Oculus VR Separates itself from Immersive Technology Alliance

VRFocus - Last week VRFocus reported on the formation of the Immersive Technology Alliance (ITA), a consortium of companies dedicated to supporting technologies such as virtual reality (VR). Oculus Rift maker Oculus VR was originally listed as a member, but has recently separated itself from the group.

EA joins and then Oculus leaves... 10/10 Oculus.

SteamPowered4482d ago

Oculus must just be going it alone. With all the Dev kits sold out, I can imagine they are already getting support from developers as it is. Valve is supporting the Rift in big ways as well. So are they worried about pooling ideas? Was there philosophical differences?

WeAreLegion4482d ago

If there's one thing I've learned about this team, it's that they're not for sale. I imagine one or more companies wanted a bit more influence with Oculus, so they left. Valve helps, but they are hands-off. These people respect the technology more than money.

LordDhampire4482d ago

Everyone is for sale, and if they try to take this on alone its just gonna be another ouya/onlive/nvidia shield and despite what you say about how you own it and its fun...it is a waste of money to not only you but the makers

WeAreLegion4482d ago

Good. They're too good for that.

That's fine. GT7 would overshadow it anyway at it has open wheel and regular cars.

Should have been spending their time updating Squadrons with better resolution, frame rate, haptics, etc as there isn't a game like that on PS VR 2 yet.

But it's EA. They don't think.

Babadook71139d ago

I agree. It would sell better on PSVR2 right now.

Knushwood Butt1139d ago (Edited 1139d ago )

A wasted opportunity, but I don't buy EA / Codemasters stuff anyway. Grid Legends just came out on Plus and I haven't touched it. Why would I when I have GT7 and PSVR2?

Abnor_Mal1139d ago

Not into F1 racing, but still a missed opportunity.

ApocalypseShadow1139d ago

That's where opportunity presents itself that they could offer something else that other developers haven't offered yet. Yeah. There's No Man's Sky. But a space game with a story would be great. Like the old days with Colony Wars.

Abnor_Mal1139d ago

Exactly, they could have possibly lured more players just from the inclusion of a vr mode.

I miss Colony wars and G-Police, Low-Fi I hope will scratch that itch when it releases. We also need a vr War/Starhawk game.

Knushwood Butt1139d ago

Just watched the trailer of Low-Fi. Most definitely on my radar.
