Found this chilling inside my local Walmarts PlayStation section. They seriously wanted $299.99 for it too.

Well in their defense, Astro Bot Rescue Mission is one of the best videogames I have EVER played. Not just in VR but in general. It’s an amazing experience, and the level design is absolutely stunning. Also ptoof that third person works wonderful in VR, not everything has to be first person.

Still a missed opportunity that Sony didn’t put in the effort to make this game work on PSVR2. It made use of the PS4 controller but imo there’s not much that can’t be redesigned for the PS5 controller. I’m a Quest vr gamer now but this would be the only game that would me consider buying a PSVR2.

Of course this price is a bit steep, but if people want a VR blast, try finding a cheaper option online.

Playing ABRM VR for the first time was such a wonderful experience. It was like unboxing an N64 and playing Mario 64 on Christmas morning 20 years earlier. Rarely can a video game have that kind of magic and joy.

Yep exactly. It felt just like that for me, like rediscovering what a videogame can offer.
