I wonder where the Oculus Rift is headed

I was looking around for some info on what they are doing, since I think it's a cool idea, and ran into some things I hadn't expected -

Articles about planned XBox compatibilty (forgot to copy those links)

Rift is developing exclusive content - 20 games - Farmville VR?

big thread on Reddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/c ... _you_dont/

system specs atm seem to be quadcore cpu -3-4 ghx, Gtx 970, 8 Gigs ram, USB 3.0

Anyone else looked at this lately? Or anyone using one? I like what they say in the reddit thread about creating a VR standard similar to DirectX - hook it up and play - but that looks like it is way down the pike.

I know people are using the #2 model on ED, and presumably other games.

ED is the game that would convince me to spend the money on Oculus.

there's a boatload of stuff on the official ED forums - https://forums.frontier.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=69

I looked around on local Craigslist and someone has one for $200 - will check that out since the $$ is about what I'm willing to spend to try this.
