Microsoft announces new VR headsets for Windows 10, starting at $299

could be good alternative for people on a budget

thoughts?

Really glad to see this. Although I can't view videos here currently, the description of their "mixed reality" concept is very interesting. It sounds like hololens lite, which is no bad thing IMO. Anything which can encourage mass adoption of VR will ultimately help keep it from prematurely going the way of the dodo, which I am all for.

Will wait and see what they actually release to consumers. Hopefully it isn't another Kinect.

Hmmm, those controllers look familiar!

Looks interesting.

Those controllers are not going to be good. They use the tracking cameras on the headset to work out their position in 3D space so if your hands are by your sides or behind you it won't know where they are.
