Not really. MS is also a gaming company. Facebook is in no way a VR or emerging tech company. Are we really going to take seriously this "all big companies are alike" attitude?
I wish the Oculus guys all the luck in the world, but I see myself buying a Sony or MS headset well before I'd consider the Oculus, which would require a gaming PC that dwarfs my current PC. My current PC plays just about everything at high or near high. The idea that I need a $1200 machine to do 1080p (or higher) per eye at 60 fps is kinda rough. From a culture point of view, it fits in with the hardcore gamer crowd. What does Facebook remotely know about that crowd? How does 'the social' intersect remotely with that crowd, especially since that crowd is so sick of tacked on social crap. I share the doubts that Notch has and with good reason.
