Early Access Review
The most entertaining VR PvE tactical shooter available. Don't be fooled by low-poly graphics, this game is absolutely great. The only downside is the same downside of any online shooter: the annoying screaming kids. But if you can get together with friends to play in a private server, or happen to link online with a good team, it's a blast of a game.
And it's still on early access, so it'll definitely get better!

Absolutely fun and immersive turn-based strategy.
There's more depth to the game that you can initially see. Just finished the campaign for the first time, and there's a lot of replayability on this one. Will try again soon enough.
Can be a bit unforgiving during the first few hours. There are a lot of online guides which can help you during that times.

Early Access Review
It's a modern VR take on old shooters mixed with Metal Gear Solid aesthetics. Pixelated graphics for more nostalgia.

Unfortunately, when compared to other VR shooters (Contractors, Pavlov or Zero Caliber), the guns feel clumsy, enemy behavior is quite lacking, and the game is very, very short (at least for now, more episodes are supposed to release in some time). About 2 hours total gameplay.

There are better ways to spend your money and time.

Early Access Review
A new, independent, early-access U-Boot simulator that does everything right.

I've always loved submarines, but couldn't just get the hang of both old and new simulations like the Silent Hunter series. UBOAT has an easygoing learning curve, as it allows to set different difficulty and realism levels to accomodate everyone. If you don't know how to calculate a torpedo solution, then don't worry, your officers can do that for you. But if you do know, then you can do it all manually.

If I had to speak about the only thing missing, that's some kind of a multiplayer mode. It'd be fun to stalk convoys with friends, or command a submarine.

Still, it's a great game, fun, can be easy and forgiving or completely relentless. Also it's quite cheap!

I just don't know why I keep buying Ubisoft looters... I mean, shooters.
Maybe because they're on sale.
Maybe because I see how cool they look.
Maybe because I forget about the dead-eyed characters and soulless world-building.

They do give you a whole big swath of land to play on. Which is mostly the same. Story wise, the game makes no sense. Recently I played Far Cry 6. Besides the first and third person, I really see no difference between both games. Or any other Ubisoft game from the last 10 years.

Time to innovate.

Early Access Review
I wanted to wait for a few months before publishing a negative review about this product. Unfortunately since its launch on february, little has changed. A lot was promised before this game came out, and yet almost none of it is true. Only better graphics and more parts than the original KSP, but still no heat damage, no science mode, no off-world base building, and the game is certainly unplayable. Camera for the VAB/SPH is trash.
I know a lot of people are saying "it's early access". But it's not early access like KSP was, with no budget and a single developer trying things out. Now Private Division is a big company, they charged a lot for this game and they haven't delivered any of the things that were promised, except updated graphics.
Even if you're a fan of the original KSP, do not buy this. Not until they actually get things better (which I'm guessing they won't for quite a long time).

Although it''s been completely superseded by its great sequel, MudRunner was a great mid-term solution between the great idea that was Spintires and the completely evolved SnowRunner.
It's still a very fun game to play, and it can be even less forgiving than SnowRunner, since you can't recall big trucks back to a garage. If you tip over, either mount a rescue mission or forget about that truck. Asphalt physics are a bit off, but mud... oh, that's where this simulator shines.

My go-to VR driving experience for friends. Great graphics, accessible gameplay (even though it's definitely not a simulation, it certainly feels like one for most people) and diverse tracks/cars make for a very interesting experience in VR.

While I usually do love Sniper Elite games, and this definitely feels like one, the interface for this game feels quite outdated, stemming from the first days of CV1. Modern shooters (like Pavlov, Zero Caliber, Onward, etc) have mastered VR gunplay in a way that feels almost natural. Sniper Elite: VR unfortunately does not. Weapon handling is toyish, ammo count is unimmersive, and the whole experience is just bland. And of course, while most of the aformentioned games still receive regular (at least once a year) updates, Sniper Elite has definitely been abandoned in that regard.

Discovered this game due to a fracture in my right hand which forbade me to play any real-time games. I was missing on a GREAT game. The balance between classes, having to mind both the tactical (missions) and strategic (world map) side of the conflict is greatly thought. You really get the feeling of being always on the edge, even after a few playthroughs.
If you haven't yet tried it, do so. It's pure gold.
