There are plenty of games on Steam that list only Vive support. As the Vive uses OpenVR how come they don't work on the Rift? Is It possibly to get them to work, it seems a shame we getting HMD specific games especially as the Vive has software to allow Rift support.
I'm not certain that Vive exclusives are a real thing. I've downloaded free demo's from Steam that only list the Vive, but I was still able to see them with my Rift. However, due to the current absence of Touch controllers, I wasn't able to do much - and often times couldn't get beyond the menu screen. Yet I was definitely inside the games VR environment.
It'll be interesting to see how many Vive games will support Touch the day it comes out (or by the time most of us have our hands on it, at least).
I know a couple people around here have got their hands on developer units, so hopefully those people can give us an idea of what (notable titles) already have that support and what don't.
It's hard being the voice of reason when you're surrounded by unreasonable people.
