Red Matter 2 - PSVR2

I've been looking forward to this game for a while because I loved the original (I know you played this too @Con), and so far this is just as good, if not better. Red Matter 2 is a puzzle game where you have to solve the mystery of what happened to the crew of an abandoned space station, which is linked to the strange red matter of the title. This game has amazing atmosphere which is really creepy and oppressive, and the brutal Soviet style architecture adds to that feeling. The graphics are great, the music is amazing and if you pick up a headset you should definitely get this game. You don't need to have played the first one to get what's going on here, if anything …

Walkabout Mini Golf - PSVR2

Walkabout Mini Golf is a VR golf game and is one of my favourites so far. It has a bunch of imaginative courses from the pirate themed one in the videos below to a course based on the book 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea set on Captain Nemo's submarine The Nautilus while it's under attack from a Kraken. There are also some fun side activities like a hidden ball to collect on every hole, and the hard version of every course has a treasure hunt which rewards you with a new putter for each one you complete. This is a blast to play alone but is so much more fun with friends, I spent a few hours playing with a couple of people the other night and it's one of the best VR experi…

Before Your Eyes on PSVR2 made me cry like a baby

Before Your Eyes is an interactive story which you control using only your eyes. The premise is that you are dead at the beginning of the game, and a ferryman is taking you to the afterlife, but to gain access he needs to tell your story, and so your life begins to flash before your eyes. The unique thing is that at certain points, if you blink you skip forward in time, maybe missing key things or the ends of conversations you wanted to hear. I won't write anything more about the story because I thought it was amazing, and if you get a PSVR2 you need to get this as it's the most emotional gaming experience I think I've ever had. If you don't care about spo…

Another PSVR2 rhythm game, this has you waving your hands about in order to hit colour coordinated orbs - blue for left hand, red for right hand etc. Like Pistol Whip it is a simple idea executed perfectly. Here's a video of me dancing along to Clint Eastwood by Gorillaz and trying to sing along even though I had been playing for about an hour at this point and was very out of breath.

The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners is a survival horror game from the makers of the brilliant Walking Dead story games. In it you have to survive a zombie ridden New Orleans, scavenging for supplies and helping out other survivors. This was originally released for PSVR1 and was one of he best games released for it, and now it has been upgraded for the new hardware. I've never played this before but I'm already loving it. It has great atmosphere and I love how all the menus and inventories are so tactile and in-world, something that I always enjoy in VR games.

Drums Rock - PSVR2

- 0 replies
- 456 views
Drums Rock is a music rhythm game in much the same style as Guitar Hero. Demons of different colours advance towards you and you have to hit the corresponding drum. Simple, but very addictive. There are only a few recognisable songs, with the rest of the soundtrack made up of original songs meant to sound like specific bands, but most of them are pretty good, with a couple of straight out bangers amongst them. On harder difficulties it gets pretty intense, but it's very well designed and you're always able to see what you're supposed to be doing, even if you're not quick enough to do it. There's also a bunch of unlockables in the form of different hands, drums …

Pistol Whip is a rhythm shooter game and it might now be my new favourite game on PSVR2. It's a simple premise executed perfectly as you move through various neon virtual levels shooting people to the beat of the awesome soundtrack. Here's a video of a level so you can get the idea, but you don't get the feeling of being a total badass.

Demeo - PSVR2

Demeo is an old school tabletop style RPG for up to four players where you have to take a party of adventurers - chosen from eight classes - through dungeons of increasing difficulty. Each of the five dungeons is made up of three floors which each take about an hour or so to complete. The combat is turn based and as well as regular attacks you have a hand of cards that you can use for more powerful attacks or support abilities. I was surprised at how much I loved this. While you're playing you can move around and zoom in and out, so you can look down at the board like in real life or get right in there so that the pieces are all life sized. I also love how tact…

Horizon: Call of the Mountain - PSVR2

This is Sony's flagship game for the release of PSVR2 and I think it's pretty damn awesome. I've not played the other games in the series so I have no idea who anyone is except Aloy - who you don't play as - but that hasn't stopped me from being in absolute awe of this incredible world. The gameplay is mostly made up of exploration and traversal, mostly climbing, with some combat sections where you fight different types of robot dinosaurs. The combat is a lot of fun, using the bow feels so natural, and the climbing really nails the sense of danger and the feeling that you're clambering about hundreds of feet up. Here's a short video of me climbing about on a…

PSVR - All games.

