Virtual Reality glasses. That work, not like now we have the helmet and have to stand on some platform with wires attached to our bodies which no gamer could afford or want to buy if they could. Just throw on the specs and like magic your in the game world. This will be a huge massive success cause everyone wants to escape from reality from time to time and VR is the closest it will ever get. Can't understand why Microsoft or some game developer company look into this and go hard out in inventing a simple gadget everyone could afford.

sliced bread.

'the best thing since sliced bread' is a common phrase and implies that whilst the thing you are talking about is awesome, it still isn't as awesome as sliced bread.
