VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "Now that Meta Quest 3 and PSVR2 have had a full year on the market, there's a clearer window from these platforms in the long run. Like the console space, there's less of a unique ethos between them and the older SteamVR – other than their headset shape and controller configuration. Of course, that's not universally the case, as there is one exclusive that made our 2024 shortlist. But the overriding theme across VR platforms last year is one of substantial iteration & familiarity versus world-changing revolution & exclusivity. With that in mind, let's take a gander at our finalists."
Batman: Arkham Shadow demonstrates how satisfying a VR Batman story can truly be, and the series could continue to thrive this way.
Batman: Arkham Shadow's recently added post-credits scene puts into perspective how significant Dick Grayson's role could be in a possible sequel.
Making a VR Batman game comparable to the flat versions is no small feat. You get all the elements of an Arkham game.
No question about it metro was amazing
It's an absolute shame that Arkham Shadow is locked behind the Quest 3. There's really no reason that Quest can't do a PC desktop version for those on a Q2. They used to support their desktop app platform more. It would potentially run better anyways. I'm just not ready to upgrade my headset yet, as i have had it just short of 2 years now. When I can, i always opt to buy my VR games on Steam.
Btw, I'd add Subside as an honorable mention too. While not very gamey, it was the most incredible VR diving experience I've had to date, and finding/collecting all of the collectibles was actually a ton of fun, as it unlocked diving upgrades.
Yea Batman is very cool, but now playing contract exfil, I will get Metro also next
