I find it funny that people were going on about how the Vive would cost so much less than the Oculus back when the price was revealed back in early January. I felt that the fact that there’ll be more hardware coming with the Vive would cause the price to be higher, and it appears

I think that this is some interesting news, I’d prefer a game that allows more exploration, like Elite: Dangerous, but this game does look very nice.

Well, this isn’t really all that surprising… Facebook makes most of its money from ads, so of course their director of Ads wants ads on all of their products. It’s just sad that they want to push them into the faces of people that want to use the Oculus. The Oculus Rift was pretty much
