Not surprising to those following closely, Oculus appears to be having a subdued E3. There have been no additional hardware features or announcements, as everyone still eagerly awaits the DK2s to start shipping next month.
The lack of any word on a consumer version further increases speculation that we won't see a consumer product until sometimes next year.
With Oculus' booth just now opening up at E3, we should get a flood of impressions of new games being used with the DK2.
SUPERHOT
SUPERHOT is a unique first-person shooter game where time moves only when you move, making each level a deadly puzzle fueled by fluid time mechanics and relentless foes. It’s one of the most fun experiences we’ve seen on the Rift.
“The project started out during last year's 7 Day First Person Shooter game jam, where we decided to make something that really stood out in the genre - a title that felt satisfying, while not requiring superhuman reflexes. Something like a game of real-time chess, except that all the pawns are out there to murder you.” - SUPERHOT Team
Lucky's Tale
Lucky’s Tale is a new made-for-VR adventure by the team at Playful. Introduced in last week’s blog, Lucky’s Tale is a “delightful platforming adventure game” designed exclusively for the Rift that reimagines the genre from the ground up.
Alien: Isolation
Creative Assembly’s Alien: Isolation™ is a new survival horror game set in the Alien™ universe. A terrifying experience, particularly in virtual reality, Isolation is all about survival.
In the E3 Rift demo, you’ll use every tool at your disposal to escape from a ruthless Alien in the wreckage of your spaceship. Underpowered and underprepared, you’ll scavenge resources and improvise solutions; not just to succeed, but to survive
EVE: Valkyrie
EVE: Valkyrie is the highly anticipated multiplayer, space-dogfighting shooter being developed by CCP and co-published by Oculus. Valkyrie, running on the Rift HD Prototype, was a contender for Game of Show at last year’s E3. It returns, but with an all new style, running on the graphical horsepower of Unreal Engine 4.

No Man's Sky has been "experimenting" with Oculus Rift support. No official word yet, but people are really hoping it is officially supported. Here's the E3 gameplay trailer:

Best quote I've found so far:
The first consumer version will be a lot better than DK2 [the current developer kit] - a lot better. There’s a lot of unannounced things we can’t talk about, but it’s going to be a lot smaller, a lot lighter, cheaper, wider field of view, higher resolution and higher framerate.

No Man's Sky looks neat for sure and obviously I'm looking forward to Valkyrie; but Superhot coming to the Rift has really got me excited.
