Suggest me a game to play …

[Mike_J_Smith]

Ive had an Oculus Quest 2 for a while and although I’ve enjoyed some of the games using it standalone(beatsabre, climb etc), they are a bit gimmicky and short lasting. I’d like to see what it is like playing a proper game connected up to my PC, but not sure what to go for. I guess an FPS or similar would be fun?

What would your recommendations be?

HL Alyx.

Cool, thanks I’ll check it out. Will also need to find that expensive usb-c cable I got!

Then, if they are your bag, racing games.

yes, that would be cool. Any particular ones?

Clear your Monday evenings and join the hangout crew.

Never had more fun gaming than doing it in a group VR. Even basic things like Rec Room can be brilliant.

Currently Township Tale is taking up a huge amount of time for several of us. MMO. Free on PC too. Perhaps not all the pretties you want though.

what’s the hangout crew?! My son was playing rec room the other day, but I’ve got no idea what it is! An MMO would be fun, not done that since I had to ban myself from WoW!

Saints and sinners

there are so many it really depends on your genre of choice.. for £8 lone echo should be in everyones library. Elite dangerous horizons is an epic experience in VR (elite Odyssey less so, for now i would not bother with that).

Games like falloutVR or skyrim VR are worth a look if your bag - look for mods to tart them up - and then the other stuff already listed.

pinball is brilliant in VR and there are some free tables, but pinball FV2 VR is worth the money.

Lone Echo - currently on sale on the Oculus store.

I feel like I’ve been missing out! I got the Oculus because it sounded cool, but I’ve not really used it. Going to get on it now though, cheers guys

Stupid question, but do all the games use the oculus controllers? Or do you use an Xbox controller? Can’t imagine a keyboard would work?

ACC is very good
Automobilista 2
Dirt Rally 2
Project cars 2, skip 1 and 3.

This one

cheers, I’ll check them out

Microsoft flight sim, elite dangerous, Outer wilds, Subnautica,

Downloaded Microsoft Flight Sim from the Xbox store and played it VR last night and now realise I’ve been missing out hugely not using the Oculus properly! It was amazing. I’m going to download HL Alyx this evening
