, John.

Now, if only it had stereoscopy!  (GPL supports a pair of CPUs, so it's not
unthinkable.)
