So a very expensive peripheral being partly directed at gaming (despite obvious practical limitations to its integration) with marketing that is highly misleading about it's capabilities. Now where have we heard this song before?


^ this.

And the most important part:  " ....partly directed at gaming (despite obvious practical limitations to its integration)".

 

AR is going to suck for gameing, plane and simple, when compaired to VR.

And VR is going to be easy to develop for (compaired to AR) and cheaper 249-299$ price tag for a VR headset.

 

I dont see how this product ever really takes off and takes the world by storm.

Even Facebook, leader of social media choose to buy a VR company

 (instead of going for AR which is uniquely suited for social media).

For now VR is the more affordable one and it is supported by many company such as HTC, Valve, and SONY and even Samsung. It will take time to make AR like the Ad they showed and especially to make the price afordable for the targeted market. And also Microsoft need a compatitor to support AR potential market.
