Playing holoquake to much, you'd get these strange automatisms in real life when you suddenly expect a shambler to come around a corner.

Actually, years ago I remember watching a video demonstrating an AR version of Quake. It was amazing to see the monsters aware of the real life obstacles while pursuiting the player. I supose one can find the video using some google fu (it predates youtube if memory serves me well).
I know FrikaC made a cgi-bin version of the quakec interpreter once and wrote part of his website in QuakeC :) (LordHavoc)

It's not a true holographic device, it's just an augmented reality device, right?
