6DOF Reviews is made up of a small but dedicated team of VR enthusiasts excited about the all-in-one VR experience that the Quest has made possible. We’re writers, gamers, and early-adopters who are dedicated to helping you navigate the gear, games, applications, and experiences that this new platform allows you to experience on the go and without the burden of complicated setups.
We review all the games and gear we can get our hands-on. Sometimes we buy the games or gear ourselves, and sometimes developers or manufacturers are kind enough to supply us with early game codes or sample units so that we can have our reviews ready by the time their games or accessories are released. In all cases, our goals are the same, to provide honest reviews to our readers.

Pete has been an avid console gamer since the mid 80's. In 2014 he stopped gaming altogether in order to focus on his new role as a dad until a chance outing took him to a VR arcade. Two weeks later, Pete had a Quest and has never looked back. Pete's favourite VR games are Echo Arena, Pistol Whip, and In Death: Unchained.
An avid gamer since his parents gave in and bought a secondhand PS2, Corey has spent years honing his skills and refining his tastes. His passion for the more active and immersive nature of VR stemming from as far back as the 2004 animation 'Code Lyoko'. His previous flat fixations include Battlefield 3, The Division, For Honor, and animes such as SAO and Log Horizon. While his favourite genres are currently FPS and MMORPGs, he's excited by the endless possibilities the future of VR holds.
Andrew fell in love with games when he would risk being mugged for his pocket money to bunk off school and play Double Dragon, R-Type, and OutRun at arcades located in some of the less salubrious parts of his home town. The Quest 2 sits proudly next to a Virtual Boy in his collection of nearly 50 consoles and handhelds - and the strength of his love for the old arcade experience is reflected in his belief that Rez Infinite and Robo Recall are the pinnacle of what VR has to offer.
