  2. Are Virtual Reality Headsets Going to be Successful?

    [quote user="ICN3D"] Plus since there will be 3 different VR headsets as there is OR, Sony's Morpheus, and I hear MS is trailing behind and finally deciding to look into it....devs aren't want to make 3 different versions of their game for 3 different VR
    headsets.[/quote]

    That's a good point. I can't imagine VR headsets having a big market, so possibly having three available may spell disaster.

    Ready for VR? Get Ready to Pay!

    The point was that you don't necessarily need to experience something to know it is bad.

    The point I made was that the games they have at the moment for VR don't need VR. Can you really say that a third person platformer couldn't be played on a television?

    It's like Kinect at the moment. Games might be "Better With VR" but they aren't games that wouldn't be great without it.

    VR needs a game where the VR headset is essential.

    Microsoft to do something at E3 that has never been done at E3

    Occulus Rift was at last years E3, I believe....plus it will be there this year probably and Sony is showcasing their VR headset as well.

    From what I've read and heard....MS has no VR headset in the making.

    If they do show a VR headset...it's one of the best kept secrets ever. Then again....why would you keep something like that a secret?

    Oculus Quest/Rift on Xbox

    I would love to play the Xbox One S/X in a VR headset. Just play standard games with your Xbox controller! I don't want to buy a 65-70" TV to fully immerse myself in the game. A VR headset would be a great solution for me. I hope that enthusiasts will
    develop a device that would pair the VR headset and Xbox One, be sure to support such a project financially.

    Xbox One s

    Nothing has changed if you liked xbox in the past with out vR then that is still the case so microsoft not doing VR shouldnt make any differnce too you. However that said just because there not doing anything for VR right now doesnyt mean that they wont
    in the furtre. I cant see xbox ever making a VR headset but what i can see is a xbox app on other VR headsets that will let you plkay your xbox games some with VR patches.

    When is VR support coming to Xbox?

    I fully support MS not wasting reources on developing a VR unit for xbox. I don't think they need to though. Just allow 3rd party studios to add VR support for games on XBOX and patch in support for existing VR headsets.

    Xbox and VR headset

    The problem with having a VR headset is that game developers would either:

    A: Create a game purely for the VR headset

    B: Create modes in games purely for VR headset

    Both of these are fine, but as we all know Microsoft hasn't been great at just getting enough AAA games out, if they were to release a headset, it would hurt their already fragile game release record.

    Id rather they concentrate on getting great games out first, then perhaps in a few years announce a headset.

    Final thought, I've tried VR and yes it is fun, but in a very gimmicky way. A lot of VR games I couldn't play purely because they made me feel really sick very fast. The games that I could play were more of your 3D platformer games like Moss or Astro Bot, good fun games in their own right, but not enough to buy a headset for.
