VR has way more promise because I can project you into worlds far beyond the geometry of your environment. AR may also potentially suffer from the same issues that plagued Kinect: Inconsistent experiences. Trying to map movement into actions is hard (see Fighter Within). Now, imagine making any experience larger than a desktop surface and the complxity of differentenvironments. You are noy going to get something like Eve Valkyrie in AR. No pure 360 immersion.

Minecraft on Halo Lens lets you turn your livingroom into a workpad for Minecraft.
VR lets walk through that world in full 3D.
