Must-Have Experiences in the DK2

Elite : Dangerous This list begins with a game that is extraordinary even outside of the DK2,
With incredible graphics, 50+ systems, Advanced landing scenarious and an incredible Dev team
You don't want to miss out on experiencing this in VR!
Note; Some people have reportedly shed a tear upon seeing this beauty in VR!

- Link; Will add links when home from work, damned blockers!

Helix Rollercoaster A game that was brilliant even in DK1 has only gotten better with DK2,
An immersive and built to scale replica of an incredible rollercoaster with great soundtrack
and the ability to repeat as many times as you like by returning to the station, this is well
worth your time!

Cyber Space is a rollercoaster that is graphically amazing and gives you the immersion of Sitting in it and get shot in the Air.
*thank you Arcon

Technolust is an awesome Techdemo in a futuristic neon city with some cyberpunk elements. Kinda an Adventure Game but within its atmospheric brilliant immersion.

Couch Knights A game made in the Unreal 4 Engine, availalbe to all who download the engine in the startup / marketplace menu. Play as a guy sat on a couch with a controller in their hand (just like real life). The trick is to watch as a realistic lounge scene is torn apart by little chibi knights you control to kill one another! Capable of networking with one other player for assured Multiplayer Mayhem!

______________________________________________________________________________________________________
I have been spending more and more time with my fellow devs on these forums and have wanted to offer something usefull to all of you for some time. I realise a thread or two like this may already exist, however none of them have remained near the top of the page for very long.

With your help I want to compile a list that holds all of the best experiences around for the DK2, game like Elite Dangerous, where just looking around the inside of a station has brought a tear to many eyes already.

If you have the time, please just take a minute out of your day to post the name of the game, a link to either it's website or to the download, and a short review with a few pros and cons.

Thank you for contributing to this amazing virtual world!

Doing it this way, the list will soon be just redundant as it will have almost any title in it that just works with the DK2. I think what we might be searching for are really outstanding experiences. So you should at least be able to give us a clue why this particular experience is so absolutely fascinating that everyone should have tried it!

You know, as in: "Wow, this really blew me right away and I cried three buckets full with teary water!"
Or maybe: "Guys, this experience is what I have been waiting for since I was 3 days old! Ask my grandpa!!!"

This goes in the right direction as created by the OP. But it seems that some of the people recommending something here don't know why they do.

Just throwing names doesn't explain anything.

Ah, now, with that said, I feel better.

I've tried most demos, i've been most impressed with CyberSpaceDK2 and SolarSystemExplorer.. I've backed Elite but not really willing to pay 60 euro to beta test it too, SolarsystemExplorer should give you an idea though and its free..

Good point


Maybe Thumbnails, pictures or logos would be helpful, too.

I would also add the Whirligig video player. Watched my first 360 degree movie on it, some oldschool stereoscopic pictures and even normal videos are fun because you can watch them on a huge curved "imax" screen.
