I thought the steam video was the best demo to date for one to realize what VR is since it is hard to describe with words and looks a bit dorky watching someone with a HMD and you can't understand the immersion seeing what they see on a 2D screen.

FYI
A cardboardVR device only gives you the idea of the concept. Does not compare to a full HMD like the HTC Vive.
But if you have not experienced VR, get a Google cardboard for less than $5 delivered on ebay and use your smartphone.
Heck, badoink and others are giving them away.

You will never have as much fun under $10 in your life.
I agree. My cardboard has opened me up to buying one of the big boys toys once I make up my mind.
