The whole package that comes with Ancient Amuletor fills several holes but leaves a lot of gaps. It’s fun and action-filled, but that flame fades away within a few hours. There appears to be more content on the way, with characters and maps locked behind the immortal words “coming soon”....
AereA
AereA was enjoyable, just not for the reasons you’d imagine a game would be. The story is great, the concept is lovely, but the execution doesn’t hit the right note. It’s colourful, full of bombastic music and character, but lacks depth and fluid gameplay mechanics. Too many little issues snowball...
NBA Playgrounds isn’t a bad game, but it isn’t great. The fun it offers is found almost exclusively in either co-op or online. The solo experience is lacking and doesn’t keep your attention for too long. The game has a great look, and plays decently well when the AI isn’t...
Statik
Statik does what any good puzzle game should: it challenges you. No puzzle felt unfair or insurmountable. The game itself, and the way in which it is played, is arguably the best use of the PSVR yet. It’s a sense of immersion you fail to see elsewhere in the PSVR...
However you cut it, Expeditions: Viking is a great strategy RPG. There is more than enough to keep you busy, plenty of skills to customise your playstyle, and loads of quests and adventure. The combat system is near perfect, crafted in a way that gives the players control over every...
Toukiden 2 is a great example of “it it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”. The core of the game comes from Toukiden: Kiwami and receives a good dose of polish, and Koei Tecmo added just enough new material. It’s another solid entry in the series and probably your best bet for...
Whether you play on PC or console, VR or not, just play. Resident Evil 7: Biohazard is a remarkable accomplishment and a truly triumphant return of a storied franchise. Masterfully executed on all fronts, this game will leave a lasting impression on you long after you’re done. Just please, do it justice....
Weeping Doll is a brief preview of what horror is capable of, if given time. However, it does not stand on its own as anything noteworthy. While motion sickness won’t be a concern, keeping your interest will be. The confusing set pieces, empty story, and rough dialogue will distract you...
There are little quirks and mechanics in the game that reward the curious player. However, Motorsport Manager does a fantastic job of making the strenuous, tedious job it simulates into something much more enjoyable. It’ll soak up the best part of your afternoon, which might turn off some players. It...
In the end, you might struggle to play Thumper for hours, especially in VR. While the PSVR version of the game is fantastic in terms of immersion, sound and colour, it isn’t necessarily a betterment. Simply playing with headphones can capture much of the same feeling. That said however, while...
After you take your headset off, you don’t really feel like you want to tell everyone about it. Despite how the world engulfs you, the action falls short of matching that feeling. Although Battlezone is one of PSVR’s bulkiest titles, it fails to drum up replayability in the long run....
Graphics are some of the best, considering all the motion, effects, and other competitors, available on PSVR. The announcers, the ambience, and the crowd create a stunning sports environment that turns all the excitement and intensity up to eleven. While RIGS is a bit sparse on content, those with a...
