Is mapping a game over real-life not a form or AR? The normal game screen in Pokemon Go takes "the real world" (streets, locations) and augments it to make it part of the game.
I suppose it could be considered AR. But where do you draw the line? Is Google Maps with certain businesses outlined AR because it's an augmented version of the real world?
Personally I limit what I consider AR to be graphics superimposed on a real world view. With the maps in Pokemon GO, the real world and game are distinct, almost like VR.
