I do hope they port it to mac and Linux. It is written in C++, and should offer good performance boost to those platforms, too.

While it is written in C++, unfortunately they also used DirectX to write it :/ OpenGL is completely cross platform, however DirectX (specifically the newer ones) are much faster, but limited to Windows.

Wine Is Not Emulation

Basically a set of libraries that run on mac and linux to mimmick all the Windows dependancies, so that native Windows applications can be run. Its not perfect, but it can somtimes get the job done.

Begin the wave of 12 year olds nagging their parents to buy a $350+ vr helmet so they can scream down the microphone in full 360 degree vision.

MOM! I ASKED YOU FOR CHOCOLATE MILK WHERE IS IT!!!!!

In all seriousness though. Heres my two cents on this.

"You know that game you played that got stale after 5 months? Well, now you can play it on occulus and wait that gimmick to go stale with this game too!".

I'd be more excited with Occulus + Mirrors Edge Catalyst
