I'm sure we'll have brain-controlled computer systems by then, but I don't think we'll have VR until the technology is considerably more advanced. The reason early attempts at VR in the '90s failed was because it made people motion sick -- our sense of balance comes from the inner ear, and if your ear says you're sitting still while your eyes say you're moving (or vice versa in the case of sea-sickness), your brain interprets it as, "Crap, I must've eaten something hallucinogenic; better initiate emergency stomach purge." So at the very least VR will require something that can override your inner ear.
