Forums - Microsoft - MS: Oculus will not work natively on X1

http://www.hardcoregamer.com/2015/07/08/microsoft-oculus-rift-will-not-work-natively-with-xbox-one/157870/

Microsoft has responded to our request for clarification on this week’s rumor that the Xbox One will support the Oculus Rift when the final version ships next year, and it sounds pretty definitive: “To clarify, Oculus Rift will not work natively with Xbox One.”

Here’s the official statement the Microsoft spokesperson offered on the matter:


“We’ve said that Xbox One will be able to stream games through Windows 10 to the Rift, letting you play Xbox One games in your own virtual reality cinema. This means you can play your favorite Xbox games on a cinema screen in VR – it will be like playing games in your very own theater. We have nothing further to share at this time.”

Would have been surprised if it was true, this will put an end to the rumours



Around the Network

Virtual theater room DLC incoming.



they said "we have nothing further to share at this time" which means they will have something to share at some other time.  i think that basically confirms native support on xbox one is coming.



Most of us aren't surprised by this. After the comments made by Oculus devs on PC requirements, it was pretty silly for anyone to think it would happen.



It's pretty silly to think VR will be anything remotely good on XBO but also on PS4 and certainly on most PC beside decent to great gaming and even it'll still be pretty basic VR with far from ideally confortable hardware and yet to be proven ideal input systems...

I'll still wait for my AR/VR combo with seem less headgear in a decade or so before fapping for real until then it'll be just an other expensive toy I'll play around with just like the Kinect (love my Kinect btw)



Around the Network

So us naysayers were right after all.



I shall take my bow. I thought it was obvious but apparently not.

It was extremely silly. This is the same group of people who thought the cloud power would help games get to  1080 though so no surprise.



Expected.



But Xbone will have HoloLens.



Nintendo is selling their IPs to Microsoft and this is true because:
