Phil Spencer hopes VR isn't the future of gaming.

After thinking about this more. The fact that Phil had to downplay it tells they (Microsoft gaming) think it's going to be big. This is just preemptive damage control.

Then again being one of the few people who has experience VR I see it as the future of gaming. It truly takes gaming somewhere new, feels fresh, and creates new experience that has truly drawn out the inner child in me that most modern gaming has not,

It doesn't matter which device it was: Aperturel, Morpheus, or even Occulus. They all provided amazing experiences that made me wanting more. I too was a skeptic, but once you've had your first good VR experience, I think many of the naysayers will be hooked.

Maybe, I think he was being honest when he said he hopes it's not the future. But I do think it has more to do with MS not wanting to get caught with it's pants down than it does with the actual tech or experience itself.

I am 100% with you on having a good VR experience. I was a pretty big skeptic of VR when Oculus first showed up, but after having a really good VR experience I'm sold. I'm just waiting to see what the support will be like, and how much they'll cost.
