Palmer Luckey, inventor of the Oculus Rift VR gaming system, has a simple ambition. Luckey, the 21-year-old founder of Oculus VR, is readying his machine for launch in 2015 and recently shipped Version 2 of the Software Development Kit. Oculus Rift is a head-mounted virtual reality system that has won widespread praise --and backing--from the likes of Jon Carmack and Gabe Newell. In a recent interview with Kotaku UK, Palmer said "We see one in every home. But, just at launch we need to be realistic.The people who are going to be buying this initially are going to be gamers--probably hardcore gamers--and they're going to be the ones with PCs most capable of running it."
