Pimax have awful support, and the cables are prone to breaking. I know someone with a Pimax and he's on his third cable.

Is this headset any good?
Virtual Reality, Pimax Vision 8K X VR Headset

If you want to spend lots of money on a headset buy the Vive Pro 2, which can be upgraded to wireless.

Pimax headsets are terrible.

Sniper Elite VR has a 25% discount till Friday on the steam store.

There was a bumper patch earlier in the month that fixed the gripes people had with it, plus a bunch of additional graphical options for the PC.

Thanks for the heads-up. I might go for that.

Lone Echo £7.99 on Oculus, so finally picked it up. Awesome, just works so well in VR, the zero gravity movement. Miles better than Alyx imo, which I ended up refunding.

Probably my all-time favourite VR game. It's a bit short but it's an emotional rollercoaster. An essential purchase, and looks amazing on Quest 2.

I'd looked at this before but it only seemed to be available for the Rift? Is there any trick to getting it working on a quest 2?

its a rift only game

to get it working on the quest, you need to link it to your PC to play PC VR titles

either wire a hardwire, or wireless - airlink (in the headset ) or buy Virtual Desktop

Ah thank you. I've used virtual desktop to play steam games but hadn't even thought about Oculus stuff, should have been obvious, sorry.

Will grab it later as I have £8 credit, so perfect.

How long is lone echo in sale for, can't get to my pc tonight to check it

It’s been £8 for weeks/months now I think, ever since the sequel neared release.

Starwars squadrons is now free on prime gaming

Do you get Prime Gaming just from having an Amazon Prime account? As I clicked “activate Prime Gaming” and have now redeemed my code for it, or have I unwittingly signed up to a paid subscription on top of my Prime account?

That seems to be on Origin rather than Steam. If it's not on Steam VR or the Oculus store, how do you get it to work on the Quest 2?

Alien: Isolation is too!

P.S i had no idea prime gaming was even a thing!, i'm on a prime trial and just got both games, Freaking awesome, thanks for the heads up!

I didn't realise Prime gaming was a thing either and completely free for Prime members!! I have both games already but, will keep an eye out from now on.

Grabbed Squadrons even though I have it on Epic, as the Epic version is a pain in the backside as it launches the game via Origin, so basically it uses two different game clients to launch one game!

Prime gaming comes with prime. Get new games to keep for ever every month or so.