Think a dedicated PSVR thread will be useful for those of us who use it. I might be the only one using it right now on here but I’ll be doing my very best to convince you all to join in. The main game I’m playing at the moment is Beat Saber. It’s the most physical gaming experience I’ve ever had. No other game has made me sweat the way this game has done. Other essential games to play are Skyrim and RE7. If you can handle those then you’ll experience gaming in a whole new way.

This has been out on PCVR for a while and I have been counting down the days to it's release for PSVR. It's a rhythm game played with the move controllers and all you have to do is slice through boxes in the right direction. Expert difficulty will make you sweat. I can't recommend this game highly enough. I honestly want to play this more than Red Dead Online. 11/10

Blood and Truth is a spiritual successor to The London Heist, from the VR Worlds game, and is the most fun I've had in a vr game for ages. You play as an ex-special forces soldier who is back in London for the funeral of his father, but then gets dragged into a violent underworld battle against a proper cockney cunt of a villain. If you have PSVR, you have to get this game.

Firewall: Zero Hour - A Must Have!

Picked this up today in a bundle with the Aim controller, and it is frigging fantastic! It's basically Rainbow 6 Siege in vr. Two squads of four go against each other to either defend or attack an objective. You only get one life and a short time limit to do it so every round is tense with short, violent bursts of action. Using the Aim controller feels great and adds to the immersion of the whole experience. It looks great too, especially playing on the pro, and even though I only played a few rounds so far all the levels were varied and had their own character. There's also a deep customisable system, which I know nothing about yet Even though it's been out for tw…

If you're looking for a spooky PSVR game for halloween then you can't go much wrong with The Exorcist: Legion. It's a five chapter game, each being about half an hour long, where you play a detective investigating spooky goings on involving priests and demons. There are a couple of jump scares, but it mostly relies on tension, building up the atmosphere perfectly before coming to a terrifying conclusion. Here's me shitting myself through the first chapter.

PSVR Games: Reviews and Recommendations

PSVR has been out for over a year now and has accrued a quite wide and varied selection of games. Since the holidays are coming up and some of you may be thinking about getting one I thought I'd make a post giving some quick thoughts on all of the games I own, whether they're worth it, and how they work (control method etc). I've played some of these games more than others, so I will have more to say about some games, and maybe only a line or two about others. If anyone has any questions I'll do my best to answer them. Batman: Arkham VR My first VR experience, and it made a hell of an impression. This is a two hour game that focuses on the "detective" p…

KONA - A Detective Game

This has a discount right now and looked interesting so I picked it up. It's a first-person detective game set in Canada in 1970. I've only played the first half an hour but am really digging it so far. The graphics aren't the best, but the setting is cool, as is the music, and I really like the Raymond Chandler-like narration that goes on throughout.

Werewolves Within

You've probably heard me mention this before, and how much fun it is, and it is. I've just spent the last three hours playing this and it felt like half an hour. It's a multiplayer only game where you all sit around a campfire and try to figure out who the secret werewolf is. It takes a while to figure out all the different roles and what they can do so I won't bother here, but once you know the basics you can play. All you need to know for this video is that I was a werewolf, along with another guy, and we had to convince everyone else to vote for someone who wasn't us.

What is it: A zombie survival first-person shooter that takes place in a fictional Arizona desert. First Impressions: Graphics look cartoony yet realistic which surprisingly makes it feel real. Tough time grabbing things from ground and blue grid appears but i think that is because of my setup during the first few videos.

@LimeGreenLegend hahahaha you didn't tell me about this game. The shit looks hilarious. Drunkn Bar Fight is coming to PlayStation VR. The rather wacky bar fight simulator previously released on Steam in 2016, and now a trophy listing has gone live for the game. In it, players will get to use their full surroundings to engage in some virtual fisticuffs. There’s also a trophy for hitting your opponents in the nuts, which I’m always a fan of. Here’s more on the game from developer The Munky: Drunkn Bar Fight is a simple, immersive, silly, rowdy party game. Take turns throwing bottles, darts, chairs, tip jars or anything else you can…

