Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Microsoft's E3 will not be all about VR and AR Phil Spencer promises.

***In-thread warning***

 

From Gamepsot.

Virtual reality technology has been a major talking point so far in 2015. And although Microsoft is involved in that space with HoloLens, the company isn't going all-in on that front at E3 this summer.

Head of Xbox Phil Spencer recently addressed the matter on Twitter.

"Our E3 will not be all about VR and AR. I promise."

It's possible Microsoft may talk about HoloLens in some form during its E3 briefing. After all, the company has openly stated that the technology does have gaming potential.

E3 2015 runs June 16-18 in Los Angeles. Of course we don't know yet what will be announced, but we are expecting some news about the Gears of War franchise and Halo 5: Guardians.

HoloLens--an augmented reality technology--is "something different" than Oculus and Project Morpheus, Microsoft said previously. Interestingly, Spencer also recently said that Microsoft has not ruled out developing its own dedicated virtual reality technology some day.

It will not be all about it, probably only 75%. The rest will be about Windows 10 and PC gaming.

Show me the games Phil!

Of course it won't, just as it won't be all about games, even Nintendo will probably mention miiverse for 5 seconds.

Wow when will you ever stop, you seem to be obsess with trying to be negative with Xbox and Microsoft?



Proud to be a Californian.

I hope there isn't any AR/VR at all.


Stepping stones... We all want it to be like SAO but it takes time.



So why the use of 'promises'? Is he by chance suggesting it would be a 'bad' thing if they did announce something related to VR? I love semantics and what they tell you about PR and reverse psychology.

Not really, I'm just excited about Windows 10, Free to play Halo and HoloLens. Those are some great things that could finally make me buy a PC
