i realize i'll get booed for this, but i pray ReturnalVR is third person. ideally both, but if i was forced to choose...

I wish there was an option to play RE4 in 3rd person. Same with Helldivers. Hell, most games.

The simple change in perspective is cool enough for me and it's the main reason Astrobot is so damn memorable because gameplay wise, Rescue Mission is nothing special at all.

I just finished my first run of Big Shots. The game is not bad and is really easy to pick up and have fun instantly. Gameplay is quite cool with different weapons and upgrades to get during the runs, and it is really fun to be able to play a big mech.

That said, the game feels really barebone and too simplistic: its just a wave shooter with a roguelite progression and the maps are static and very small. There are also a few small issues like the jetpack that requires you to physically use a lever, meaning dropping one of your weapong while doing so and a few minor polish problems.

All in all, its an okay game, but 25 bucks feel too expensive, especially when you compare to the other rogues on the system. If you are interested I advise you to wait for a 50% discount and not to expect more than 5 to 10 hours of gameplay.

5/10

On another topic, did one of you play Ruins Magus or Galaxy Kart?

They are both on sales and picked my interest but I read mixed things about these online.

Ruins Magus is a good game. The HUB world is limited but it is really charming and the dungeons you navigate are cool. It's not a JRPG, it's an action game with a JRPG look.

I thought most reviews for PSVR2 were too harsh. Definitely worth getting IMO.

edit- Galaxy Kart is kind of shit to me but kudos to the developers for constantly updating it for free. Worth a purchase for supporting them IMO but it was just boring to me, no sense of speed, etc. Played a few courses and dropped it, just didn't engage me at all.

Thanks for your feedback, I think I will get Ruins Magus and wait for Galaxy Kart.

My backlog is getting ridiculous.

I have Galaxy Kart but barely play it for a few reasons: 1. my lack of free time to play a game; 2. prioritazing other games whenever I have the opportunity to play; and 3. the game is good, they added a lot of content and improved performance, but it is still a kart racing game, a genre I don't usually play much.

Thanks for your reply man. I bought Ruins Magus and will pass on Galaxy Kart for now.

I am lucky as I have a shit ton of play time nowadays as I am between two contracts, so I try to enjoy it while it lasts.

I just finished Ruins Magus and also got the platinum.

Damn that was GREAT! I am so surprised by the quality of this game! The visuals are beautiful, the music is amazing, the characters are goofy like in a 16 bits JRPG, the story is simple but efficient and the gameplay is fast paced and very addictive. The game also has some very interesting ideas in terms of direction, and punched way above its weight numerous times.

It really is a mini japanese Dungeon RPG, reminding me of games like Etrian Odyssey, and I fell in love with it almost instantly.

It is not perfect by any mean or an absolute must have for the system, but if you like this kind of japanese games, go for it! And in terms of content it is also pretty good: it took me between 9 to 10 hours to get the platinum.

Damn, what a great little game!

I grabbed the Red Matter 1 and 2 pack, and Jurassic World Aftermath on sale.
I played about two hours of Red Matter 1 and, holy shit, I wasn't prepared for how good the game looks. It's insane. Plus the puzzles are very intuitive and fun to solve. I can't wait to see how Red Matter 2 improves on this.

Yeah the Red Matter games are fantastic.

Never played RM1, only the second title (bought it when it launched and the second title came before the first). Absolutely fantastic title in every way, specially the sharpness of the image. Shows how outstanding the image quality can be on PSVR2.

My brother likes Into the Radius a lot, but I never tried. I think that would be a nice announcement, same as Blade & Sorcery. But to be honest, I would love to be something brand new

The game will come packed with content and improvements, and it is really nice to read that the devs want to use the PSVR2 as its full potential!

Only issue is that we have a year to wait.

so what are the options for third person games on psvr2? is it even a handful? it's really annoying me at this point, and i've been very patient. damn if only Dreams had gotten a VR2 update... that game was amazing even with crappy vr.

The Moss games are. The Stellaris spin-off game is. Tentacular kind of is.

Some content creators had the chance to play Behemoth today apparently. On PSVR2. They did not say anything about the quality but we should hear more about the game soon. With a PS Showcase rumoured to happen this month, I think we can expect a gameplay reveal there.

I really hope Sony shows some love for PSVR2 during this event. Astro 2 hopefully is a PSVR2 or at least hybrid games, and I still have hopes for Ace Combat 8 (these cheeky tweets between Yoshida and the game director about VR made me think the full game should be fully playable in PSVR2), Resident Evil 9, and some surprises.

Guess we will know soon.

Soooo, are we finally going to see the game? Maybe there really is a PS showcase incoming and it might feature PSVR2 titles

I mean, if they dont show any PSVR2 title at a Showcase, one year after the system released, that would be a PR tragedy. They kinda HAVE to.

But nothing surprises me anymore with Sony this gen.

I mean you still can't buy PSVR2 Sense Controllers separately. At least, not that I know of.

 

[MR ARCADE FOREVER]

Hopefully we will get Astro and a few more surprises for the psvr 2 during the next showcase.

Yep :/

 

[SportsFan581]

Aces of Thunder and the Wanderer look really interesting there. Hopefully the effort making these better looking VR experiences will pay dividends for the devs.

I really wish Sony would offer a price drop because I'm all ready to buy a PSVR2 but I just know that after I purchase it there will be an offer on the hardware.

I'm still convinced we will get Ace Combat 8. These cheeky tweets between the game director and Yoshi P from 2 years ago made me a believer.
