From what I've gathered

2400x1080 screen. yes. 1200x1080 PER EYE
Positional tracking without camera but via wireless connection to steam base station
Controllers similiar to razer hydras. Possibly also connecting to steam base station.

So the whole pack will be: hmd, 2 controllers, base station.... 100000$ here I go... Sad

if haptic feedback is still part of the finalized controller, we'll get the touch as well as the sight, truly a mesmerizing experience, especially if combined with a good headset

"Microsoft millionaire" Gabe Newell is now considered a billionaire according to Forbes. Of course it's all just speculation.

http://www.forbes.com/billionaires/list/

Quote:
#1415 Gabe Newell $1.3 B (Valve, videogames)
#1415 Markus Persson $1.3 B (Minecraft)


The difference between Newell and Notch is that Notch already sold his business to become a billionaire. If Newell sells Valve (which he won't at least for a long while) he is going to become several billions richer.

if you look at bank account, notch, might be richer than Gabe, but I believe he still owns most of Valve
the reason Gabe net worth isn't considered higher is because Valve is a private company, and therefore has no "official" value

but we all know that Valve value is much much higher than minecraft (probably in the likes of twitter, 30 billion USD, or even higher)

Some more details on what work Warren Spector did for Valve (if you remember the reveal a few years ago). It was supposed to be a full blown HL2 episode. http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2015/04/24/half_2d00_life-abandoned-lost-episode-magnet-gun-valve-warren-spector.aspx


Quote:
"Valve actually stepped in and saved us, frankly," Spector says. "We were doing some concept development for them for a year, maybe even two. While at the same time I was doing concept for Disney on what became Epic Mickey. It was pretty exciting. Doing a startup is a little like jumping off a cliff, and I had to pay payroll out of my pocket for a while. It was pretty crazy, but the core of that team stayed with me and we ultimately ended up doing some pretty cool stuff with Disney."

"We were working on an episode," Spector says. "[Valve] was really into episodic content at that point. We were working on an episode that would fill in one of the gaps in the Half-Life story. So we were trying to flesh out a specific part of the world of Half-Life and we created a new tool. A thing we elegantly called the Magnet Gun, which I still wish they would do something with. We came up with so many cool ways to use a magnet gun that were completely different from anything [Valve] had done and was really freeform in its use. I still think it'd be cool, but when the deal with Disney really started to bear fruit, I just couldn't say no to Disney. I'd always wanted to work there, so we never completed the work with Valve."


We got Epic Mickey instead Poker Face

I can fully believe that Valve took the opportunity to classify her as contractor for the tax benefits (all corporations do shit like that).

The other allegations, of people calling her "it", etc, even if true, good luck proving them.

In any case, as almost always, this 99% will be settled out of court in a few years from now. She will get some thousand dollars and sign an NDA and that's it.
