The Oculus Rift is one of the most exciting innovations in gaming, and the virtual reality headset is one of the most exciting pieces of technology that is coming to the video game industry. The VR headset may be a bigger piece of technology than the recently released PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and different companies are working on creating their own versions of the virtual reality headset. While it was widely reported that Valve, the company behind Steam and the upcoming Steam Machines, was prototyping their own VR headset, but now it appears those plans have been dropped in favor of supporting the Oculus Rift. Valve announced at the Steam Dev Days conference that IGN attended that, despite rumors to the contrary; the company will not be putting out their own virtual reality technology and will instead focus on supporting the Oculus Rift on Steam. It is possible that Valve could eventually make their own VR headset, but in the near future it looks as though the company is throwing their weight behind Oculus Rift instead. Valve also stated that they believe that the PC will be the hotbed of virtual reality gaming and that the company expects commercial viable virtual reality gaming within two years.
