I don't fucking think so. Game looked scary enough without VR

I don't understand this criticism. VR is great for immersing one's self in worlds we couldn't normally experience; it's used to get as raw of an experience as possible. This type of game is perfect for such a technology. We complain so often that horror games are no longer scary, well, here you fucking go!

Seriously... how funny would it be if you took one of these and pushed it into someone's mouth when a facehugger hit...

Can you poop and ejaculate at the same time?
I'm going to get to find out.
This is the best news yet. I hope my PC is up to running this as it stands, because I'm not upgrading it until a couple of months after Alien Isolation comes out.

You're likely to get legit beat up for a prank like that.
Howver, I think you'd need some decent over-the-ear headphones.

Oh my.... Get your depends ready.
I can't even imagine playing this alone in a dark room with Oculus Rift

Oh my god.
Almost makes me want to cancel my PS4 preorder and wait until I get my Rift for it. Seems like it would be an amazing experience.
Really hope they get the consumer model out sooner rather than later, dying to buy one but don't really wanna go for pre consumer models just to buy another so soon after. Especially with Google Glass this year as well.
Going to build a new rig for my Rift at real ease, for when 60fps in stereo 3D at 1080p just isn't cutting it anymore.

I wonder how they are going to handle cut scenes (plenty in the trailers), camera shake and post-processing effects for this? All three are basically incompatible with VR best practices.
Assuming they're on it this could absolutely be an Oculus Rift killer app. The fact they are showing it in VR at E3 is an awesome indication of commitment.
Also having played my fair share of Rift horror demos this will probably dwarf any other horror experience on release. The feeling of horror in VR is the difference between a jump scare on TV and a jump scare in real life.

Holy shit. This is how it should be. It's a perfect combo.
I'm super intrigued even though I'm a major pussy.

OH SHIT! Fuck yeah! Can't wait to hear some DK2 impressions of it. Hopefully this means possible Morpheus support as well.

Yup, buying Oculus VR for sure.
Could you imagine building little motors into the Rift that caused it to tighten down when the thing attached? Gawd.
