There's a turret-based spinoff of it called Gunjack. It's amusing. Omega Agent is pretty cool too.

Void theatre in the Netflix app is enough to justify a Gear VR purchase.

Eurogamer thinks DriveClub VR is the best VR racing yet. Crazy how much better the PSVR content looks compared to the PC stuff.

You understand that "the best VR racing yet" means that it's better than a tacked on mode in one game, right?

edit: One thing I can tell you from Project CARS is that using a pad with it negatively impacts the immersion. They mention in the article that they have a force feedback wheel. I think that's going to be a requirement to get the most out of VR racing games.

Are the VR users in this thread using it a fair amount, or has there been a drop off in usage?

That's hard to answer for me, because it just depends what game I'm playing. The VR games so far tend to be relatively short, so in terms of proportion of time, it's pretty low. For example, I spent a few minutes with Trials on Tatooine and then played 20 hours of Zero Time Dilemma. The Vive certainly hasn't gathered dust or anything though, and I think that's more what you mean.

My daughter is different. She wants to play VR to play VR. Once I agree, then she decides what game.

My path will probably be PSVR then a Vive if VR is something I enjoy playing on more than a novelty level.

I'm holding out until at least the second generation of PC headsets.

I'm looking forward to seeing the Rift/Vive division once the Move controllers are out. Oculus screwed up by waiting on them, but once available the company can finally get past the Prelude stage and get down to business with a complete VR environment.

Still haven't gotten to use a Vive. If the headsets existed in a vacuum with no changes on the way I can't imagine why you wouldn't go Vive over Rift.

Other than being able to temporarily lie to yourself about the full cost, I can't imagine why you wouldn't anyway. I guess if you're anti-privacy and anti-consumer too you'd feel a kinship.
