Beat Saber


Beat Saber is one of the most talked about VR games on the market right now.

"Beat Saber is a VR rhythm game, where your goal is to slash the beats which fit perfectly into precisely handcrafted music."

Players are given lightlaser swords among each for slicing rhythmatic music chops. This game is one of the most interest and addictive games that we would recommend trying.  

The game features POP/STARS, the number 1 Billboard worldwide hit from League of Legends supergroud K/DA. 

Every beat requires a unique saber to use, and the direction you need to match. All the music is perfectly composed to match the hand movements. 

The goal of the game is to make players almost seem like they are dancing, while slicing the VR cubes and avoiding obstacles. 

You get a rush from each slice, as the cut is supported by a strong rhythmatic sound and visual effect to enhance the experience. 

Price: $19.99

No conveniently placed ammo drops. It's just you, outnumbered and outgunned, grabbing weapons off fallen enemies to shoot, slice, and maneuver through a hurricane of slow-motion bullets.

It was supposed to be a simple job.  Test an experimental folding drive to travel beyond the fringes of explored space. Return safely for a big payout, and retire on small colony to never be heard from again. Things don’t always work out as planned. On the return trip, something followed you back.  Something ancient. Now it’s a race to make it back to Earth before the ancient alien threat wipes out everything in its way - including you.

To make matters worse, it won’t be an easy journey back to Earth.  There's danger at every jump on this side of the galaxy. Ruthless pirates, lethal robots, and deadly aliens all stand in your way. You and your friends will tour the sector, upgrading your ship, stockpiling weapons, and fighting for your lives.

Lone Echo


Jack and Liv are back in Lone Echo II. Return to the rings of Saturn in this highly-anticipated sequel, to unravel the mysteries of Lone Echo and journey deeper into space – past the very boundaries of time itself.

The last stop before the system’s edge, the Ring Worlds are the new frontier in Solar colonization. Here you’ll find a host of terraforming colonies on Titan, Enceladus, and Dione, along with the greatest energy resource beyond the asteroid belt – the Rings of Saturn.

Nestled among the rings themselves, the Kronos Mining installations drill for the valuable helium-3 locked away within the ice. On Kronos II, Captain Olivia Rhodes is about to make history by handing her operation over to her second-in-command: Jack, a fully adaptive, Echo Unit android.

But space doesn’t always cooperate. And a mission’s not over until your boots are back on solid ground.
