Oculus Rift at WSGF, Indie Explosion & More
Oculus Rift at the WSGF
The Oculus Rift has made a lot of positive waves recently in the gaming community. It was prominently featured at QuakeCon, and has been wholly endorsed by John Carmack, Gabe Newell and Cliff Bleszinski. As a gaming site focused on visuals and visual immersion, the WSGF is quite excited about the virtual doorways the Oculus Rift can open. We'd like to get one to review here at the site, and see if we can provide a few to our dedicated developers (HaYDeN, dopefish, etc.). We've started a short donation drive to help cover these costs, and gauge your interest.
