Trackmania Turbo VR (PSVR)

Date Purchased:  April 4, 2018

Price: Free (PS+)

I'm really itching for a VR racing game after spending a few hours of this completing the campaign and getting gold on all 40 tracks.  This is the single greatest sense of immersion I've ever experienced in a game.  It's truly amazing.  The only downfall is how short it is, I wish the whole game could be played in VR.  Recommend @ free (duh) but probably not worth buying unless it's less than $5.

Until Dawn: Rush of Blood (PSVR)

Wow, 2 years on the old pile and I finally finished it.  I recently picked up a used Playstation VR, and I downloaded this freebie.  I didn't particularly love it, the aesthetic is horrifying and I didn't want my young children to be tempted to play it.  Essentially it's an on rails shooter set in the Until Dawn universe.  The original game is much better but I had a pretty good time with this game.  It's a shooting gallery, has some neat concepts, but the experience ultimately feels pretty flat and repetitive.  It's hard to get into the setting with colorful targets all around you as ride around in a cart.  The final boss was neat but ultimately frustrating.  After the first level the game doesn't throw much "new" at you.  If you happened to get it for free it's worth a shot, but if you need to put money down on it, pass.

Apex Legends (PS4)

I fell in and out of Apex Legends pretty quick.  It seems like the rest of the internet did as well.  No doubt the game is still popular, but the aspirations to overtake Fortnite are over by this point.  This is another "battle royale" where 100 players drop into a map, this time however, you're put into squads of 3.  It's fun with peers, but I never found the game enjoyable solo.  It has a great cast of characters, cool weapons and abilities, but after 100 games or so, I really tired of looting for 10 minutes only to die in 10 seconds.  Maybe I'll come back one day, and at "free" it's definitely worth the price of admission.  I even bought the first battle pass as a "tip" to the developers.  Recommend.
