Oculus Quest recs?

[HiLife]

They're back in stock in Best Buy I just secured one that should be arriving on Tuesday. I hope. I was stuck between this and PSVR for Astrobot, Wipeout and Squadrons but I figured I'd wait for PS5 and a potentially upgraded VR2.

Anybody mind throwing out some must have games? I'm really eager to play Echo Arena. Looks like Enders Game to me. I also don't have a desktop, so linking is out of the question.

Oh yeah Beat Saber is also something I buying day 1. Is it relatively simple to upload custom songs?

Not sure, I've never done it before.

I actually just tried Echo Arena for the first time and it's a hoot. There's the obviously recommendation of Beat Saber, Pistol Whip, etc. But make sure you grab SideQuest because there's some cool stuff like Pavlov Shack.

There is an entire app that you can sideload that has a custom song browser that makes it stupid easy to install them. :)

I don't have many games yet. Beat Saber and Super Hot are obviously must-haves on any platform. I'm going to try out Shadow Point as I grabbed it the other day. BoxVR is a pretty simple but neat workout game, although you can probably do just as well and have more fun with Beat Saber. I'm considering Pistol Whip as well. The Wizards and Ghost Giants were pretty fun on PSVR too.

Don't forget the apps. Skybox VR plays all your 2D, 3D and VR movies and can be configured to read off your network shared files. You can get movies to play in a virtual theathre if you'd like. Also, I haven't gotten it yet but Virtual Desktop allows you to stream VR games off your PC if you also do a little legwork with opening the Quest to sideloading.

Sweeeeeeeet. I'm so amped for Tuesday. So many cool games I keep seeing on the subreddit that developers talk about. A virtual coloring book (Color Space) seems like absolute heaven.

Superhot! Yeah I played that a little on console but experiencing in VR is clearly the optimal way. I'm excited. My wallet be damned. Lol.

Also, there's another SideQuest app I heavily recommend. It's a smaller little title, but it's excellent. It's called Tea for God. I really opened my eyes to what the Quest is capable of. I don't want to give away too much, but it makes you feel like your playing space is way larger than it actually is.

Edit: It's also free.

Just YouTube'd this and the music sounds amazing . Thumper VR also looks good. Which begs the question, do I need headphones or does it have speakers on the side of the headset? Cause if so *pulls out wallet*

there's speakers, but headphones are like super recommended!!

Side load CrisisVRigade if you like Time Crisis or on-rails shooters. It's great.

Just got myself an Oculus Quest... What should I be playing on it?

Going to pick up a 64 gig unit later today. What are the must have games? I've never really used VR before, so it doesn't matter how old the titles are as I've never played any of them.

...so i overpaid for an oculus quest...recommend me some must have quest games!

Like the title says. I paid about 200 bucks over msrp for a 64 gb quest. I reeeaallly wanted to play in vr. I know the big ones like super hot and beat saber. Can i play half life alyx with it if all i have is a windows surface? What other great vr games are on it?

My Oculus Quest is finally here! What do I try first?

Oh man, I've been trying to get one of these for MONTHS and finally! Finally I have one! The question is what should I break the ice with? I have a PC as well, so PC VR game recommendations are great too Anything I should know about handling my headset before I get started as well?

If you legally own and can dump virtual boy games, there is an incredible virtual boy emulator on sidequest

If you're gonna sideload and you have strong VR legs, there's a bunch of classic PC stuff you can buy on sale on Steam. You need to buy the PC version because you need the files to run these mods on Quest. Stuff like Half-Life 1, Quake, Quake 2, Doom (and all the games that ran on those engines). Those games are all super cheap on Steam right now.

I picked up Pistol Whip last week. Honestly, as a rhythm game, I think I like it better than Beat Saber.
