I wish the new dead island had a VR mode
That’d be sick, honestly 🔥
That would turn a game that I am mildly interested in into a game that I would preorder the digital deluxe edition for. I am not sure why Capcom is one of the few companies that get it.....if people like your game in 2d, they will love it in VR
i said same to my brother 2 days ago... with the FLESH system
i’m not even interested in DI2 but this would make me buy it immediately
Didn't enjoy saints n sinners psvr. So a hard pass for me.
The resolution in this game is incredible. It's nice to know what seemed like an inherent sharpness issue on the PSVR2 is a software issue in other games, not a hardware one
I've been saying this for the last 2weeks and I don't even own the headset.
No Man’s Sky looks terrible. Still fun to play but really bummed about that. I hope they fix it.
@@chrisjdgrady yeah I’ve had no issues with games on my psvr 2 other than no man’s sky. The hands and close objects look amazing! Just the distant stuff is sooo bad 😂
@@lewispooper3138 Galaxy's Edge is a pretty mixed bag for me too. Sometimes it looks great, sometimes it looks a bit fuzzy.
Is nms taking advantage of eye tracking?
Congrats on another stellar review. S&S is one of the best examples of why I love VR. There is not one flat zombie game, and I have played a shit ton, that can compare to the immersion of killing a zombie as you do in S&S. So for me, hearing we get a game that is comparable with to S&S 1, in retribution, with the added benefit that psvr2 gives, I couldn’t be happier.
I don't even like zombie games at all, I have VR mainly for sim racing, but still S&S is my top 2 VR game after Alyx...
@@viktorianas try boneworks
Retribution is a flat zombie game that sucks but ok
Glad to hear they worked out all the Quest 2 Bugs. Chapters 1+2 Should be a contender for a second PSVR 2 bundle.
It is being bundled lol
@@rikweeds2306 i got saints and sinners in 2021 when it was free knowing id get a PSVR2. Its another edition not the tourist edition i guess. Today was an update but when i went to play it....says plug in PSVR1 not two and the Bundle is gone from PS2 but was on there a few months ago. Odd. Maybe i will try again later but MAN I wanna play BOTH
@@redmist78 yea absolutely, today is release date and on the ps store its still
Not available…
@@rikweeds2306 you mean with the headset?
@@loopertheundergroundgamecat ohh no i thought meaning chapter 1+2 of the game bundled
Great review Bryan! Very well rounded and great details! Can't wait to play this title tomorrow.
Out of all the game reviewers out of all the platforms out there, you are my favorite. I love your reviews. They get to the point, they are the right length, your criticisms are valid and I find myself agreeing with you just about all the time, and I always check this channel before I make a purchase. Keep up the great work!
I'm proud to say I've been a sub of this channel when Bryan was at like around 10K subs. .I can not begin to say how proud we are of your continued growth in viewers as of late!! But also with recent appearances again on Last Stand. You're finally getting the recognition you deserve for your hardworking and informative professionalism 👏 Once again, another great review! Top marks good sir👍 This channel for VR reviews and ACG for reg games are the only review channels I honestly rely on. IGN who?? 😮 . .😊
100K subs inbound 🎉
The graphics are so good on this, you weren't kidding. It's the best-looking game I've seen on PSVR2 so far in terms of sheer crispness/fidelity ratio (Horizon was higher fidelity but nowhere near this crispness). It's all the more impressive considering it runs at native 90 FPS. I played Chapter 1 on a PC with 2080 Super, and it looked okay, but I'm pretty sure this is even better. I find myself just ogling at the visuals and the sheer detail on display.
Also the Oled display specially at nighttime
I never finished the first one, but i'm determined to do so on PSVR 2. I just grabbed the Tourist expansion so i can resume my playthrough. Great to hear that this game is just as good if not better! Eventually i will play it someday, cool review Bryan!
Yo did it work for u for the first 1 cuz it doesent let me download it
Same here. I didn't finish the 1st one. I'm looking forward to moving forward with the first one on PSVR2 and then moving on to part two.
