Its basically No Limits Coaster, but free. Bring some sturdy VR legs!

Lots of tracks in game and on Steam Workshop.

Been saving this.

This is a big one. And Free!!! (unbelievably)

Its essentially the best thing in VR since sliced bread, and if you bother with nothing else I’ve posted in this thread, bother with this.

Watch movies from comfortable settings alone, with friends or in theatres full of strangers. Watch tv shows, Netflix… whatever… in glorious hi res.

Why would you ever go to a regular theatre again? You could get Quests or Rifts for the whole family and have them hang out with you from all over the world virtually while playing and chatting together or while watching a show…

Get this before they come to their senses and begin charging for the app.

My first reaction was do wonder about the use of narcotics by game developers, but in fact this is actually not a bad free game!

The problem with games that require multiplayer, most especially in VR, is in attracting enough long term players to keep your matchmaking server from becoming a barren wasteland, which eventually kills your game.

I have seen this issue take down more than a few games, and to combat this, these particular developers have made their formerly paid game free to help expand the player base. They’ve also added the ability to play against AI players when humans are scarce.

Time will tell if this saves the game and you are lucky to get it for free before it becomes paid again, or if this is the games last gasp.

Lets find out!

Essentially a Demo of Trickster VR. I liked it enough to buy the full game…

For any space enthusiasts, this is a great little experience. It’s very short, about 10 minutes, but it’s a beautifully made journey from the moon back to earth with a great speech by Edgar Mitchell.

Got stress? Go berserk and smash crap in room-scale vr. What could be simpler!

FREE (Think Xbox controller is required)

Omg…

Lets get this out there right away. You need your best and sturdiest VR legs for this one. The graphics and rides are such that unless you have the strongest of stomachs, you are not only in danger of losing everything you’ve eaten this week, but everything your friends, neighbors and possibly your dog or cat has eaten as well.

I was mostly unaffected, but the fact that I, as vr immune as I usually am, felt even slightly perturbed (and could easily imagine others hurling for hours) should be warning enough for most people. Ride with care!

FREE to PLAY (DLC EXPANSIONS)

Tangential to another thread, I’m adding one of the better examples/demos of current Oculus Quest hand tracking capabilities.

Get that heart pumping! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :smiley: :grin:

If ya’ like dominos and vr, but never had the patience of setting them up one-by-one in real life…

Sequel to a surprise hit that featured the voice talents of several uncredited famous people. I wonder who will be in this one?

I and many others have been hovering over this tron-esque game for a while; like anxious hens waiting for the egg to hatch.

Demo finally released! (though I hear there may be a problem on AMD systems…)

Not sure about this one. Could be good, could be bad. Doesn’t look like anything I would normally try. Lets see…

I always say a prayer for the developers of these types of games, because, as I’ve said before, especially in the VR space, PVP and multiplayer games must acquire, and more importantly retain a sufficient number of people to remain viable over time, and so far in VR, that’s pretty much never happened besides flukes like Pavlov.

Good luck!
