I’m not sure DOF would look good if used all the time. In crysis 2, if you get hit really hard or something overwhelming happens (this is on the dx 11 patch) the DOF changes in and out making it appear that you are dizzy. In Modern Warfare 2, when you zoom everything around the gun gets a DOF blur. I think that these are probably the only good ways to use it.

Especially since, in a video game, there is no way to automatically focus on what you want to look at.