@@MoocleTheMonkey Yo, it isn't available for purchase in my region(Netherlands) just yet, but it should be out today. I'll keep you informed.
I just bought the Deluxe 1+2 to support the devs. If the game is ¾ as good as reviews say, they deserve it.
"VR AF" - that's my new favorite term. :)
I'm playing this after work tonight. Looking forward to it.
Dang, exactly what I was hoping, thank you Brian. Still waiting for the 1st one to allow a download. Wanna play through it again with these new controls and sharpness and HDR, oh man. The first S&S game was the best new gaming tech 'wow' experience for me since like playing Mario 64 back in the day seeing properly done 3d the first time but in this case the only missing pieces were hardware dependent. Those awesome controls always felt like "what if in some utopian, distant future we could have this game but not send the controller design to the Sony chimpanzee division. It'll never happen but I can dream!" (on psvr anyway)
Dark/Night time environments on PSVR2 look almost exactly like real life to me. I used my QuestPro to play the new Walkabout mini golf course the other day and omg, the reduced FOV made it feel like my IPD was several inches too narrow and just didn’t feel right. 110+ degrees should be the minimum going forward, and all future VR headsets should do OLED or micro OLED panels. I’m never buying another LCD paneled headset again.
Moves me a giant step closer to copping a PSVR 2. If Firewall is incredible, it may be hard to resist.
Pavlov is a must if you like MP experience as well. The TTT mode is hilarious and hands down the best MP experience on PSVR 2 currently.
It's basically Among Us for adults.
I was the same way but just ordered my PSVR2 today…making payments on it using Affirm donuts affordable
Thanks for another great review, Bryan!
I’m looking forward to picking this one up in the future, but I never finished Chapter 1 on PSVR1 so I’m going to play through it on VR2 before grabbing the sequel.
I've played the intro and am already in shock. I absolutely loved chapter one despite the move controllers. Chapter two has the potential to be another must-play VR experience
Looks awesome! Man I loved the first one but all I could ever think of when playing it was how bad we needed a proper controller to play it. The joysticks must feel so much better than the original move controls! Nice review as always Bryan! Hope you’re doing well bro!
I just started the first S&S on PCVR for the first time now, and wow.... what a game! Honestly I feel like these sort of VR mechanics and combat would make any 1st person game ever made 10x better if they were implemented! I finally understand why this is so many people's favorite VR game.
The biggest minus of the game, I feel, is the relatively small size of the areas you visit. I think this is a limitation of having to make the game playable for the Quest 2 version. Not a huge deal, but probably something that will affect many VR games going forward - the Quest userbase is too big to ignore for most third party VR devs, after all.
yeah the levels felt really videogame levely, like something you'd find in a game from the 90's.
these maps look a lot better though, a lot more natural.
I preordered the chapter 1 and 2 deluxe edition. I can't wait to try it 😈😈
I played this tonight and honestly, it blew my mind!
I've been impressed by the PSVR2, but Saints and Sinnersr 2 has blown me away.
Graphics in detail, the realness is quite unbelievable for me.
Perhaps should've been PSVR2's flagship game
Have you played the first one on PSVR2 to see if the graphics/visuals match Chapter 2? I’m kinda glad I haven’t played it yet, seems like Chapter 2 is more of an expansion.
You got them another purchase day 1 (in canada) tomorrow morning. Will be playing all day long
I really like your reviews
when i threw it on tonight i’m actually blown away how amazing it looks compared to the quest version of the first chapter, it’s not a knock against the quest im just actually so impressed lol i’m glad i waited to get my psvr2 to play chapter 2 💯
Same here. Refused to play this on the quest 2. This is the game I have been waiting for. First one is one of the best experiences I have ever had playing video games!
I know i am unstoppable when I am duel wielding a couple spoons
My man said "VRAF".
There was an attempt. Great review.
Still saying it lol
Hope the first one got as much love as this did.
Finally got a PS5 & PSVR2 today. Will be starting Chapter 2 Reribution tonight 😀 Buzzzzziiinnnggg !!!!! Best game EVER!