Rate the Last Film you Watched 2: Electric Boogaloo
What I Watched This Week #154 (Dec 9-15) The Hound of the Baskervilles dir. Terence Fisher/1959/1h27m The winning Hammer trio of director Terence Fisher and actors Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, who had previous success with Dracula and The Mummy, team up once again for this adaptation of the most famous, and spookiest, Sherlock Holmes story, The Hound of the Baskervilles. Cushing plays Holmes with Lee as Sir Henry Baskerville, under threat from a family curse. Cushing makes for a wonderful Holmes, fitting into the role perfectly, and he has a capable Watson played by Andre Morell, but I did find Lee's role lacking in screen time, though he makes the most of what he gets. I think I would have much preferred to see him play Moriarty in a different story as The Hound of the Baskervilles isn't one of my favourites. What this film does well is atmosphere, particularly in the more supernatural scenes, with some wonderfully otherworldly lighting that feels like a precursor to the Italian giallo horror films of the 70s. 7/10 Memoir of a Snail dir. Adam Elliot/2024/1h34m This Australian stop-motion animation sees Grace (Sarah Snook) tell her sad life story, which starts with her mother dying whilst giving birth to her and her twin brother Gilbert (Kodi Smit-McPhee). When their father dies while they are still young they are sent to separate foster homes. From there Grace grows into a lonely, depressed woman whose only friend is an eccentric old lady called Pinky (Jacki Weaver). Like Elliot's previous feature from 2009, Mary and Max – the story of a pen pal friendship between a lonely, bullied, little Australian girl and a lonely, autistic middle-aged New York man - this is a brutally open and emotionally raw film that still finds beauty in the ugliness of life. This extends to the character design, as these characters all border on the grotesque looking but are still endearing and beautiful in their own way. Going further, this applies to Elliot's own life. After watching his much more autobiographical shorts (see next review) I can see how much of this film is based on experience, and the fact that he's been able to make such a profoundly moving film out of his pain (this also applies to Mary and Max) is deeply touching. As far as feature films go he's two for two in my books and I can't wait to see his next film, even if it takes another 15 years. 10/10 Lime's Film of the Week! Four shorts by Adam Elliot: Human Behavioural Case Studies. Series One. 1996/1m Uncle 1996/6m Cousin 1999/4m Brother 2000/8m These four shorts make up Elliot's filmography prior to the release of his first feature, Mary and Max, and offer up bite-sized samples of his signature style and deeply personal storytelling. That is, with one outlier – his very first film, Human Behavioural Case Studies. Series One. This is a simply animated film, drawn with pencil rather than his usual Claymation stop-motion, where we hear three stories about weird hobbies that some children have. While probably based on reality this lacks the emotional heft that really makes his films hit hard. But this is more than present in his other three shorts that make up a trilogy, Uncle, Cousin, and Brother. These are all autobiographical and relate Elliot's feelings and relationships with each of the named family members, his eccentric, hardware store owning uncle, his cousin with cerebral palsy, and his wild and free older brother. These films are all tinged with sadness and melancholy but there is always humour present, something to make life bearable. If you don't laugh you'll cry. Like I said in the previous review, it's incredible that Elliot has taken so much pain and sadness and transformed that into these works of art. Not as refined as his feature films, these are still very much worth watching and I'll give the whole collection a score of 8.5/10 Mandibles dir. Quentin Dupieux/2020/1h17m Quentin Dupieux is a very unique director who has previously made films about a killer tyre (Rubber), a possessed jacket that wants to be the only jacket in the world (Deerskin), and a man who takes a play, and its audience, hostage because he thinks it's bad (Yannick), so I wasn't that surprised to find that this film is about a couple of idiotic chancers, Manu and Jean-Gab (Gregoire Ludig, David Marsais), who find a giant fly in the boot of their car and see it as a way to make some money. Deadpan Kafkaesque absurdity is the name of the game here, with the two main characters just going with the flow, seeing where their moronic scheme will take them. It's like if Dumb and Dumber was a surreal, European arthouse film. The two leads do a good job of making what could be very unlikeable characters – they're not only stupid, they're also selfish, manipulative, and deceitful – quite charming, and their almost childlike friendship I found to be quite sweet, they even have a special best friends fist bump. I also found it hilarious that at the end, just when we think that they are going to learn a lesson and grow as people, their idiocy is rewarded and reinforced. The more films of his I watch, the more I like the weird world of Quentin Dupieux. 9/10 Women Talking dir. Sarah Polley/2022/1h35m A group of women in an isolated, deeply religious community meet to discuss what they are to do after several of their men are arrested for sexually assaulting them. They decide they have three options, stay and fight for equality in the community, stay and do nothing, or leave. This is a true ensemble piece with many characters, but led by the brilliant trio of Rooney Mara, Jessie Buckley, and Claire Foy each delivering amazing performances. Ben Whishaw is also excellent as August, a kind and gentle man who has recently been let back into the community after previously being excommunicated due to his mother. He is at the meeting to take minutes because of course none of the women were ever taught to read or write. This is a film that is made by the dialogue, with the Oscar winning screenplay really making each discussion totally enthralling as the women struggle to reconcile their faith with the massively traumatic experience they've all been through. 9/10 Seven Chances dir. Buster Keaton/1925/56m This silent comedy stars Buster Keaton as Jimmie Shannon who discovers he's been left seven million dollars in a distant relative's will. The only catch is that he has to be married by seven pm on the evening of his twenty seventh birthday, which happens to be today. This film builds up the comedy over the runtime, starting off with quite subtle slapstick and culminating with a ridiculously over the top chase where he is pursued through the city streets by hundreds of would-be brides. Buster gives a very typical performance of his here, his stony expression exuding a slight air of sadness. While this is very well crafted I do find it to be less imaginative than his best films like Sherlock Jr. or The General. The chase scene is fun but there are no real big set pieces that stand out. But this is still a funny and charming film and well worth watching. 7/10 Toy Story 2 dir. John Lasseter/1999/1h32m Pixar's third film started out as a direct to video project, but when they exceeded all expectations when it came to quality and story it was pushed to full release. Woody (Tom Hanks) is kidnapped by toy store owner Al (Wayne Knight) who's going to sell him to a museum in Tokyo because it turns out he's a rare collectable piece of merchandise from an old TV show. This is how we meet the rest of the Woody's Roundup gang, exuberant cowgirl Jessie (Joan Cusack) and Stinky Pete the Prospector (Kelsey Grammer). This is one of those rare sequels that is almost, if not as good as the original. Woody having to face the prospect of a life where Andy grows up and doesn't need him anymore is really well handled, with the song where Jessie recounts her own owner abandoning her being genuinely heart-breaking. This is also just as funny as the original, with most of that coming from Buzz (Tim Allen), leading a rescue party out looking for Woody. There's also a marked improvement in the animation from the first film here, especially with the human characters who are no longer nightmare inducing. The textures of the fabrics and plastics that make up the toys also look much more detailed. 9.5/10 Wasp dir. Andrea Arnold/2003/26m (no trailer for this) This Oscar winning short film from Andrea Arnold stars Natalie Press as Zoe, a single mother to four young children living in poverty on a council estate. She is asked out to the pub by an old flame Dave (Danny Dyer) but can't get a babysitter, so she makes her kids wait outside for her. This is an honest and non-judgemental look at what it's like for the poorest people in this country. Zoe, as a character is someone who you sympathise with, pity, are outraged by and can feel disgusted by how she treats her children. Her love for them is never called into question, it's a case of a desperate person not making the best decisions. Press gives an amazing performance that feels real and lived in. I'm also amazed that Dyer gave a good performance as I've hated him in everything else I've seen him in. Bleak and raw, there's still a spirit of hope here, small as it may be. 10/10- 2

Let The Sunshine In (2017) dir Claire Denis Juliette Binoche plays Parisian artist Isabelle, looking for her ideal man after a divorce. That makes it sound like a romantic comedy, but it isn't. There's no real romance and although not to be taken too seriously it's not exactly full of jokes either. Isabelle basically tries out various lovers who all fail to live up to expectation on some level; such as the wealthy married man who only calls when it suits him or the younger man who decides he just wants to be friends. Interwoven between these scenes we learn a bit more about who Isabelle is, what she does for a job, meet a few of her friends etc. Binoche is very good, as always, most of the rest of the cast are OK. I did start to get a little bored after about halfway through. There was very little chemistry between the actors, which I guess was deliberate since she was never finding the right man. But right at the end it did step up. The very final scene is great. Isabelle goes to see a psychic, played by Gerard Depadieu. There follows a dialogue as they discuss her various lovers, with him kind of reviewing them. It's almost like she was seeing a therapist, until he brought out a “magic” pendulum type of thing and started making predictions of which ones might turn out to be the right man for her. The film actually ends at this scene plays out with the credits beginning whilst their conversation continues. I'm not sure if the intention of this was to make you watch the credits or maybe it was saying “you can stop watching now, there's nothing important left to see”. But whatever, it was an original bit of film making for me. 6 / 10- 2
