Facebook buys Occulus Rift

[Siel]

I'm excited to announce that we've agreed to acquire Oculus VR, the leader in virtual reality technology.

Our mission is to make the world more open and connected. For the past few years, this has mostly meant building mobile apps that help you share with the people you care about. We have a lot more to do on mobile, but at this point we feel we're in a position where we can start focusing on what platforms will come next to enable even more useful, entertaining and personal experiences...

The price? 2 billion dollars.

I'm actually glad this happened. The VR IZ DA FUTURE people were pissing me off. Enjoy the virtual reality of farmville, fags!

Not a joke? Oh well, if the Rift's now owned by a publicly listed company it's time to abort.

Died, before it could really live. Sad.

And here I thought Valve was going to buy Occulus.

This is what Mark Zuckerberg has to say:

I love that a hardware developer with a physical product got so much less than WhatsApp.

Can't wait until Facebook buys DoubleFine.

 

[Humanity has risen!]

Garbage gimmick that no zone cared about to begin with. Have they not learned of the monumental flop of 3D HDTVs? People don't want this sort of stuff our eyes are not made to use comfortably.

 

[Unkillable Cat]

CCP (of EVE Online fame) are releasing a Oculus-exclusive title, I wonder how this will screw that up?

Leader in virtual reality. Lolol. Isn't something required to exist before you can be a leader of it?

Yup, welp they sold out and there goes Oculus :/
Still think VR is going to be big, but I really hope not spearheaded by them anymore.

Had my suspicions that something like this might happen along the line since the guy that became their CEO (Brendan Iribe) was also founder and CEO of Scaleform that they sold to Autodesk and later Gaikai that they sold to SONY: http://www.linkedin.com/in/brendaniribe

But I didn't think they would do it at such an early stage and I hoped all the other influences in the company would counteract the urge till they at least got to market with a working product... and I also hoped it would be to a better company. :/

I just realized that this means John Carmack is working for Facebook. Ha. Ha ha.

Might be better than working for Bethesda
