I own dirt, lucky's tail and valkyrie Eve. So far.. these games no longer entertain me. What other game should I look at for wow fact? I don't want to drop too much money on this. Recommend me some cool vr apps..  or games.. lol.. Is google street view still not working with oculus rift cv1?

There will be a black friday sale this weekend on Oculus Home so you should be able to get yourself some good deals on there! 🙂

Depending on your tastes ofc, off the top of my head I'd recommend Chronos, Dragon Front(free), Blazerush, Eagle Flight, Defence Grid 2 and Damaged Core. I got the most playtime and fun out of these so far 🙂

What exactly do you mean by wow factor, great use of VR, epic scale, great graphics?

I honestly thought The Solus Project was overall a "wow" game for me, the sense of atmosphere on a creepy alien planet, and visually impressive too. It's a slow start but once you get into it it's great. On sale on Steam at the moment.

Edge of Nowhere I thought had a few wow moments but that's still quite expensive at £30.

Maybe try Adrift if you can stomach it (also on sale on Steam), visually stunning and gives a real sense of floating in space.

I just wanted to add that ADR1FT sucks..
Solus is good without VR - as you need to do a lot of technical moves and jumps.. I do not think it suits VR and there is a chunder factor.

Elite: Dangerous, fully set up, with a HOTAS and when you have enough time to enjoy it.
Big PC, all the headsets, now using Quest 3

Elite Dangerous, Adr1ft, Project CARS and War Thunder played with a steering wheel or HOTAS.

When I was playing Adr1ft I just kept on saying 'oh my god this is SO FUCKING COOOOOOL!!!' over and over again lol. It really felt like I was stuck in space in a spacesuit. I got a mixture of agoraphobia and claustrophobia and really started to feel stressed out when my air started to run out. And of course being an Unreal driven game it looks amazing too.

I really enjoy Edge Of Nowhere. Elite Dangerous I haven't played in a while because you need to invest a lot of time even for a simple mission. However this game is a true beauty. Feral Rites is not that bad either, I like the overall feeling I get when playing it. You might to give Darknet a go, it really feels like Neuromancer or Shadowrun.

Chronos still has the #1 spot for me.

Yup, Chronos was a pretty damn awesome introductory to VR for me.

For VR "wow factor" Eagle Flight and The Climb are it. If you would rather just have a fun, deep game that will keep you busy for a while, Chronos is great.
