Worth noting that’s not the date you should check back, more of a “by this date” suggestion. Reservations are still being served regularly, so keep an eye out for that email.

A queue system really undercuts any scalper that would consider the controller a good target. There will of course be people without patience that could payout, but the larger market will just wait until their turn to order comes up. Seems like a bad investment for someone that relies on FOMO to profit.

Average lifetime for consumer brushless motors seems to be ~10,000 hours, so far from “the heat death of the universe”. Regardless, I’m not sure why you’re being so dismissive and rude about it.

Are rumble motors not physical machines that wear out with use? Or is there some new tech that I’m unaware of?

This would wear out the motors a lot, right? Not that people shouldn’t do what they want with their stuff, I would just be worried about wear and tear.
All these concern trolling articles about Valve’s “monopoly”. We never get this shit about Youtube, Windows, local ISPs and other utilities, etc. Super subtle, guys.
If Gaben leaves or dies, Valve is probably fucked.
Considering the size of the game, it would need at least 3 discs. Doubt they’re gonna redesign every case to accommodate that.
