At this point it's basically cone down between GT7 and Batman for me, two franchises I absolutely love and want to experience in VR...but from the sounds of it Batman is the more defining VR experience, no to mention the insane back catalog of Quest 2 games.

Well, if you have a PC, there's Asseto Corsa so I agree that GT7 is not really genre defining. There is currently really nothing like Batman. The translation of movement to gameplay feels just so perfect. Yeah, there are plenty of VR games with melee combat but none of them are as visceral. This is especially true if you've played the non-VR Arkham games. You're doing the exact same moves as you remember Batman doing but you're doing it in first person and you're doing it with physical gestures that are mimiced in the game. At first, I thought it was weird that they didn't go with freeform combat and instead went with on screen prompts but now I realize it's making me fight like how Batman would fight. The closest you'll get to being that immersed in a character in another game is AC Nexus when you do that limp wristed stab with the hidden blade. AC Nexus ain't bad but it ain't Batman.

Got to try this and was a bit disappointed, combat seems rigid & gesture like and the scale of everything feels off, like it's all a bit too fat & stubby, from people to objects (maybe it's the cartoony styling) and rooms tend to be smaller than you'd expect. Polished & fun but not the 2nd VR coming...
