Oculus Rift Loses Doom 3 BFG Edition From Launch Package, But Gains TF2

Posted by Unknown on from the still-get-to-shoot-virtual-people dept.

skade88 writes "Neoseeker and the Verge are reporting that the Oculus Rift launch will no longer have Doom 3 BFG support. But in some good news to offset the bad, Valve will be releasing an Oculus ready version of TF2 when the Dev kits ship. For those backers who are upset about not having Doom 3 BFG edition support on launch of the Oculus Rift, they are offering the following options: '$20 Steam Wallet credit ... $25 Oculus Store credit ... or a full refund for your pledge.'"

    (Not unless your definition of a 'game' is just walking around looking at the detail in the graphics.)

    Yeah, Doom 3 has an extremely detailed black screen. I'd take $25 to not own it.
