    The Walking Dead Saints and Sinners - Oculus Quest 2

    This is THE zombie experience game ladies and gentlemen.
    Absolutely amazing.
    It's set in the Telltale universe and the VR element is incredible. The atmosphere and tension is spot on. You will get overwhelmed and panic at some point through the creeping dread and number of zombies. There isn't hordes, just enough to fuck you up if you aren't paying attention or you run out of weapons.
    It's a scavenging/crafting/story mission type of gameplay loop and boy does it work. Bit more gore would have been nice but there are hardware limitations with the Quest. It's amazing what they have been able to do though.

    I bought this one around the time it came out last year and was playing it on my HTC Vive. It's a lot of fun and pretty brutal when it comes to dispatching zombies. I've not been on it for a while but now the weather is cooling off and I can use my VR again without my head sweating I'll be having another go.

    This is the first game I picked up for my Quest 2 at the beginning of the year.
    I had one issue. My Quest 2 locked up during a system update and I had to do a full factory reset.
    I was able to connect the Quest to my PC and save data from my games on there prior to the reset.
    However, when I reloaded the game, it did not see any of my saved progress for Walking Dead but it did for others.
    At the time, I was up to Day 7 in the game.
    Back to the beginning for me...but I don't mind it for this game.

    Finished the main game and now onto the free Aftershocks DLC.
    Very, very enjoyable experience. When those church bells start tolling, boy does it get you panicked every time.
    I bought the Quest 2 just for this game after playing it at my nephews and my worry is its just going to be downhill from here for game choice.
    This deservedly seems to be highly, highly rated but whats next? I don't have a good enough PC for Boneworks or Alyx.
    Any suggestions?

    I can't play any of the PC VR games either because you can't buy a graphics card these days (unless you want to overpay).
    Beat Saber is popular if you like music games. I hate the songs on there but I modded it to play custom songs (more to my liking).
    On the sports side, I have Walkabout Mini Golf. This game was a good value buy because it had 3 courses when I bought it and now there are 8 (5 more courses at no extra charge).
    If you like mystery / escape room type games, The Room VR: A Dark Matter is highly recommended along with Red Matter.
    I have bought all these games on sale or with the 30% off that Oculus seems to send me every other month.

    Another modded game worth playing is Doom 3. You have to own the game on Steam (which I bought for $1.99) and then follow the modding instructions which you can find on the internet.
    Such a different game when you are playing inside of it. It's like a VR house of horrors.

    The upcoming Resident Evil 2 VR mod is looking really nice.

    I find it's the movement (walking/running) that lets things like this down, and also risks being uncomfortable in game at times.
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.
