High speed police chase ends tragically for Reisse and the Oculus team.

A senseless and tragic accident has robbed Oculus VR of one of its founding members. Andrew Scott Reisse died on Thursday after being struck by a car pursued by police. Coworkers report that Andrew was out for a walk when the incident occurred, and the entire team is stunned and saddened by the loss. 

"Andrew was a brilliant computer graphics engineer, an avid photographer and hiker who loved nature, a true loyal friend, and a founding member of our close-knit Oculus family," the company said in a statement. "Andrew's contributions span far and wide in the video game industry. His code is embedded in thousands of games played by millions of people around the world," the statement said. "Words can not express how sorely he will be missed or how deeply our sympathy runs for his family."

Min-Liang Tan likes to think he builds a Macbook for the Windows gaming community.

Razer CEO Min-Liang Tan has a history of being somewhat outspoken, and in a recent interview with The Verge he didn’t pull any punches when it came to the fumbles of his competitors. "We don't think the PC is dying. Rather, what's killing the PC industry isn't the PC itself, but PC makers.” Tan claims his company’s two year old lineup of Blade laptops is a shining example of the types of innovative products HP and Dell aren’t producing.
