Your Top Rated VR Game/Experiences of 2016

[Shadowmask72]

A lot of cool experiences in the year 2016 but if you had to choose one that you'd rate the highest what would it be?

For me I spent a lot of time across multiple systems and really enjoyed them all but I'm going to be deliberately awkward and say the Resident Evil 7 demo on the PSVR with a PS4 Pro was the best VR experience of 2016 paving way for the full game in a few weeks - think Dreadhalls on steroids. Really polished and felt like a AAA VR game. Before people get their panties in a twist the PC version should get VR support some months later.

Runner Up, RIGS or Battlezone (the latter coming to rift at some point also).

My top 10 VR Games for 2016:

1. War Thunder - Seated + Flight Stick w/ Throttle
2. Trickster VR - Standing with Free Locomotion + Touch
3. Redout - Seated + Xbox Controller
4. New Retro Arcade: Neon - Seated + Mouse/Keyboard
5. Doom3 + VR Mod - Standing with Free Locomotion + Touch
6. Serious Sam VR: The First Encounter - Standing with Free Locomotion + Touch
7. DolphinVR + Metroid Prime 1/2 - Seated + Xbox Controller
8. Onward - Standing with Free Locomotion + Touch
9. The Climb - Standing + Touch
10. Chronos - Seated + Xbox Controller

A lot of good games coming and going but I keep going back to War Thunder. As an old school flight sim jockey, playing this game in Simulator Battles with HMD and flight stick is incredible. I don't think I'll be putting it down any time soon.

Elite Dangerous.  It's the most immersive game yet and is the only real full game that also has world (galactic) persistence.  I think it's amazing it could achieve this without even touch controllers.

Elite Dangerous!! I have thousands of hours in that game, first in DK2 and now in CV1. Together with HOTAS and flight assist off this is the best game ever 🙂

Presence, immersion, longevity, beauty, mahoosiveness (it's a word, definitely).

Elite Dangerous.

DCS, hands down.

For me, SuperHot was the standout. Medium is also really good, though.

Really enjoyed playing pCars and ETS2 at the start of the year when I first got my Vive/CV1, was also amazed at ED but the learning curve was to big for me so never really got into it.

When touch came out I hadnt picked up my CV1 in months because of GPU mixup meant I was months without one. Then one day I opened a package that had been lying in my office and found a pair of touch that I never even knew I ordered. That was great and prompted me to order a new gpu to be delivered the following day. Ive had many great experiences with the touch controllers in the short time Ive had them, The Climb being one of them.

But, If I was to pick a single moment that really blew me away in VR last year id have to say the Bookcase sequence in Chronos.  I was awe struck and had a big cheesy grin during that scene, so thats probably my favourite VR moment of 2016.

I'm really liking the Climb with Touch, but if I had to pick one, I too would pick a PlayStation VR game. Batman Arkham VR. It was short but sweet.

Superhot VR - Hands down, or you know.
