Oh sorry I got the implication you wanted recommendations for you because you thought it was shite! To be honest and please don’t take this as a dig because it’s not, there isn’t many VR games geared towards 9 year olds because you’re supposed to be 12 or 13 to use it. Beat Saber is fun but the songs aren’t as openly known or accessible as say Rock Band/Guitar Hero. If they like Platformers then Moss 1 and 2 are decent but there’s some tough bits you might need to help them on. Superhot VR is a great shooter that to my memory has no gore in it and all the enemies are made of glass so it’s fairly child friendly. If you don’t mind them playing online Rec Room is free and fairly fun. Kind of Roblox-y in that it’s custom made rooms and games and there is a setting to match with kids only I believe but that comes with it’s obvious dangers. You can get some Five Nights at Freddies VR stuff too if they’re into that. Sadly most of the best VR games are shooters and horror games so he might struggle after the initial buzz has wore off.

I'm not massively arsed with them consuming cartoonish violence, but their Mum feels slightly different. 6 minutes ago, FelatioLips said: Oh sorry I got the implication you wanted recommendations for you because you thought it was shite!

Cheers. I think it came with Beat Saber. Will pass on those recs, but not that bloody Freddie shite. They watch enough of that on YouTube Edited December 25, 2022 by SuperBacon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 One thing I'd maybe steer clear of is VRChat, if you thought old school chat sites were dodgy this takes on another level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wargroove is great and definitely worth a look.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree except in the past few weeks a few more well known songs and packs have been added. Had a good Freebird session yesterday, and Blinded By The Lights might be the perfect Beat Saber track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wordsfromlee Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 After getting it last year for Christmas and giving up on it very quickly, I've re-started playing Ghost of Tsushima and I'm enjoying it second time round. I still think its a bit style-over-substance, but it's enjoyable enough and I reckon I'll see it through to the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
