From LauncherWP | Review: PlayStation VR2 is exciting, exhausting and a new standard for VR
may not see release on PlayStation’s platform, where it could reach the potentially massive PlayStation audience. It’s also too bad that games on PlayStation’s first VR headset won’t work on the new one. It would’ve taken a considerable investment of resources, money and time to make that a reality, but it’s still disappointing to leave behind PS VR gems like “Astro Bot Rescue Mission” — one of the best platforming games ever made in the medium, not just in virtual reality.
“Call of the Mountain” immediately envelops you into its world. It begins with a boat ride that feels like a VR version of a Disney ride. You can use your hands to splash the water around your vessel, and also move hanging vines out of the way. The sun shines and gleams off the metal of a collosal brontosaurus-like robot that vibrates the headset as it steps over you.
As good as PS VR2 is for a VR headset, it’s still bound by the limitations of its medium. It is always going to be more tiring to climb a mountain by pawing the air mimicking the movement in your living room than it is to simply hold a joystick up.
