With only seven hours on the clock, Linus and the team transform a badminton club into a 250-seat LAN event, complete with a stage, LED wall, custom PCs, VR arena, vending machines, and retro gaming area. Power issues, time pressure, and chaos… this is how Whale LAN 2025 came together.

all of those "fire Colton" jokes over the years, yet he's the one who is still at LMG lol..
I knew y'all use the feature that allowed you to send out a video under multiple thumbnails. Now I'm seeing them under multiple titles… I just want to say I don't like it
Ok this sponsor was a useful one lol
the mega knight was so fucking funny
Colton speak : subtitle "FIRED" 😂😂
How did the game cashe work, was eveeyone able to just run games off of that with there own personal systems? Wish I could go, but Vancouver is darn far from here, and I would bring my PC over there only for something to not work lol, I also runs Linux which could complicate something lol, not to mention Linux does not like newer Multiplayer games with Kernal/Secureboot AC.
would be nice to mention how they deal with hot air from all the ppl and equipment
where are jake and others they are not invited to lan?
i wanted to see linus get body slammed by elijah 😭🤣🤣
2:40 editor… emporia is literally written on the box at that scene, how did the subtitle go wrong? 😀
i realy want that type of couch for when i get a new place
Diablo Immortal spotted 😀
Do they get to keep the PC?
I love the chaotic humor Adam brings 😂
Kudos to the co-op only games for VR. Working together instead of trying to bring each other down.
Miss you Jake.
E. Emporia. not Amporia.
Hello, so I oc my mx250 core clock +300 and memory +1000 in msi afterburner, is this good bc I can't get a straight answer from Google and I dont believe (4004mhz)is the effective speed for gddr5
ok, I need more Lan party content…At least 4-5 more videos.
I… have never actually properly unboxed anything in my life because I just watched Linus unpackaged this PC 10x faster and easier than I have unboxed things with similar packaging in the past. The more you know 😅 07:58
It makes me remebember my Anime Con Organizing days, moving 40 to 50 tables for the merch stands , and having 2k people attending the convention <3 also the gaming rooms with 20 ps4's back when they were the new thing !
