Ah, the naivity of predictions.

Play "Space War"? As if games on a computer will ever catch on - we're all too busy making turtles and drawing men with them...

Honestly one thing I feel Star Trek got 100% correct (or will be 100% correct) is holodeck, and holodeckaddiction.

I can definitely see people being treated psychologically for hating the real world. Especially with current advances in VR. It already happens with the internet, and that's barely immersive.
