Here's Apex Construct, it looks like a really great port and pretty much like what I experienced on PC.Oculus Quest Robo Recall in game footage.
Pretty impressive for a stand alone VR headset.
Still waiting for my delivery
so Oculus go connects to pc why not this one ? because then ppl wouldnt buy Rift ?
wellit kinda does with ALVR to use SteamVR streaming to it.oculus go does not connect to pc. oculus go is standalone just like Oculus Quest.
I love what Quest is doing for VR, that said, if I got a stand alone kit it'd have to be a more powerful iteration, Quest 2 or Quest 3, hopefully with a modern high end mobile chipset of the era rather than something weaker/older as this.
if they could have put a Snapdragon 855 in there or something close to that I'd have been all over it. For now I'm happy with my tethered PCVR and its own advantages (and disadvantages).
OP, nice plan for what games to get but also check out Apex Construct, it's a pretty cool action adventure. Robo Recall should be free though, or was that just for RIft/S? I know it was free for me when I got my Rift.
Yes, Rec Room is cross-play on all devices. Quest doesn't have access to everything yet, but everything will be rolled out over time.I just ordered a Quest, hopefully available for pickup in an hour or so. I kind of wish I didn't read this thread because I have low impulse control when it comes to anything gaming. I don't know much about it, but I love my PSVR so much and I'm just really curious about what other VR systems have to offer. The self contained, portable nature of the Quest seems like a pretty noteworthy aspect too. My wife's main concern is that it doesn't have a social screen, so how can she show everybody how awesome she is at Beat Saber? I told her that she curses too much while playing and it disturbs the children, so it'll be great for her to be able to play locking in the shed, away from others.
Does anyone know if Rec Room on the Quest can connect and play with Rec Room on the PSVR?

I’ve had PSVR since day one, no regrets, love exclusives like Robot Rescue, Wipeout and Everybody’s golf, but there is definitely some set backs to a tethered VR experience. The PSVR isn’t something you can just grab and play quick.
I’m all in on VR and the quest is definitely something I’ll be picking up. Not having to rely on external tracking alone makes it worth the price.
I'd be wary of the Vader game for now, it seems like it's very limited and short, only getting high praise for being Star Wars in VR, I'd wait for all 3 (separately sold) episodes to come out and see what people think of the full thing then. Other than that they seem like good lists.
The true future of virtual reality begins right here
The problem is not the tech now.Reading the impressions on Resetera is pretty amazing. 16 pages of people falling in love with the Quest and VR in general.
This thing is really something special.
The problem is not the tech now.
Its the complete lack of games.
I didn't use my oculus rift for about a year."VR haz no gaems" is the new "Vita has no games". I have nearly a hundred Vita games, some as recent as december 2018. I swear people don't like to actually look out for games and just want to be spoonfed. That's a surefire way to miss out on a lot of great stuff.
Mobile chipset inside it. Some mid/low range snapdragon (I wish it had been high end but oh well) but enough for some cool games.Stand alone, as in, I don't need to a PC?
How does that work?
I've played plenty better than Robo Recall, it's far from my favorite wave shooter. It Seems you only or mostly care for visual polish (which Lone Echo has in spades but again not much else going for it, it'd be called a walking sim if it wasn't in VR). That's fine, you do you, but there are tons of great VR games even if they don't have AAA production values (which doesn't make them tech demos), but if that's what you want then Oculus has a few more out or coming, from Vader series to Asgard's Wrath to Lone Echo II to Stormland and Journey of the Gods (which might not look super high def being made for Quest first but has a nice art style anyway and should look great supersampled when it gets ported to PC). So sure, if you're only looking for very specific experiences maybe there are few for now but that doesn't mean there are few great VR games overall. I play in and out of VR equally these days. And of course even if there are some Nintendo style lulls for people already invested and looking for specific things, that doesn't have to apply to VR newcomers who gain potential access to the whole back library in an instant.I didn't use my oculus rift for about a year.
It def lacks must play titles.
Most games look like tech demos.
That is def fun on labo vr from nintendo for 40$ giving you 100 games
But def not 449 and 30$ a game.
Please show me a game as good as lone echo on rift or robo recall.
As that is my standard

Nifty Quest commercial, this is the kind of advertising VR needs (just in more mainstream channels).
Tbh the PS Move/Aim tracking is so inferior to pretty much every other (modern) VR solution that it's barely a comparable experience (unless just playing gamepad controlled games like Wipeout or Moss) despite all being VR. Even with all the downsides between the lack of tracking behind the back and such for inside out tracking or the tether for PCVR without the expensive wireless add ons or whatever at least in great software they can make you feel like a real part of the VR world with little abstraction compared to PSVR and great possibilities for your interactions within said worlds. Sony should really have invested in a Move 2 without the old model's severe limitations rather than leave that up to the next iteration of their VR platform but oh well, it is what it is. Anyway, moving on. Yeah Quest has its own Oculus store and games. Some are cross buy with PC (if they exist).Well, this is a game changer.
Does the Quest have its own library?
£500 in my country. Fuck that. I'd rather buy a pro + psvr for the extra £100
Really the only thing that psvr has going for it is the library, they do have some good games. But being able to play untethered and walk anywhere you want with the quest is a very big feature. It cannot be understated how much portability changes VRTbh the PS Move/Aim tracking is so inferior to pretty much every other (modern) VR solution

Well it's true being untethered is a great thing but PCVR (except front-facing Rift setups) still usually allows for 360 degree VR even if you gotta mind the cable. At the very least you usually have far more range than the mostly front facing PSVR. And even if you always tend to resort to using an analog stick to turn around at some point, or take the opportunity to revert all your turns to untangle, at least in a given hectic situation you do have the capability to deal with it with instinctive real life movements on the spot. Which rocks. So it's cool to finally be untethered but it's not fundamentally different to me.Really the only thing that psvr has going for it is the library, they do have some good games.

a 2$ google cardboard is a prefect way to introduce people to vr for the first time.
and the immersion is close to a 1000$ solution.
Apex Construct is more like at least 5 hours long and stuff like Beat Saber and Space Pirate Trainer are all about replayability/doing better etc.I'm really undecided on which game to get first. They are a lot more expensive than I would like (I mean, I just spend $400 on the Quest itself, so I'm not is a position to spend $30 on games that last less than an hour) and I'm really not sure what the best use of money is (I've already got SuperHot VR and Moss on the PSVR too). I'm kind of leaning towards the MMO (OrbusVR?). Even though it is the most expensive and with the most mixed review, I feel like there'd be a lot of value there and I'm a little miffed that Rec Room only has Paintball working right now (I want my Rec Royale!)
