    FFS I got it on PS4 then noticed it's free on GamePass and 3 quid on Xbox.

    Is this a VR game or can it be played with the controller?


  • Posts: 0 ✭✭✭ Adaline Lemon Plan


    Pretty sure it's VR only mate.

    seems they removed that requirement and can be played pancake now too

    Don't buy NBA 2K, what a woeful game.

    For a fiver there's literally nothing wrong with it - Even if you get a weekend out of it it's fine.

    If anyone does get it and new to the series, switch the camera to 2K View. This turns it to a vertical camera, so much better to play than the horizontal default.

    I'd rather my fiver back. It's not fun.

    I see a lot of love for the 2K view, i do rather the horizontal camera reminds me of older basketball games like arch rivals and nba jam.

    However for a fiver i will defiantly pick up, haven't played since 2K18 and i enjoyed that a lot

    Might try this. Had a brief go of it last night and first impressions weren't good.

    Oh for the days of simplified solid fun gameplay. I think I'll stick to NBA jam :D

    Quite enjoying the NBA 2K career mode. Worth the fiver alone for me. Haven't played online or anything else so can't comment on that.

    Star Wars Battlefront Ultimate Edition getting a lot of heat over at HUKD. Don't know if it's any good but apparently the X-Wing PSVR mission is great.

    Its a purer version than the sequel which has lost some of the charm of the original in my mind. Spent countless hours on the original and was very much looking forward to the new one but other than enhanced graphics (which are very nice to be fair), it feels like a step back

    The xwing mission is good if you're a star wars fan, especially the intro where an AT-AT walks by you :D

    The AT-AT walking by was one of my first OMFG VR rox moments ;)

    Loving the career mode definitely worth a fiver. I probably won't play online but even if I get the weekend out of it I'll have got my moneys worth.

    Can you play it without VR?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,891 ✭✭✭✭mrcheez

    Yeah the main game is not VR. The X wing mission is a vr add on. Only vr for that.

    It's short but oh so sweet. IF EA had the cajones they could've supported development of a full VR X-wing game and without doubt it would've been a system seller.

    picked up NBA 2K20, i've spent more on disappointment so this won't be too bad. Only got to play the first game in MyCareer (the only mode I will be playing) so hard to tell yet, but I have noticed a lot more fumbling compared to the last game. Seems to be well gone beyond the simplicity of 'Give me ball and I score' that I enjoyed in 2K16 but haven't been able to enjoy since! Still say the simpler, earlier games were more fun, but it is quite nice to do a realistic dunk!

    Can see myself putting a good bit of time into it, as mentioned that the progression isn't as tied to VC anymore, so hopefully won't lose interest like 2K19.

    Just tested it, works. Hopefully it's not a free weekend, and free for good.

    Yeah looks like it as it's also free on Steam and Xbox too.

    Typically Switch gamers screwed again though... would have loved it on my Switch so I guess I'll need to make do with it on my PC and PS4 :pac:

    I think it's a trial or something now, when you go to PS Store on the console it didn't have add to cart or buy, it only had download so... hmm

    I only fired Hitman up on Friday last for the first time and it worked for me.

    (sorry delayed response to this)

    I reckon if you have PS Plus, Hitman 1 might still be free as it was a freebie with PS Plus before iirc.

    It shows a lock symbol on my copy though.

    Far Cry V is 11 yo yo delivered with Prime - out of stock but you can buy it from Amazon at that price and they’ll send it when it’s back in stock - cheapest I’ve ever seen it for PS4

    My thoughts exactly I played beat saber once at a Vr arcade and I really want to get it for that reason alone. Over 300 euro though its pretty dear, next gen just around the corner also.

    The PS5 will work with existing VR headsets ... just visuals will be improved, so I reckon you're good to go with getting PSVR now!


    btw that deal is funky, comes with full game too, and the box would be a keeper :D

    If you plan on getting PSVR, go for the mega pack as it's better value.

    Only game i fancy in that megapack is Resi 7 which I could get cheap enough. Still, need to justify 300 quid on something when I will be spending possibly 500 on the PS5 on launch.

    Yeah, can't see anywhere selling them off for €100 like what I got mine for last summer from Harvey Norman.

    I'm curious about the VR but isn't like about €300 for only a handful of very good games?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,542 ✭✭✭RocketRaccoon


    Astrobot makes the VR worth it on its own, honestly.

    I have it and have a great selection of top games. AstroBot, Moss, Blood and Truth, Beat Sabre, Creed, SuperHot, Wipeout (if you can tolerate it) Resi 7 just to name a few. And there's a great amount of cheap and short games too.

    Would highly recommend it.
