Today's News:
1) Update to the recent news of Facebook buying Oculus VR as Facebook denies rumors of the Oculus Rift being rebranded with Facebook logos and interface while also stating they won't get actively involved with Oculus VR's Rift tech and VR plans. Oculus VR themselves also confirmed they will retain majority control over their work and the new deal being valuable because of the steady supply of cash now available for the Rift project.
