Open-world, evolving, and absolutely gorgeous — Stormland VR review

I just ripped off my arm, upgraded it to a pulse bomb laser, leaped off a cliff, flew to an adjacent tower jutting into the sky, and leaped down to create a massive explosion, scattering enemy robots in all directions. It turns out, being a well-upgraded combat-enabled robot is a

Rhythmic murder in motion — Pistol Whip VR review

It’s a good time for rhythm games in virtual reality. Developer Cloudhead Games has folded together the gunplay of the John Wick movies, a splash of the gun kata from Equilibrium, stirred with it the pulse-pounding action of Beat Saber, dropped in some Superhot for spicy flavor, and packed

Move over Beat Saber, there’s a new VR music master — Synth Riders VR review

I’m always on the lookout for the next party-capable VR game that can serve as an introduction to the medium. There are “experience” games aplenty, and power fantasy games like Gorn are always a hit, but it’s music games that always draw people in. Synth Riders looks to

The Angry Birds Movie 2 VR: Under Pressure PSVR review

“Oooohhhhh boy. A movie tie-in. Brace yourself for boredom” I thought when The Angry Birds Movie 2 VR: Under Pressure came across my desk. Then I realized that I had a superfan who would be bust-at-the-seams excited to check this out…that is, if I could fit a VR helmet

Port wrangling — Accell USB-C VR Adapter review

If you’ve been reading Gaming Trend for a while you’ve likely noticed that I have a serious love of virtual reality. There is one thing that I have to readily admit that prevents it from becoming as mainstream as it could be — the constant fiddling that goes on

Down with the sickness — Wolfenstein Cyberpilot Vive review

I absolutely love the MachineGames Wolfenstein titles. They have remarkably tight storylines full of compelling characters and stories. The thought of experiencing the frenetic Nazi-killing universe they’ve created in virtual reality is exciting. I’ve got a 2080 Ti, I’ve got a HTC Vive Pro, and I’ve

Virtual spycraft — Defector review on Oculus Rift

There’s a reason we keep going to watch Tom Cruise pretend to be a superspy in the Mission Impossible flicks. Sure, there’s plenty of action, but it’s the gadgets, the intrigue, the hand-to-hand combat, and the storyline twists that draw you in. Defector from Twisted Pixel and
