like they need to. facebook isnt a tech company, they will fail hard with oculus.
its just usefull for gaming and facebook isnt into gaming, and they dont have the money to make it work in the long run.


But Sony have said that it isnt and wont be just for gaming.  So are they wrong too?

Facebook isnt a tech company is one of the weirdest things I have ever heard.

sony has the content to make it a bit more than just gaming, but its mostly for gaming. our do u think everybody will use it for work or social connecting? gaming, movies and porn in the future(movies maybe, porn for sure).

and facebook isnt a real tech company, they dont have any outstanding tech,facebook as product isnt realy impressiv or won the race because its the best. they just dont have the knowhow. facebook is a one trick pony, not more.

Right.  Thats sure is some trick they have there....

Sony's content? you mean a movie back catalogue? what does that have to do with VR?

The biggest use of VR will be in education and science imo with a potential reach into things like documentaries and travel.

To use VR headsets and Social in the same breath is an oxymoron imo.


u can allready buy good VR equipment, its just costly(we have 1 in the lab for what ever reasons, i think someone tryed to use it for proteinmodelling or something like that.) for a college or industrie lab a 3k$ VR helmet isnt a big deal, and occulus cant compete with those helmets. and its just not usable for education for the next x years, the content isnt there, and u cant justify 25 VR gears for mediocre education material.

Oculus is aimed for the consumer, and the consumer just cant do a lot with VR
