The crowds reaction and he stood there silently waiting for the usual applause. (some random guy laughs)

Well that crowd is made of a bunch of idiots, then. This is the future of gaming.


VR may well be the future. But this is just downright silly. Especially when racing games as a genre is one of the best and immersive uses for VR technology. I'm surprised to see people defend this, unless you're joking with me of course and sometimes I can be bad at detecting it.

Oh my god the last few seconds is torture to watch.

 

Note: I'm not saying the silly idea itself is awkward. The audience's silence after the demonstration is purely cringe.

Even Phill is like.... "wtf?"

Just like motion controls, 3D, Kinect and second screens

Translation - "We tried making our own VR experience but it was to hard and didn't work. We love Oculus though so we bought this partnership instead :) " The MS way..

To be honest, I never cared a lot for VR and thought it was a waste of time, but this is on a whole other level. They're really redefining what it means to play in virtual reality with an awesome brand-new concept and innovative idea. Day one buy.


Thanks for the confirmation. Moving on ;)

Sorry I had to.

That just looked dumb and useless. People should have booed after watching that.

A Virtual Reality.... Plays in living room... To play video game... Absolutely pointless, and they should've tested first person perspective IN the car.

On another note, you guys are really bad at detecting irony.

To be fair, it's pretty hard to detect irony from a forum post without knowing the user better. I thought you were serious at first too.

As for this video, man, that's pretty bad - both feature and crowd reaction.
