UPDATE: As it turns out Red Matter 1 is actually $19.99, not $24.99. And even better there's a $39.99 bundle that includes both games for a $10 savings!
What a steal! Vertical Robot does it again! Can't wait to see what they're working on next. By far one of my fav VR devs
What about if we already own it? Any cheaper upgrade ?
@@watkinsjames82 if you own the psvr1 version the upgrade is free
Excellent. I was hoping they'd do something like that.
Bryan thank you for working hard to get these reviews out to us. I trust your word on games and I love your intro theme music because it reminds me of better times (not sure why but I think of the past when I hear it.)
Downloading to console now! Played through RM2 twice so far. Such a unique VR experience. Glad to support Vertical Robot and hope they are working on their next project for PSVR2!
Hey could you tell me how bad is the Mura on psvr2?
@@denka4151 Not nearly as bad as PC fanboys try to claim.
Excellent work getting these reviews out so fast!
Vertical Robot - One of the most respected VR developers out there!
Bryan Paul - The most respected VR reviewer out there!
Great work as always 👏
A comment that is not upvoted enough.
2 reviews in a day? Bryan thank you so much for your work ♥️
Bryan works hard and plays hard
Thanks for the awesome review. I have only played the 2nd game and absolutely loved it, so I'm looking forward to exploring this game over the weekend. Looks and sounds amazing 👍
Excellent review(s)! Looking forward to binging RM1&2 for the first time ever!
Awesome. I just bought Red Matter 1.
I missed out on Red Matter on PSVR 1 and thus have been holding out on playing Red Matter 2, till I get to play the first one.
Nice to hear, that the conversion holds up nicely!
Great review Bryan. I'm one of the lucky ones that is pretty much playing this for the first time. I played it for about 30 minutes on PSVR and then PSVR2 came out and my PSVR got packed away. I played tonight for about 90 minutes and I'm looking forward to finishing it this weekend.
Loved it the first time, really looking forward to exploring it all over again.
Wow, you are on fire today Bryan 🔥
Looking forward to revisit this game!
Already beat Red Matter 2 & cannot wait to jump into this one!
I played the PS4 version back in July because I wanted to play the sequel and was uncertain if I should wait for the possible remaster, as it wasn't 100% confirmed at the time. Looks like I should have waited, but either way, I'll be excited to jump back into this again at a much higher fidelity. Nice review!
I really like your reviews. Enthusiastic, always fair, detailed, straight to the point. If a game is great but something sucks you state it clearly without too many words.
Now I know this is a vr channel, but if you'd start to review flat games I would gladly watch your take on those as well. Just saying.
I love how the player's tools look like the controllers. Really enjoyed RM2 so I'll check this out sometime.
Super excited to finally try out this series. Been holding off on 2 for port of the 1st one
It was so freaking awesome. Short and sweet. I streamed it all on my you tube channel.
I already bought Red Matter 2 but haven't had the chance to play it yet. Had no idea Red Matter 1 was coming so I'm in luck! Will purchase and play this one before diving into RM2
Love your reviews!
Thanks for the review Bryan 😊. And hello to all gamecats. I will get Red Matter at some point in the future but right now I have so many VR and flatscreen games to play that I am trying to avoid getting new games, which of course will be impossible as Spider-Man 2 launches later this month.
Great review. I was certainly interested by rm2. Now this out I'll go for this first since I nene played it before, 😊
Are there any logical circuit type puzzles like in RM2 or are they all escape think outside the box type puzzles? I enjoyed the circuit puzzles alot more
There are some circuit type puzzles in RM1 for sure. The only real difference between the two is no gun play in 1. I kind of like 1 better as it leaves you alone most of the game making the atmosphere darker than RM2 where you had someone talking in your ear the whole game.
Cannot believe its 5 years ago since the psvr1 review..
Stunning game on the psvr1 ..
What matters most? Red Matter :) and 19,99 is a super fair price. Top Quality VR-Gaming and you dont have to fold your hands every night the devs might patch their game somewhere in the future. Simply runs and looks awesome!...and you can find photos of polish paul (portrays stas, i am damn sure it must be him) in the lockers.
Only £15.99 in the UK. I absolutely loved red matter 2, best vr experience I’ve had, so I’m so happy they’ve remastered this version because I missed out last time
Was it good? Do you need to play first game first?
@@grahamkelly8662 yes it’s fantastic, still my favourite psvr2 game, alongside resident evil 4 remake.
