I don´t know, if all of that stuff is really included but somebody broke down the 600$ pricetag to this:
$60 - Xbox One Controller
$25 - Xbox Wireless Adapter
$95 - Tracking Camera
$30 - Oculus Remote
$60 - Eve Valkyrie
$30 - Lucky's Tale
$300 - Oculus Rift headset
If this is true or somewhat close then Oculus/Facebook seriously fucked up this launch...How bout nope to xbox controller? nope to wireless adapter? nope to eve? nope to lucky´s tale? Hell even the Camera isn´t neccessary...

Yeah, it kinda is, how do you think tracking works - without it, headset becomes just a head on a stick - this way you can actually move forward/backward or lean left/right, which is a big part of experience.

You do not need the camera to play a game in VR. Does the camera enhance the experience? yes, but it is not neccessary.
