Is VR possible?

When I bought my 120hz monitor about 3 years back, it came with a free Nvidia 3D Vision 2 Kit bundled in.

Now....I've played P99 in Stereo 3D a bit, and there's one MAJOR problem above all else. Many of the in-game assets (trees, shrubs, many SPELL EFFECTS) are actually flat, two-dimensional objects that rotate to the appropriate viewpoint as you the player view them. This generally looks fine when playing normally, but when playing in true 3D they really stand out.

Even worse, many of these object (some spell effects and player nameplates in particular) aren't actually placed in proper 3D space. The end result is that they appear in the absolute foreground of the image instead of, for example, the nameplate appearing over the 3D model of the player.

That's a good point. I just got a pair of the cellphone goggles and besides tracking head movement, it adds a 3D effect to the graphics as well.

I read earlier that CD Projekt got a grant from the Polish government to add VR to their upcoming games. I'm always chasing the immersion buzz I got when I first played EQ when it was one of the only 4 or 5 3D-accelerated games on the market so I'm interested to see where this is going.
