Saw a article about this on ign, facebook wants to be like amazon. They want to own everything and anything :)

We were in talks about maybe bringing a version of Minecraft to Oculus. I just cancelled that deal. Facebook creeps me out.

Indeed.

Suddenly I don't want an Oculus Rift anymore. Oh well.

Well, I'm withholding belief until the 2nd or so, because sometimes people do longer running pranks that start a bit early. Experience dictates that the entire last week of March should be approached with a salt shaker in hand. A salt shaker whose cap and contents you've personally verified, for that matter.

Sam: That video sums up my feelings on this pretty well.

These comments seem to agree.

Facebook needs to buy other things because it won't be worth anything in another year or two.
