It's been too pleasant a day.. time to start VR riots here in system wars :D I've been enjoying great games on Oculus and PSVR. Half Life will be a great addition to all the AAA games already out on the platforms.

But really been waiting for community driven persistent world games like Division or Ghost Recon(1st one) or Destiny where I can play games with others in VR.. C'mon devs! [Maybe a VR compatible if not fully focused like NMS] Rec Room is somewhat half way there..

What do you guys think? This will really take gaming to next level. - Ready playa 1

Firewall: Zero Hour is easily the best multiplayer shooter VR game, and imo the best VR multiplayer game, period. Thing is, it is exclusive to PSVR, so the community is bound to that headset. That being said getting into a match takes at most a few minutes because the fanbase is strong, and there are always a bunch of PSVR players online. Getting a good squad, peeking around corners, blind firing, calling out tactics, shooting through doorknob holes--it never gets old. The game just becomes this amazing tactical experience once you start to get over the learning curve and can actually compete with the vets.

As for other community-type VR games, as well as standard AAA games in general (the latest industry rumor, which has some substance behind it, is Horizon Zero Dawn on PSVR) other than what already exists, just wait. It will come. Half-Life is a huge step for VR. With Valve getting involved in such a big way, more and more AAA devs are going to take notice. Next gen, starting next year, is going to be big for VR.

Apparently Boneworks was originally a Halflife game and greatly influenced Valve with this.
