Given that Oculus finances games while HTC/Valve doesn't do it that sounds dubious to me.
edit: Not impossible, just dubious. Most game devs at the moment only do VR if someone pays them as VR doesn't pay for itself, not even with all three platforms.
- eropple 10y agoI am not aware of any games not built by Oculus that are permanent Rift exclusives (and those will probably be hacked to work on the Vive anyway and the developers know about it). They'll all end up everywhere eventually. This is going to be commoditized, and just like PC games tend to settle to the level of the consoles in the market around the time of release, that doesn't leave a lot of space for the extra toys of any one. For a similar situation: how many multi-platform games retooled to use the SIXAXIS controller in more than a perfunctory way? (Not many.)
