the oculus rift isn't even out and modders r already hard at work making drivers to get some current games running on it... the list so far:

Games currently with full or partial support: - Left 4 Dead - Half-Life 2 - Portal 2 - Skyrim - Mirror's Edge - AaaaAAAAA!!!!!!!! - Unreal Tournament 3 - Dear Esther - DiRT 2.. i will say this is a good star i'm sure there be others.

The PC community is always very pro-active about stuff like thism, mainly because we have the freedom to do it. Same with modding games. It's a very open platform (not always) and allows for a lot of tinkering and tweaking.

That's pretty cool too, can't wait to see what this gadget is like.

I want to keep an open mind about OR but I think I'm gonna sit this one out. At least until it gets smaller. Much smaller.

Skyrim on the Occulus Rift would be amazing, assuming this thing lives up to the hype.

I'm surprised how really cool the Rift is looking; head tracking in general is ****ing cool - been using my webcam to enable it in ArmA, FSX, DCS and so on, but there's some serious potential with that thing. Otherwise yeah, that's development communities for you - look at what people achieve with all manner of hardware, from the Kinect to the Steel Battalion controller on the PC.

kb+m seemed annoying to me at first, I couldn't get used to it. Now that I have I don't know how I played without it. Controllers as terribly imprecise and clumsy

If there's a way, we'll find it.  If there isn't a way, we'll make one.

I get a headache playing Mirror's Edge just on normal TV (well, moreso watching others play). I can't imagine the nausea I'd get to enjoy playing it with OR .

I still think someone should get it to work with Amnesia. That would be a heart attack waiting to happen.

That was the first game I thought of when I heard about it for the first time. Amnesia is tense enough as is, I honestly can't imagine how cool it would be with the OR. They should get it working for A machine for pigs anyway

No I wanted that since I first heard of OR :P. Didn't know there were modders working on making it come true though :). I actually think puzzle/exploration games and survival horror will work better than shooters. Control the aim with your head may be a bit iffy (have to try to make sure). Slower games should work more easily.

Supporting the Oculus Rift is the next logical step when it comes to improving gaming. Especially PC gaming. Obviously I'm going to support it, just like I've supported games that are trying to change PC gaming. Like Star Citizen.

I'm well aware of that. And I'd be supporting OR even if Star Citizen wasn't going to have it.
