@wohlf:

I guess it's nice to know that somebody somewhere is making something for it.

Why try to get people hyped when there's no Rift coming out for a while...

What is the "point" of any exclusive? I attract people to the device, to ensure a consistent experience.

The whole philosophy behind the Rift is that games will need to be designed with it in mind, not retrofitting others. The opposite should hold true as well. I personally plan on getting an Oculus Rift on day one.

@artikay: Is this the evolution of that, then (as in, from the same guy)? I was wondering while watching this video, because I remember Patrick playing that and it does seem very similar.

Didn't Patrick play this or a prototype of it on Worth Playing at some point?

Why is there no Tron game for the rift? This is an abhorrent oversight. It must be rectified at once!!

Any good reason why this has to be on Rift? Wouldn't a mouse pointer with a scroll wheel do just as good?

Is it really worth developing something only for an unreleased device with a small install base? Just curious, I'm just not really seeing the benefits of locking this into the Rift.
