The big thing right now is eye tracking.  Currently with most VR, the only way to look around is to move your head, while it is immersive it isn't quite up to the level it could be.  Some of the new V

I bought a cheap 3d camera and made a VR porn.   The quality is pretty bad and will be terrible in decades from now, but oh will I cherish it regardless.

I'm not Chuck, but we have Beat Saber, all 3 Vader episodes and The Walking Dead.

The Walking Dead is ridiculously cool and super impressive.

Beat Saber is so great and is perhaps the most fun I've had playing a game ever. I highly recommend the following site:

https://bsaber.com

Once you do a few things to your Oculus, you're able to download user made songs from the community, some of which are amazing. You have to try out the "Shia Labeouf" one. The site has full instructions.

I'm super happy with having just pulled the trigger on a Quest 2 rather than spending my time trying to get a new console.

Also, we got the Logitech earbuds made for the Quest 2. They're a little pricey, bit worth it.

Is the Walking Dead too harsh for kids.  I've got a 11 and 13 year old and they'd probably really dig it but don't want to scar them worse than I already have.

I'll have to check out the site you suggested.  Take Beatsaber to another level.  Any games you are considering moving forward.

Thanks not Chuck!

@HaloMilliVanilli & @fishbulb I've been hooked since I got the Oculus Quest 2.

These are the games that I have purchased so far. 

Vader Immortal Episodes 1-3, Death Horizon: Reload, Beat Saber, The Thrill of the Fight, Contractors, Eleven Table Tennis, Drop Dead: Dual Strike Edition and Tripp (premium subscription). 

So yeah, I'm busy. I think on average I'm in the VR world 2-3 hours a day now. A much better place to be of late. 

Anyhow, I highly recommend the Thrill of the Fight for a good workout. You don't have to be the best boxer, but holy hell is it a workout trying to beat your opponents. Most realistic boxing VR game ever created. 

The two Zombies games are fun. I play multiplayer with my 25 year old son in Arizona on both of them (Death Horizon, Drop Dead). Once I'm done with these two I may try out the Walking Dead one. Looks like it's also a good one. 

I've only finished episode 1 of Vader Immortal. I got all three on a Christmas deal for 25 bucks. Super fun! 

My wife and 18 year old daughter player Beat Saber way more than I, on average for about 30 minutes a piece every day. But they're in Florida right now so I'm spending a ton of time on the VR in their absence. I'll check out that music pack Rally. 

I haven't played Contractors yet, but I hear it's like Call of Duty. 

The game I play the most is Eleven Table Tennis. Man, best Ping Pong experience ever. It's like you have your own table and random online opponents. I love to talk to folks and play. My son and I talk trash and beat each other up on there al the time. 

TRIPP. Oh man. Download the demo and when you have a chance for a little quiet in your house, try it out. It's really for anxiety and stress and it teaches you how to properly breathe which help with both of those and to get into a relaxing state. I liked the DEMO so much I purchased the premium annual subscription for $9.99 for the year. It's worth it. 

The new headstrap I got is much better than what comes with the Quest 2. I may look into the battery pack and the 360 headphones. Pretty awesome if you can hear shit behind you in surround sound. Are those the logitech ones you're referring to Rally? My son said he picked up a pair on the cheap for 10 bucks.

Let's keep this chat going.

@Chuckster70, you been using the Oculus lately at all?

Yep, every day almost. 

If I'm not shooting Zombies, or bad guys, I'm playing the Thrill of the Fight boxing game. Not only is it fun, but I've incorporated it into my cardio workouts. 

Holy hell is it a great workout. 

My wife and daughter play Beat Saber all the time as well. It gets at least an hour of usage a day between the three of us, sometimes much more. 

I still have to play the three Jedi games I purchased. I only started the first one and it was tons of fun.

Well, after they introduced the quest 2 128 gb model I got one.  And of course the first purchase I made, f'd it up since I bought it on my pc, and it was for the rift.  So had to contact customer service to get a refund.  Stupid pc store doesn't filter out what I have, vs everything.  

Anyways, now debating between Arizona Sunshine and Walking Dead.  So @Chuckster70, @RallyMo, @HaloMilliVanilli if any of you have a recommendation I'd appreciate it.  

Think I'll get thrill of the fight, since a cardio game sounds good. 

I'm also probably going to get Climb.  Because I'm deathly afraid of heights, but it looks really cool.  And there aren't really many nature or exploring or hiking type games out there.

I use my Oculus every day for working out, occasionally games. 

I recommend everyone that wants to stay fit or lose weight to purchase the Thrill of the Fight boxing game. 

@John Taylor & @Crampknees knows because I brought mine to Texas that it's an amazing workout. 

I go about 5-10 rounds with two different opponents  5-6 days a week and get a gnarly sweat going. It also works your core and tons your arms/shoulders as well, in addition to amazing cardio.
