Facebook buys Oculus VR – It’s a Win Win – Here’s Why

onPause writes:

On the surface Facebook has no need for a Virtual Reality headset but it and Oculus VR looked past the surface and think that Oculus Rift will become the next big thing in computing after the personal computer, the internet and of course the cell phone.

I can't really see it as a win for gamers or people who supported their Kickstarter campaign.

People need to open up a little and stop it with the stick it to the man syndrome. What are the bad parts exactly besides fear and gamer angst? Depate please.

Can't play Minecraft anymore. That'll be a banner slogan in the weeks to come by gamers who didn't give a crap about minecraft to begin with and now think it was crucial to VR's success.

There's justifiable fear and anger about this deal. I feel it to. However we only have guesses as to what might happen.

Is it worth giving up on it? We'll see. But unless someone comes in with a similar solution that doesn't require a PS4 well...

Either nothing happens or Facebook rapes your brain via VR. Just have to wait and see. Takes more than a few hours for these things to actually occur.

You likey won't have to use the Facebook stuff. Unless you choose to. We know way to little to judge. But that's what we do best. Preconceived judgment.

After a couple days people will calm down and real... SQUIRREL!!!!

I wonder if Oculus Rift will even matter once Sony, Google and Microsoft release their VR units.

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.

Babadook71118d ago

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

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_Mal1118d ago

Not into F1 racing, but still a missed opportunity.

ApocalypseShadow1118d 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_Mal1118d 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 Butt1118d ago

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