Now red matter 1 is out I’d play that first for the story but red matter 2 is a better game, and the story still made sense. You’d have no issues playing 2 first
@@millenwagon ah nice. Although puzzle games intimate me. Are the puzzles hard for idiots like me? I hate being in an area and not have a clue what to do. I think I will start will red matter 2 first, even though it’s more expensive then 1 but it’s on sale right now. Red matter 1 is about £15.99 and red matter 2 is about £16.50 around £9 off. Have you played moss and moss book 2? If so, do you recommend? They £19.50 for both. Kinda reminds me of that platform game Trine? Although I absolutely sucked at that game and gave up early. There’s about 4 editions and I keep meaning to try them all and get better. I think I bought and tried trine 3. Loved that art style setting , 3 characters etc but I sucked at the puzzles .😭
@@grahamkelly8662 never played moss but I do want to buy them at some point. I did get stuck a couple of times on red matter 2, but I just found a video here on TH-cam to help
I'm amazed at how many "Top 10" lists of PSVR2 games online don't include Red Matter 2. Phenomenal atmosphere, visuals, puzzles, etc.. I've never found myself exclaiming about the textures of surfaces, lighting, or other "little" details as much as I have this game. My friend even says it's the closest thing to Half-Life: Alyx that he's seen; that's one heckuva compliment for a totle that seems to be slipping beneath most people's radar.
#4 in Without Paroles top 25.
@@roadiethegamecat4124 Just to clarify, I wasn't counting this channel, just articles I've seen around the net.
I loved it on PSVR! I'll play it on PSVR2 as soon as I can :)
red matter 1 for me, is not installing its trophy list, giving my whole machine a sync error! is anyone else having this error?
I've neglected my PSVR2 for a few weeks now, would you guys recommend this or No Mans Sky to get back on the VR train
What an amazing review of Firewall Ultra, best one yet guys
Your theme tune here always sounds like The Heat is On to me lol
Is that intentional?
Yeah, this is another treat for me as I just didn't get around to playing more than half an hour of Red Matter. w00t! And this is before getting into RM2 (which I haven't gotten yet).
In a world where I'm drowning in backlog, I'm definitely putting '3-5 hours' in the + column :D
I wish they would release a demo, I just want to see what 4K 120 is like in the headset.
For that reason I bought Red Matter 2 even though I'm not a puzzle fan apart from The Room games
I played it back in the day and it was probably like a 7/10 for me but as a free upgrade I'm eager to play it again with the sweet graphical upgrade
How much does RM1's story add to RM2?
I played it on PS4/PSVR. To call it an escape room does it a disservice. It's the best thing I've played some Obduction
I just came here to reply to that idiotic rant at Bryan that someone just posted. Being a game reviewer on TH-cam may be an unconventional job, which some people may not understand or perhaps like...but to say the work Bryan does isn't 'beneficial' to anyone has clearly missed that the channel is at almost 100k subscribers. It also fundamentally misses the point of the importance of entertainment to people across the world. Applying the same ridiculous logic would mean that all film, TV and music reviewers and journalists, and infact anyone else producing any type of entertainment on a screen are not doing 'proper jobs' 🙄
This channel is a constant source of entertainment and information for thousands of fans of a fledgling, but (let's not forget) fast-growing corner of the games world. It is a place where you can meet like-minded VR gamers, chat to friends or just sit back, don't say a goddam word, and enjoy sharing a love for the most wonderful experience that is VR.
If people don't like that, rather than blindly ranting at someone they have never met, perhaps they should go do something else with their time.
There is simply no need to be angry or unkind to our gamecat leader.
Anyway, thank you for the review, Bryan. Two 9s in a day! Bosh!! #gamecat
How are you so damn fast, do you live in the future? It just released 3 minutes ago on the Sony store
I wish Red Matter 2 had more fighting and harder puzzles, it'd be so amazing!
I've never played Red Matter 2 because of that, but imagine those visuals on actual faster more action based games! This game showed us the potential of the PSVR2
After your review of Red Matter 1 I've decided to give 2 a try, at least it has some fighting
There’s quite a lot of combat in Red Matter 2 though. I recommend it as an action fan.
@@delgat000 Awesome thank you, because I bought it looking forward to it! Bought Hubris before and was disappointed with graphics
@@Sincerity1993 Sweet! Hope you’re liking it. 👍 both RM1 and 2 definitely blow Hubris’s graphics out of the water, Thats for sure.
@@delgat000 Agree, just RM1 is boring (for me) without fighting
i never played it on PSVR and I loved RM2 on PSVR2 so I'm really looking forward to this.
great review. great channel.
Can Playstation buy them and pay them to make AAA VR2 games?
how does the escape room puzzles compare to The Room VR: A Dark Matter?
They are better integrated in Red Matter. My favorite thing about the game is it never felt like you were "solving puzzles", more like just figuring out how to get through the station and discover its secrets.
