Do I just need any version of the game to play in VR?

Yes.

Yes - it's worth picking up the first hour demo.

Also if you liked Thumper in VR (which, of course you did, because it's amazing) you might like Polybius.  It's a Jeff Minter thing, and as such has all his idiosyncrasies, which you will either find delightful or utterly infuriating.  However, in VR, I'd say it's his best game - on a good playthrough it becomes both incredibly intense and weirdly relaxing, as well as being very trippy indeed.

Oh, and I also really liked Statik.  It's an odd little puzzle game, where your hands are sealed within a series of boxes, and you have to figure out how manipulating the controller affects the box, and by extension the game world.  It's intriguing, odd and often funny.  It also has a bafflingly hidden two player asymmetric mode where player two uses a phone/ipad via the Playstation App.  The two player version only has 3 levels, but they're really fun to work through.  The whole thing's kind of reminiscent of Portal, only you're rooted to the spot.

Meanwhile, mentioning Statik also reminds me about Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, which is the closest thing to a VR party game I've seen.  The person wearing the headset is in a room with a bomb, but no instructions.  Other players can see the manual on the TV screen.  (Or online, or print it out.)  Much screaming of instructions follows.

Meanwhile I'm yet to play Superhot VR.  I backed the original on Kickstarter and they sent out VR codes for the Oculus version to all backers, and I was kind of expecting similar for PSVR but it never emerged...

Thanks for the recommendations.

I've picked up Job Simulator which is just hilarious. Will be trying out Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes later this evening. Have Lady Tiger's family around and we're having an absolute riot.

Tin - I dare say I'll pick up Polybius at some point but I should probably stop myself from going too crazy. I've got Skyrim, Thumper, Rush of Blood, Job Simulator, VR Worlds, Superhot... plenty to be getting on with!

That it is.

Can't move past Superhot VR though. Staggeringly well put together. Genuinely makes you feel like a superhero.

Was never a great fan of it in normal, will give it a try in VR if it improves things.

Is it a cockpit view or something?

Race the Sun

Yeah, I'm up for anything in VR.

Been hearing some good words about the PS4/smartphone crossover games, and wanted to start a thread, but thought better of it.

Are they any good?

Frantics is coming soon, looks like a decent Mario Party type thing.

Guys, is there anywhere cheaper than CDKeys for a 3-month Plus subscription at the moment (£16.89)?

Not unless there’s a voucher code pops up in the couple days. There are always cheap shared accounts for sale on eBay if you wish to go down that route (add it to the PS4 as another user and all users on that console have access to PSN).

Finally gave Hex Machina a shot. Holy moly, that's like a fizzy sherbet bomb of a game. Quality stuff. Piss pad for it.

If it's the original one definitely get shot, if a slim that's up to you but seems pointless keeping both. I'd sell /swap/ buy an original Xbox one with Forza 6 /horizon 2 and get some driving kicks.

Been trying to set up my Pro this morning and it's a pain, it's managed to factory reset itself twice when trying to do the transfer. I've found an external drive and I'm now copying everything to that, I presume that will work once I hook it up to the Pro.

Yeah, it said something about a possible network error and I did lose my internet for a few hours earlier, so it might still be a bit dodgy.

You could enjoy Infinifactory from the beginning again though.  Every cloud.
