I feel like I'm really oversimplifying it, but whoever gets to market first gets my money.

I'd like to do the same for not giving me NOLF3.

This presentation is pretty crucial for them. They lost a lot of momentum when the Vive was announced.
Hoping to be wowed today, otherwise they could become a laughing stock. Then again, they've had several years to prepare for this presentation so I don't see that happening.

A laughing stock?
This isn't 3DHead were talking about.

That's what we're hoping for, yes. And input and games etc

I'll be at lunch. Blast it all. Will have to watch when I get back.
Should be, but no one is 100% sure what all will be covered specifically.

Man, for Oculus to be come a laughing stock a lot of things would have to come together. Not happening.
2 hours according to GameInformer.
I'm gonna miss the start of this but do we reckon they'll put pre-orders up today?
Pre-order deposits, maybe.
What's the major points of inventions so far (all parties) since summer 2012?
- 2012 kickstarted Oculus Rift DK1
- Low persistence (2013)
- Timewarp (2013)
- Binaural/3D audio ('re-introduced' 2014, this has existed for a longer time)
- Late-latching (2015, up to 40% GPU perf. regained)
- Lighthouse laser tracking system, large space & almost no occlusion (2015)
Optics? Chaperone?

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
Let it all hang out so the VR war can truly begin.
Right now the Vive is best in class and Oculus has a lot to prove input wise. The new logo being some real "deep thinking / but actually shit" doesn't fill me with confidence.

That's pretty much Internet in a nutshell, where things are the best thing ever or mega awful. Nothing in between.

Sure, there's been a rising negativity towards them ever since the Vive unveiling. It was definitely a turning point in their public perception so I'm hoping they fire on all cylinders today.
How can the 3DHead be a laughing stock when it causes no headaches?
Fingers crossed then. Wanna make sure I secure one.

Well, you have to agree that these extremes are the most memorable press events... can't fault fans for wanting to have fun.

If I were on the net, that might work, but it doesn't on the app.
Never mind, stream is up!

Man, if preorders open today, I don't know what I'm gonna do. I want either Vive or Rift at launch, but I'm not sold on which yet. But in order to secure either, a preorder will absolutely be necessary. I hope can cancel a preorder with no hassle if it comes down to it.

What stream should I be using?
Oculus or Twitch?

Looks like I'm going to take a late lunch break (11:41 here) and I'm starving. Guess I'll pour some coffee to tide me over, because I'm not about to miss this.
