TL;DR: Facebook takes over the Oculus Rift for 2 billions. Lots of indie devs abandoned the ship (including Notch), hopefully more devs will follow.

And gamers get -censored- over again, as per usual.

 

Guess the lessons we can learn from this are:

1/- Don't trust kickstarter projects

2/- We should've stuck with the virtual boy, however shitty it was, at least it wasn't owned by a company who'd buy your very house if they could.

Noooooo!

As I Star Citizen backer I had high hopes for Oculus Rift as my virtual cockpit. [REDACTED] Facey-spacey stickin their [REDACTED] nose in where it isn't wanted or needed!

Who needs Star Citizen when you can have Farmville in VR dude?Seriously though, does ****erberg think he's fooling anyone with him saying that they won't interfere with the development of the oculus rift?I don't think I ever wanted any project to crash and burn miserably more than this.
