Man, when RE4 first came out it really revolutionized things. I know you may think hyperbole, but back then you never played a third-person shooter with first-person kind of aiming controls. It was really something and I played the hell out of this game on GameCube and PS2.

Now, I'm about to say something that's going to rile up some anger and I'm just adding a comment here and not trying to step on any toes. I played this on PS4 a couple weeks ago just to be able to really get a feel for changes and improvements and in my opinion, the game frustrated me to no end.

I'd say the first third of the game is exceptional, like all the village stuff. Once I got to the castle it felt long, kind of irritating to get through, and near the end of it I was just getting worn out from it. The controls aren't great anymore and I realize that's a testament to the evolution of controls and design improvements over the generations. I'm a completionist so I had to get all the bottle cap figurines and I'll tell you what it wasn't fun.

Then you get to the island and it's just waves and waves and waves of enemies in really uninspired areas. Regenerators are cool, but man the bit after the Krauser fight is just an endurance run and I was playing on Professional and died a few times before getting to the part with the 3 turrets... and then the wrecking ball segment, the part where Ashley is driving the plow truck... at that point I was wanting the game to be finished.

With all that said, I do want to check this out for sure, but I really hope things are just maybe better paced, a little more varied, I dunno I'm just hoping it'll make me like 4 again.

If you're wanting more PSVR 2 support, you should probably buy all of these games.

Speak with your wallet!

Bit rich to have to buy games you don't want because you want Sony to support the expensive headset they sold us which cost as much as the console it runs on beyond paying third partys to support it.
Seriously in terms of first party we have horizon on day 1 and a gt 7 vr mode.

They seemingly have made little effort to support it beyond paying Capcom to make re games in VR or a second party studio to make firewall which was mismanaged.

I'm a day 1 psvr2 user and the only thing I'm excited for right now is PC support.

I commented recently this bespoke VR game development model we have right now clearly doesn't work

crazyCoconuts62d ago

On the one hand I feel like there's been plenty of smaller non-AAA games to play and occupy me as a supplement to my flat screen gaming.
But I agree that Sony has done nothing to elevate this beyond the niche it's in and into the mainstream where it would be economical to create AAA games for it.

Babadook762d ago (Edited 62d ago )

Most of these games are worth owning for most people; I own all but 2 of them in fact. So I agree with kevco33. I think you're crazy if you downplay this list quite frankly. Sony can't keep funding software if people don't buy any of it, the ball is squarely in OUR court.

Sony has spent a lot on 3rd party stuff this gen like RE.

phoenixwing62d ago (Edited 62d ago )

Saving up for the headset is my first hurdle. Let alone buying games I don't want lol

mudakoshaka62d ago

People downvoting you for not having enough finances...what a world we live in, haha

phoenixwing62d ago (Edited 62d ago )

@mudako
They feel affronted at the very thought that I don't plunk down 500 immediately lol I have a little over 900 games in my backlog I've been buying games instead of hardware ever since I got my PC and ps5. I just don't know if vr is really for me honestly. Every time I have a couple hundred allocated to video games it makes more sense to buy a bunch of flat games instead of vr ones

mudakoshaka62d ago

I have 9 out of these 10 games. I try to buy all the VR games I like to support the advancement of VR!

TheEroica61d ago (Edited 61d ago )

I spoke with my wallet after watching the first headset get weak support. Easy pass until Sony earns my money. Feel bad for those who parted with 500 bucks, falling for the hype that Sony was actually gonna support this thing.

I own 7 of these titles off the list, lol.

NotoriousWhiz62d ago

I'm trying to decide if it's worth holding onto my psvr 2. I enjoy what it has currently, but it seems unlikely to get anything else. Might be better off just waiting for something with more support if that ever comes.

Profchaos62d ago

As a fellow psvr2 owner the question seemingly comes down to do you own a PC.

I think I'm all in I have a habit to hold onto my systems anyhow I still have my psvr1 to hell I still have my NES.

But while it's still worth something yeah you could sell it and if Sony turns the ship around you should be able to buy another one for less than you soldmit for I feel like we won't see any fix for the headset for the next 2 years rumours show that Sony has no current first party VR games in active development after they closed London studios

The whole psvr2 situation has left me feeling a little burnt on PlayStation as a whole to be honest. The first psvr felt experimental but it was supported far more than this superior headset

MIDGETonSTILTS1762d ago

GT7 surprised me, because I hate racing games, but i poured 100 hours into it way too quickly.

I’m looking forward to the Metro VR game this year, and I hope that WW2 dogfighter game releases eventually.

talocaca62d ago

I have most of them 😅

Waiting for a sale on Synapse and Arizona Sunshine 2.....also Metro coming this year looks great.