And then it turned out to be the worst vr game ever lol
lol that last positive "theres a chainsaw"
😁
Just looking forward to using the Sense controllers on the first game as trying to use the Move controllers sucked absolute ass tothe point I didnt pursue with it.
The work well in this game
Switchback VR devs watching in amazement
Just got done getting Platinum on S&S1, on a second playthrough, so continued that new save into Ch2. In fact I had started Ch2 with my first save, then dropped it to go back and get the Plat in Ch1. WOW, did they turn up the dangerous factor on this game! Love it so far. Again, another great Review, Bryan!
Great review.
I don't understand other reviewers who overly complain when a sequal is similar to the original. Especially when it was great game.
The same people would cry fowl if it tried to do something that strayed too far from the first. Some people will always find a reason to complain. I prefer my sequels to be iterative and not try to reinvent the wheel but I always respect a dev that tries something different with their sequel.
great review. great editing, great everything, cheers Bryan.
People are saying that this PSVR2 version even outperform the high end PC version. I can’t wait to play it tomorrow but I still like to see a Resident Evil review from you 😉
I just purchased the game. Thanks for the awesome review.
“maintaining a silly health and stamina meter” YES YOU NAILED IT THANK YOU!!! lol
So amped for this. Sadly, I think they've delisted the bundle option for $60 with both chapter 1 & 2. Was looking forward to getting it as I've never played either. Also, it will be my first proper VR experience.
I just bought the bundle version now for 60
Thanks for the great review. I have the first one downloaded and ready to play on PSVR2. Hopefully this time I will play more than an hour of the game. If I do I am going to get Chapter 2 for sure.
9.3! Shocking 😮. That games a 9.2 if ever i saw one 😅
Great review as always. Any idea if chapter 2 is also coming to PSVR1 ?
Yup we just talked about that on Gamescast tonight - the devs are saying it’s still coming. No release date though
Psvr version released on 14/12 in ps store fyi
The difference in this compared to the quest version is mind boggling , great review as always nothing but honest facts there
Nice. For now I think I'll be replaying S&S and waiting for a sale on this one. I played through the original just once anyway.
I just picked this up downloading now can’t wait to hop in I missed out on the psvr version of chapter 1 only played the quest 2 version so I’m sure I’m in for a treat lol
Looks very similar to the first game. Which is a good thing, considering the first game is still one of the best VR game out there.
@@lewispooper3138 Saints and Sinners was already a multiplatform game that could be experienced with different controllers.
PS moves were pretty bad for most games, that's just a fact of life.
Fantastic review, as per usual!
See you on the other side bois!
Can't wait to play with this. Glad I never really got too far in Ch. 1 ... now I can do it all on PSVR2. Not sure if it's worth the $40 with the whole "DLC feel," might wait a little for that one.
Just played the first hour of this and omg its absolutely amazing!! This might be the #1 game on psvr 2 right know
Have you tried the psvr1 upgrade on psvr2 and how does it compare? Great work on your videos they are always worth watching.
I guess I’ll get about 28 hours gameplay then because I’m starting chapter 1 all over(only had about 2 hours in) I thought the gameplay was great but got caught up in other things and couldn’t play it.I’m still a bit handicap from my bike wreck but this arm movement could be therapy.I get a little anxious is games like this though.I don’t like things creeping up from behind.But since cameras are in front I should be safe.
Finally, the cream of the crop is out! Lots of hours to sink into this one and the previous!
Great review Bryan ✋😁😁
Love the final scene....
Since I got Saints 1 as a free PS+ game I decided to throw the devs a bone and buy the full 1+2 bundle. Glad my money was well spent 😄
Can't wait for behemoth.
Waiting for my physical copy to show up, so Godamn excited
I thought thats out april?
@@jamespaul6315 yeah how long I’m waiting basically still hyped for it
@@TKbeatwerkWhen is the physical version out?
