Microsoft is making HoloLens games — and attacking virtual reality’s momentum

It's not really attacking the momentum as much as riding it.

 

The difference between augmenting reality and CREATING it? Light years apart. I don't think it's going to catch on and I think they know it. This is about recouping as much A&D money as possible.

I really dont think that is it at all.  Companies make prototypes all the time that never gets released.  There is over 500 people  working on Hololens, and over 100 more positions still open for it.  Its very obvious that MSFT believes in Hololens.  The reaction that Hololens had once revealed was great.  It not only has the potential of being a great addition to games, but also outside of games.

Whether you like VR or AR, theyre both very different things.
