I saw Linus post a picture on Instagram that he got in the mail. Do you guys think he should do a review?

Wishing leads to ambition and ambition leads to motivation and motivation leads to me building an illegal rocket ship in my backyard.

If he posted it on instagram and he got one... Yeah I'd expect a review.

 

More specifically, Luke probably will.

I think he will? I think he said that on the WAN show

Actually Linus has the Vive. He talked about it on the (last?) WAN show

Ya I knew he owned one. Just wondering if he was actually going to review it or not.

The Vive that they have currently is the companies. Linus have done some testing with it himself at home, and after that it was turned over to Luke and is back at their office for when they are going to work out the review.

 

A couple of the LMG members have tried it out so far at the office.

 

So yes, there is going to be a Vive review. All in due time.

I dont think Linus should review it. I think Luke should be the one. Only because I feel he has more experience with the Rift, so he might be able to offer more to us than Linus. I feel Luke is more of a VR nerd also. Id also like to see other members of the LMG staff give their impressions on VR.  

I just want to sit back and watch the world burn.

He hinted that review might already be done, like testing part from it. He talked about it multiple times during PAX Q&A with Intel. The filming part might be bit delayed because of all the launch events that have been going on for past weeks.

I agree. By Linus, I suppose I meant lmg in general.

Luke has a video about it on Vessel already. Will be on youtube in 5-6 days. @christianled59 Linus also did a little "first experiences" video with it in his house. Idk where that video is in their release schedule though.

I answered no, because, of course, Luke will in all likelihood do the review, not Linus ;)
