GOOD VR games?

I thought it was alright on touch controllers tbh, was just a bit dissapointed with the resolution. I'd like it if it had streetview for locations outside the main ones to look at.

Also I thought the texture pop-in on the tours ruined them.
 
I think I was expecting too much from Google Earth. After all the amazing reviews and people saying it was now the goto VR app, I was really looking forward to it and when it came to the Oculus Store I installed it immediately. Disappointing is the word I would use for Google Earth.
 
There is a Batman VR demo/game on Steam which is effectively just a VR showcase with very little gameplay according to the reviews. £15 for approx 45min to 1hr of Batman visual goodies. Anybody tried it, recommended?

Played it last night, it's visually stunning - probably the best VR graphics I've seen to date.

Little details really make this game stand out - sure you can race through it, but take it all in.

e: I played about 1.5 hours last night and had completed the story. I'll be going back for more though.

The one thing that did upset was the scene transitioning - I think they've done it to control motion sickness perhaps but it was annoying to be told to pick a mode of transport only to be presented with a black screen and some engine sounds instead of sitting in the Batmobile.

It is rather pretty. Makes good use of superior Nvidia VR technologies.

You need a fairly beefy fibre connection to stream the terrain and textures quickly enough. Even on my 70Mb/s connection it can take a couple of seconds to render an environment at full detail, but it's not all that bad. I think they've now added options to tweak the cache to improve things.

I've got 80mb so bit disappointing that even that wasn't good enough. I did notice that it would take about 50% of each tour destination before it finished loading though, so only got 10 secs to look in detail at stuff :(
 
You guys might not be in on this yet, but the Wave VR really is the one to hit up when they go region free again.

I was at the bash at 4.30 this morning. It is the no1 VR experience.
