Top 5 Game Series We’d LOVE in VR

Top 5 Game Series We’d LOVE in VR

The PlayStation 4 VR madness has officially arrived and according to early reviews, it’s a smash hit. Not only does the PS4 fit the bill in terms of delivering a more cost-effective VR experience, but it also comes at a fraction of the cost of its competitors. The intense hype around PlayStation’s new gadget got us thinking about the top five franchises that would be awesome in VR. Let’s take a look.

Assassin’s Creed

Assassin’s Creed

This is certainly one franchise that needs to make its way to the VR scene. Thankfully, Ubisoft has already announced a VR title based on the upcoming Assassin’s Creed movie in December. I, for one, just might purchase the PS4 VR simply to become one of history’s most intriguing legends. Just imagine a 200’ first-person swan dive – It doesn’t get much better than that.

Just About Any EA Sports Game

Just About Any EA Sports Game

I really wanted to highlight NHL 17 here because it’s been and hopefully always will be one of my favorite games of all time. However, I thought about what FIFA or Madden might look like in first-person and I was instantly on board. I can’t even imagine what it would look like to stand under center and be able to see a sea of 70,000 fans cheering your name. I also couldn’t fathom what checking Patrick Kane would feel like in NHL . Ah, a sports fanatic can certainly dream.

Call of Duty (WWII Edition)

Call of Duty (WWII Edition)

The original Call of Duty was the game that sent me over the top in terms of first-person shooters. I’d love to see the franchise featured in VR but my one stipulation is that it needs to encompass WWII. Nothing would be better than to grab hold of the famous M1 Garand and squeeze off a few shots at the enemy.

Grand Theft Auto

Grand Theft Auto

I don’t even know where to begin with this one. Just about any GTA game featured in VR is going to be both totally epic and extremely terrifying. The GTA concept in itself it a little messed up. Think about it, going on a rampage and shooting just about everything in sight – no wonder our world is such a wreck. Anyway, jumping into some GTA first-person action should be pretty cool, even if it’s wrong on so many levels.

Forza/Need for Speed

Forza/Need for Speed

Ok, so I couldn’t decide on which racing series I’d rather see on the VR so I deiced on both. Either way you go, jumping into the driver seat of some of the world’s most powerful cars can’t possibly be anything short of amazing. Sure, playing either game now it’s pretty intense, but what might it look like as you grip the wheel and stare down your opponent as your mercilessly drift right past him on the last turn? Magic, folks, pure magic.
