so basically what he is trying to say is "yeah its interesting, but its not important", in an indirect way. if VR actually becomes a success MS are gonna be in a really bad place, because while VR isnt a "now thing" its right around the corner, and the big dogs arent fucking around when it comes to it, Valve, HTC, Facebook and Sony are gonna be going all in.

Yep , that sounded really down played.

Xbox is gonna be left behinde when it comes to VR compaired to sony, basically just got comfirmed.

 

 

"Sure, VR will be awesome for some games like FPS and racing games, but what about the other genres? How will it be to play a third person shooter, an adventure game, a RPG or a platformer with those headsets?"

 

who cares if not all game genre are suited  for it?

If it turns out its the best way to experiance a FPS, and the market takes off while MS is just twiddling its thumbs waiting on others to see how things turn out... its going to be behinde from the get go.

 

 

"I agree with him but even in a few years when the technology is finally there to make it happen, will the games be ready for it?"

Its looks like the technology is here.... now, not a few years away.

Its just a matter of hitting the market with the right price & a good game to go along with it,... and you ll lunch the start of a new way to experiance gameing.

 

VR could be big, if such a wave was to hit the scene, you would want to be ontop of your game for it.


Ok i know this wasnt for me and i dont know if anyone replyed to you after, but i just had to but in..

1. bananaking21 wasnt downplaying anything in fact! even he was wrong too!!..

Yes on the PC side the tech is here but if you think your PS4 or X1 will be playing games like Uncharted 4 or Halo 5 in Vr your in for a shock as they are just not powrful enough to give 2 1080P screens in at least 60FPS to get rid of motion sickness! but i guess you must think our current gen consoles can do that??.

2. Phil is 100% right todays consoles just wont be able to do VR the way most people excpect sure they will show pictures etc in VR but when it comes to games they will only be able to do very simple type games as remember VR takes twice as much power to use as a non VR set since your displying the same image twice and its been proving you need at least 60HZ not to feel motion sickness in most cases evenb more!. so if the PS4 or X1 cant even hit that with most non VR games how do you expect it to do so with them??


you dont need both to have 1080p image, just half for each eye
