I want this! Looks amazing, and I can only imagine playing Cuphead in this! 🙂

I was actually thinking the same thing about Cuphead after watching the video.  When MS first introduced the streaming of your Xbox games to the PC, I was more like naw, rather play it on my nice TV then on my monitor and if the family was using the TV I just rather wait.  If playing something like Cuphead on one of these VR devices and it feels like you are playing on a 100 inch TV screen, I could get behind that but of course I would like to experiece it first before making that decision.

100"?

I bought a projector that fire up 300" and I'll say when using PSVR it uses almost all my eye space and looks like that 300"

It is a VR headset. MS is just confusing people by calling it a mixed reality headset. The current crop can't do AR at all, the camera on the front is purely for inside out tracking. What it can do is present a real obstacle, like a wall or table, as a virtual surface in VR by use of inside out tracking. It's till VR though and not all that different from the chaperone system on other VR headsets.

How suitable it is for VR games all depends on the added lag of the inside out tracking system, persistance of the LCD displays, and responsiveness and limits of the controllers. (only tracked in view)



Hmm, that Samsung one looks alright.