Wow you sounded so much younger when you reviewed it on the psvr1. This is a free upgrade right?
Omg as I'm reading your comment his young voice comes in. LMAO. Like a little kid.
Oh yeah it's free upgrade.
2018 Bryan: 👶
2023 Bryan: 🗿
I've not played either Red Matter game yet. So I guess now is the best time to jump in?
Wow RM1 now on PSVR2? Time to dust the set off and get into it again.
I literally can’t play because my left controller doesn’t work, specially where you have to scan the sign
I must admit , while I loved Red Matter 2 for all its technical achievements and how stunning it looked, I missed the puzzle element and mystery of the first one, looking forward to revisiting the game
Just wondering if the psvr 2 upgrade is free for disc owners
Right now we don't know for sure. We have a Discord member with the physical and he's unable to upgrade ATM.
What a game! I loved it
I'm still fairly new to VR.
I have only played Red Matter 2, so I'm disappointed there isn't any action in this one.
I never played Red Matter 1. Halfway through Red Matter 2 - which I love.
Great job re-reviewing this "wonderful precursor" to what we all hope comes next.......
Red Matter 1 is awesome, one of my favourite games of PSVR1. If you have the remotest interest in an adventure game in VR then you owe it to yourself to check it out.
Two 9.0 games! What a great day
SOLD !!
Nice!!
First 2nd part then the first part ? Its confusing ... i played the 2nd part and i love it! REally great!
Your reviews are definitely not worse. Overall I think your presentation is way better and that goes a long way.
So should I play 1 before 2 or are they stand-alone?
Play 1 before 2. The story is connected, but like I said in this review, RM2 adds a lot of gameplay mechanics (primarily shooting and stealth) that RM1 didn't have.
@@WithoutParole thanks!
Look, be honest. 'Red Matter 1' didn't look anything like what's shown here on the PSVR1 - the screen door effect was horrendous on the PSVR1. I would rather see a true representation of the difference between 'Red Matter 2' on the PSVR2 vs The Meta Quest 3 as I played 'Red Matter 2' on the meta Quest 2 and liked it a lot, but I don't know which is better to get now, the PSVR2 or the Meta Quest 3 ...
Vertical Robot is some next level C++ wizardry!!! Skydance come in close 2nd! Take notes Hellsweeper and Greenhell devs!
Такие родные красные звёзды, милый и Великий СССР - скучаю по тебе🥲
Is this and red matter 2 scary? Are there jump scares?
A bit spooky at times
Red Matter 1 is definitely creepy at times but not scary. No jump scares. And Red Matter 2 isn't even creepy, nevermind scary
Nice price.
3 hours?
Puzzle game......I think I'll give it a wide berth. Not sure.
Young Brian sounds like he has no idea a worldwide pandemic is about to fudge everything up
None of us did
❤❤❤
@WithouParole Or anyone else here, can you see this comment I am writing? I have a feeling my comments dont show up on PSVR2 Without Paroles videos, for other people other than myself.
I can see your comment just fine 👍🏾
@SkemeKOS yup, your comment is showing up just fine! :D
I'm so dumb. The first time I played this it took me months to get to the rock statue puzzle and get stuck on it. Then yesterday I replay it and beat the game like in 3 hrs. Lol. Wtf
nice
Really strange how the footage of the original PSVR1 version here looks silky smooth 60fps but the new footage looks like 30fps 🫤
Psvr2 social screen is 30 fps.
It’s just the social screen
#gamecat #game cat
It's kinda russian 😅 strelka means "arrow".
I tried the second Red Matter on PSVR 2, looked great, just boring.
Dang, I’m super early…
Red Matter in my ps5 shop is still telling me it's not available lol wtf
So let me get this straight Bryan, what you’re saying is that this is a $19.99 game that is worth $24.99?! Is this a first for the channel? A game worth more than the advertised priced😳 HA! Suck it Quest 3😤
He just confused the price, chill lol
@@Sincerity1993 lol, I was always wondering if he ever felt a title deserved more than the asking price, this was my moment😌
I am around halfway through Red Matter 2 and have to say, it's seriously one of the more boring games I can remember persisting with. Not sure quite why it seems so highly rated, outside of the admittedly high res but slightly desaturated visuals on PSVR2
Then avoid RM1, it's the same slow burn puzzle type game.
@@roadiethegamecat4124I mean, it's....okI guess? I see so much love for it I feel like I'm missing something though
It's beautiful but really disappointed about how short it is also the puzzles are super easy. It's a must have in psvr2 if you pay under 15 bucks
Too bad this didn't come out before part 2. I don't know if I want to go and play a more limited version even though I enjoyed that one.
