Well, by all accounts the actual device sounds like it is really as good as the promo video shows it to be. If it's as good as it looks then it could be big, not gimmicky, the ability to do any one of those things would be astounding and actually useful, unlike every aspect of the kinect apart from voice control-which is limited because it's pretty shit.

Gaming-wise this could have any number of applications, it seems as if it can still function as an Oculus-style VR device whilst also doing the things Google glass wanted to do. MS should be sending out kits soon and the technology seems to be well developed already, 7 years is a good chunk of time after all. By the end of 2015 we could have a VR battle of HoloLens vs Morpheus vs Oculus, a truly next-gen console war-finally.

Also, holograms IRL in time for Star Wars ep7, nuff said

I wonder if this is going to be forced in the next Xbox.

Or we can stick to gaming being in a tv whilst we play using a controller? I swear this VR shit is only for pigs that want to make digital sex a thing.
