>Oculus was their first, real consumer hardware release and effort.

Remember the Facebook phone? Oh wait, right, no one does...

Ironically made by... HTC. (The Rift is probably the first FB consumer device where they were completely responsible for the hardware.)

To be fair they bought Oculus after the hardware had been created and funded by crowd sourcing.

The first and second development kits, sure, but the consumer version was developed after the acquisition.

You mean the lessons they stole from Valve? (Couldn't resist)

Guess everyone forgets that...

Considering the widespread outrage and very public fallout with Mojang, I don't think everyone has quite forgotten just yet.

It's a real shame oculus has gone down this path. Previously I thought VR was a dumb gimmick that wouldn't go anywhere. After getting a vive though my mind has completely changed. I hope the other companies getting into the space don't try to ruin it.
