Microsoft Gave GTA 5 Boss A Demo Of Its Mysterious VR Tech

Strauss Zelnick says he got a demo of Microsoft's enhanced reality project during a trip to the company's headquarters.

Microsoft is now letting people outside the company try out its long-in-development "enhanced reality" technology. Grand Theft Auto parent publisher Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick said today on Bloomberg TV that he was invited to Microsoft's headquarters to try it out. It is unclear, however, if Zelnick got to see the RoomAlive demo or Microsoft's other secret VR project.
Whatever the case, Zelnick said he was excited with what he saw.

"The demo that I had was at Microsoft's headquarters in a room given over to this [technology], and you had an immersive headset on, and there are characters that appear to be real, and you'e interacting with the characters and they're not real, and it's pretty extraordinary," he said.
Though he was floored by the demo, Zelnick said he's not sure yet about its commercial appeal.

Microsoft has been planning Xbox One virtual reality/augmented reality technology (pictured above) since 2010, according to documents that emerged two years ago. According to the documents, users would wear glasses that would run on wireless connections to interact with the Xbox One. For its part, Microsoft has been open in saying that virtual reality is something the company has been experimenting with for a long time now. Competitor Sony announced its own virtual reality device, Project Morpheus, during GDC in March 2014.
A Take-Two representative told GameSpot that "this was something [Zelnick] saw several years ago." We have also reached out to Microsoft for further clarification.


On the subject of VR in general, Zelnick reiterated that, while he's excited about the potential of such technology, it must overcome technical and logistical hurdles before it becomes ubiquitous. "There are plenty of issues for using an immersive headset for the kind of video games that we make," he said. "Because, among other things, how are you going to see your controller? How does this controller interact with this immersive space?"

He also said he recently got a demo of Project Morpheus and enjoyed it a lot. Asked straight-up if gaming was ready for VR, Zelnick said "not yet." However, he stressed that if VR does become dominant, Take-Two will line up to support it with games.
"Part of it is we have to see how the headsets roll out and how we can best deliver an experience. We are concerned that you play our games for a long period of time and we don't want people getting nauseated. Having had the experience, I'm not sure how long you want an immersive headset on your head. We'll find out. I will say this, if that's what consumers want, we'll be first in line to give it to them."
Zelnick also responded to a host's suggestion that VR could make people anti-social, something Zelnick himself cited previously as one of the potential problems for VR. Now, Zelnick says as culture expands, companies like Take-Two need to embrace change or they run the risk of getting left behind.

He said his great grandparents had similar qualms about jazz music, his grandparents about rock and roll, and his parents about hip hop. "Culture morphs and we all have to embrace the exciting new opportunities in culture," he said.

Prachtig.

 

Zou leuk zijn als het een multiplatform titel betreft. Hoewel...tegen de tijd dat die game uit is, dan staat hier echt allang wel een PS4 en dan maakt dat ook niks meer uit.

 

Mogelijk nieuwe gaming console met AMD APU.

Even grof erdoor,

AMD heeft 2 nieuwe semi-custom APU's in de maak. 1 gebaseerd op X86 en 1 op ARM architectuur.
Eén van de APU's is voor een 'beyond gaming' apparaat en de andere voor een nog onbekende gaming console.

Mijn speculatie n.a.v. artikel,

X86 'beyond gaming'.
ARM voor gaming console.

ARM, denk ik aan Android, aka Google?

herpderp, dit kan leuk worden.

 

Erg benieuwd! maar deze was tijdelijke exclusief toch?

 

Als het voor concurrentie kan zorgen voor MS en Sony is het altijd welkom, altijd goed nieuws voor ons. Maar ik vraag het me af met al die....nieuwe andere consoles.

 

London, UK. -- December 15, 2014 -- Capcom, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today announced that DmC Devil May Cry: Definitive Edition will be available to purchase as a digital download and at retail across Europe and North America for the PlayStation(R)4 computer entertainment system and Xbox One(R), the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft, starting March 17, 2015 for RRP $39.99 / EUR 39.99 / GBP 29.99. Devil May Cry 4 Special Edition will be available for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in Summer 2015.



Dus DmC komt op huidige gen maar DMC4 dus ook. Wut.

 

Wtf

Toch ga ik DmC halen als die ~15 eu is. Toffe game.

 

In plaats van met een gloednieuwe te komen, komen ze met een remaster, ja we hebben daar al zo weinig van. Kortom het gaat in 2015 ook rustig door met de remasters, lol. Volgende is : Dragon' s Dogma.

 

Ik word nu wel een beetje moe van die remasters. Zeker met games waar niemand er echt op zit te wachten. Sleeping Dogs was ook zo voorbeeld.

 

Ik wil alleen nog een Skyrim remaster, voor de rest helemaal niks meer

 

Zelda Twilight Princess plz

 

Ik zou graag nog twee remasters willen zien.

Super Mario Galaxy I en II voor de Wii U. Hell yeah!

Inderdaad zou Twilight Princess ook heel gaaf zijn. Nooit goed kunnen spelen.

 

Shenmue or gtfo.

 

November 2016 is TP 10 jaar oud, ik hoop dat 'ie een soortgelijke behandeling gaat krijgen als Wind Waker

Maar eerder mag ook ofc

 

Idd, geef Shenmue!

 

Mechassalt voor mij graag!

 

Dit begint ondertussen wel de remake generatie te worden. En dan niet eens remakes van games die het echt verdienen, omdat ze al van een paar generaties geleden zijn.
