During the HoloLens reveal in January, Microsoft showed off a , talking about base locations, describing enemy types, and offering strategies for success.

Perhaps it was because my HoloLens was not perfectly fitted to my face, but I had trouble seeing the full scene at my natural eye level. I had to tilt my head downwards somewhat to see the scene as it should be. This was a little unfortunate, but the overall demo was still very impressive.

Watch the video below to see it in action.

Microsoft was very clear that we were not allowed to take photos or shoot video. But the HoloLens headset I tried looked nearly identical to the one Microsoft showed off back in January. It felt relatively light on my head and fit comfortably after some adjustments.

It should also be noted that this was only an experience--and one conducted in a closed Microsoft environment, not in a home where you may eventually use HoloLens. In addition, there was no gameplay involved; I never held a controller. The experience served only as an elaborate introduction to Warzone.

The Halo demo was my first experience with HoloLens and it's one that left me pretty excited about the technology. Whereas Oculus Rift and Morpheus block out your entire vision and fully bring you into a virtual world, HoloLens blends the real world with the virtual for a different effect that is striking in an entirely new way.

HaloLens was meant to make you feel like an actual Spartan preparing for battle, but it's not quite there. While there is clearly some promise in this early stage, for now, it's just an experiment--albeit an impressive one.