@@BillyB-1996 some time this year, not sure at the moment
I need to revisit the first S&S game. I have always struggled with the difficulty with my character frequently dying. So much so I may have to restart the game as I think I must have made some bad choices earlier in the game whereby I am now paying the price for this.
Does anyone know how to upgrade chapter one tho? I’ve looked everywhere and I can’t find it on the store or any guides online so any help would be appreciated
Was thinking the same thing. What I think is, you have to purchase PT2 first, and it auto updates to the ps5.
Nah they screwed the pooch on this one. Only available if you bought the double pack at the moment. Those of us that bought the tourist edition of the first game are locked out and have no access to chapter 1 at the moment.
@@TAZMANICO4GOVNOR yeah maybe it might get released later today it might not have been a midnight drop like chapter 2 but if you find anything out please let me know
@@c_low_da_wrk9121 yeah I was wondering if anyone who booted up chapter 2 just got the upgrade or part one was on the same game as a bonus feature or something
Just an update that I’ve just managed to get the first chapter upgrade so I think it’s available now
What about ch 1 review on PSVR2? I need to know whether to even bother with that version or not. Never finished it on PSVR1.
I haven’t played it yet. Stay tuned!
Another great review Bryan. Can't wait to dive into this and have some fun killing zombies
My only question is how do you feel about the updated psvr2 version of chapter 1 over it's original psvr1 counterpart? Graphics, control feel, etc
I think I read somewhere than the first games locations are reused but tweaked. Like certain paths were changed or exits were blocked off.
If they remake the og telltale TWD in VR I would lose my mind
Can't even buy it says not out yet 7am 21st March
Cannot find nothing online or youtube by this issue
I'm really looking forward to this one. I'm holding out for the physical version, whenever it releases. I guess I was wise to get the Tourist Edition of Chapter 1 for cheap 7 months back to just try it out, hoping I'd be able to get the PSVR2 version for free. Guess my gambit paid off. I can enjoy that in the meantime. Another great review, Bryan! Really happy this channel exists.
I think its end of April for physical im waiting too
Still waiting...
@@BillyB-1996 Yeah... Total BS. Modern devs seem to loathe the physical collector fanbase. 😒
It’s pretty great so far. Think I’m going to replay the first one for the full impact
I can’t wait to get home from work and play this it’s gonna be amazing!!! From what I hear and from my experience I think these developers need to stick with 90fps output instead of a reprojected 120fps and whatever other tricks they use because from what I’ve experienced and heard it makes the game look bad and makes people really sick I’ve finally gotten over my psvr2 sickness but whenever I get into a game that is a normal 90fps it always feels and looks better than the reprojected games like this game for example but anyway can’t to get home thanks as always Bryan!!!🎉
same here :)
5:15 You could tell he was happy saying this
Awesome review as always 😊
I can't get over how clear and smooth this game is..absolutely fuckin gorgeous
Awesome review 👏🏾
THIS IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST GAME ON THE PSVR2 YET! wow Just mind blown by how crisp it looks! ❤❤❤❤
Ah yes because graphics are the only thing that matters, forget that the story is bad and the gameplay while sometimes fun, very repetitive.
This may just be the game that justifies a psvr2 purchase! cant wait! the first one was phenomenal!
I bought S&S's 1 but those danged Move controls, when it it came to movement, I just could not traverse the environment and defend myself successfully.
I played it once and that was it, but that wasn't because the game was bad.
I just struggled so hard to balance to two.
I paid full price for the Chapter One and am ready to do so for Two, but my pennies are beyond pinched.
Sometimes a game sequel doesn’t need to push the envelope. Sometimes, more of the same is exactly what you want.
One question, how long does a chainsaw last in terms of durability? Does the blade break or does it just need to be refuelled? That’s the part I’m most curious about.
So I've never played this series at all. Am I correct in thinking that this is essentially both games in one then?
he's a cheap trick i hope they haven't fixed for Chapter 2. use a frying pan as a handheld weapon. Never breaks and it easy to bash zombies heads in plus you can sometimes block bullets fired from human enemies as well!
