Shaun Munro reviews Moss on PSVR… Moss is without question PSVR’s most-anticipated game of 2018, winning the hearts of headset owners way back at its E3 debut last June, and building up a strong head of hype ever since. Thankfully, the year’s second “AAA” PSVR title is for the most part a terrifically executed, endearingly cute […]
Video Game Review – Blasters of the Universe
Shaun Munro reviews Blasters of the Universe… With PSVR not exactly enjoying a surging start to 2018 – we’re still stinging from the disappointment of The Inpatient – Secret Location’s Blasters of the Universe couldn’t really come at a better time. An unassuming VR shooter that excels by executing a familiar premise with sure panache, the game boasts […]
Video Game Review – The Inpatient
Shaun Munro reviews The Inpatient… The Inpatient is Supermassive Games’ much-anticipated follow-up to their acclaimed VR rail-shooter Until Dawn: Rush of Blood, and with promises of a rich, cinematic story that takes full, terrifying advantage of Sony’s headset, it truly seemed like the game might be the first big AAA VR hit of 2018. There’s no joy at […]
Video Game Review – The Solus Project
Shaun Munro reviews The Solus Project… Released for PC and Xbox One last year, survival exploration game The Solus Project has finally landed on PS4, complete with full PSVR support, and though it certainly offers players a lengthy experience, the game’s highly un-intuitive mechanics ultimately hold it back from being the VR answer to No Man’s […]
Video Game Review – Radial-G: Racing Revolved
Shaun Munro reviews Radial-G: Racing Revolved… Futuristic racer Radial-G: Racing Revolved will certainly be a tantalising proposition for many PSVR owners, given that the closest they’ve gotten to a VR future-racer to date is playing WipEout: Omega Collection in cinematic mode with the largest possible screen size and the game’s cockpit view selected. Though one would […]
Radial-G coming to PSVR and PS4 this September
Arriving on the 12th September from Tammeka and Perp, on both PSVR and the PS4, is the critically acclaimed arcade space racer Radial-G.

Video Game Review – Superhot VR
Shaun Munro reviews Superhot VR… Pretty much anyone who’s ever seen The Matrix has surely fantasised about pulling a Neo and bending backwards in slow-motion while performing a gravity-defying bullet dodge, right? Well, that dream has finally become a reality with Superhot VR, which mostly makes good on bringing last year’s original 2D version of the game to […]
Video Game Review – Star Trek: Bridge Crew
Shaun Munro reviews Star Trek: Bridge Crew… Card-carrying Trekkies and newbies alike should find plenty to enjoy in Red Storm Entertainment’s socially-minded VR jaunt Star Trek: Bridge Crew. Without question one of the most satisfying and nuanced PSVR titles to date, its keen focus on communication-driven co-op multiplayer should ensure it enjoys a healthy online community for the foreseeable […]
Video Game Review – VR Karts
Shaun Munro reviews VR Karts… Viewpoint Games’ VR Karts attempts to infuse greater immersion into the much-loved Mario Kart formula, and tantalising though that idea sounds on paper, the depressingly lacking end product makes it a disappointing failure. The gameplay loop is essentially Mario Kart to a T; you race around short, colourful maps, collecting speed boosts and power-ups which can then […]
Video Game Review – Statik
Shaun Munro reviews Statik… If you enjoy crisply immersive VR graphics, bone-dry humour and feeling like an absolute idiot, Tarsier Studios’ Statik just might be the game for you. Providing yet more evidence that non-roomscale VR is simply better-suited to seated, static (or rather, statik) experiences, this unassuming yet devilishly tricky puzzler represents some of the […]