Great review as always
Why Is the 1 & 2 bundle taken down? Never played this and want to start with the first game..
Great review!
God this looks so good
Well, i has preordered the Deluxe Bundle for 60€. Never played the Game so i start with Chapter 1. And Wow….awesome! So much Fun, great Atmosphere (yeah, its the Comic Look) and its looks clean on my PSVR2. Tbh, i would prefer a cinematic „realistic“ looking Game over the Comic Look, but it works very good here and fits well.
Now PSVR2 is starting for me 😎 I really dont like Horizon COTM and Resident Evil Games so the Launch was not so good for me.
But now i have these two Chapters and i will sink into them as far as possible.
Cant wait to see their next Game Behemoth 👌👍😎
Thanks for the reviews, very helpful
Wasnt this supposed to be out today?
Maybe submissive game could go for work experience with these devs and learn how to get the most out of a system.
But why does it changed to Wishlist now and I can't buy it anymore and the 1+2 Deluxe Edition is complete removed from the store
Out of all the games available, this one is more my speed. Gt7 isn't my thing and re8 is too scary. I'm gonna need a charging station lol
From the social screen streaming you posted, it looks like they didn't use foveated rendering (no low res side views) and still they manged to achieve such quality graphics? Supermassive, take a note! And, as always, great review (but shouldn't you be resting?!).
Combine the amazing physics and mechanics of this game with the story and terror of re 8 and you would ha e the perfect vr horror game
Also wonder why I didn't have any issues with draw distances and Mura with this title I really feel like psvr2 is going to be game changing developers just haven't taken full advantage of the ps5 yet
"we bike" - Anderson Silva
Had they called this anything but chapter 2 there would be an uprising of rabbid angry fans complaining it's a copy of the first game. I am glad they named it appropriately so that it gets a great reception.
Don't know what's going on in the UK. First, the bundle wasn't available, and now the 2nd game still isn't available to buy and has been removed from the PSVR2 page in the store 🤷♂
Reminds me I want to see tlou2. I can imagine pulling out your back pak for crafting and there's nothing on there that ain't vr friendly. From melee to gunplay. Tbh though there is a big enough zombie library there already. I might be keen on some green hell
Currently 60% off on thr store. Not finished the first one yet but might pick this up now while its on sale
Nice. Sadly it isn´t available anymore on the store.
One of the things that stopped me from enjoying the first chapter on PSVR1 was the lack of a visually clear day/night cycle. The sky/lighting always looked overcast and the watch beeps didn't really do a good enough job of communicating to me when to get the fuck out. It's visual feedback that I find absolutely necessary for this kind of game. I tried to play the game three separate times and found this to be too glaring of an issue every attempt. Hope the upgrade fixes that so it's up to that level of polish that it should be.
Remember to grab the heads then hit with the op gloves, only takes one hit and gloves last at least 20 or so zombies.
My main question is, Can I still get on the cars and beat them to death with a frying pan? Best part of the entire game by far for me as I'm a wuss.
I liked the first game more but chapter 2 is still an incredible 10/10 game. I only have one very minor complaint. I didn’t like the dialogue options you could choose. In the first game I felt like all the dialogue options showed a different possible personality for the tourist that you could choose. In the 2nd game, it felt like the dialogue options were all conveying the same personality but just saying different things.
It's pretty horrendous but ok
One thing i always hated about S&S part one playing on my quest 2 was the constantly respawning walkers. Not the ones that reappear each day, I'm talking about the ones you kill, turn your back briefly and another has just spawned in to replace it, forcing you to stop what you were doing to kill it or run if you couldnt. I wouldnt have minded so much, but the respawned ones would NEVER have loot on them :(
Walkers shouldnt just appear like magic, really spoilt the immersion for me. Did they ever fix it?
On Quest? No. That was a memory issue, which is why you didn't see that on PSVR1 or PCVR. So it's still an issue on Quest but still not an issue anywhere else
Ty! bro
postponed to the 22nd 😂
