Anyone here play video games?

@EdH Wow, thanks so much for the suggestions and insights. We have played and enjoyed Astro’s Playroom, me more than the kids because they have a tendency to get frustrated with the more complicated moves/jumps/timing stuff. I’ve put all of these on my “wishlist” in the PlayStation store and will check them out. TMNT stuck out to me immediately because they’ve been watching the older show. Plus I like the idea we can all play together as a family. Overcooked looks like it would fit that bill as well. Really appreciate you taking the time to give some great recommendations.

@SKT mate, I might not play everything I’d like, but I’m pretty clued up on the gaming scene. Anytime.

The fam got me a Logitech G29 racing wheel and pedal setup for my PS5 racing that I'm super psyched to try out, but I need a seat/frame to mount it to. Anybody have experience with these?
-
@Matt They're nuts dude. be prepared to break shit. Nobody who's ever played VR hasn't knocked down a lamp or kicked a dog on accident.
-
@Matt we got one too! Only thing I’ve played so far is “Beat Saber”. Highly recommend. I bought the Green Day song pack and was literally sweating buckets after a few rounds. It’s so freaking fun. Let us know any cool games you find. My kids have played “Job Simulator” and seem to like it.
-
@Matt Yeah I love mine! I use it mostly for fitness-based stuff, Beat Saber as @SKT mentioned and Les Mills Body Combat are my go-tos to get a proper sweat on. Virtual ping-pong is quite addictive too, but like @WhiskeySandwich said, make sure to set up the boundary properly or you will break stuff - I've already accidentally smacked my 5 year old in the face playing bowling!
-
@SamD HAHAHA thats exactly what i'm talking about! boundary or not, if you're the only one who can see it, people will enter the Danger Zone....
-
@WhiskeySandwich I did try and warn him, so technically it was his own fault
-
@Matt Definitely get Beat Saber. That game is the shit on VR. And it can be a great workout, particularly if you get to the higher difficulty levels - over the lockdowns it was my main form of exercise and I got to the point where I was on the hardest difficulty, playing shit like this
and getting my heartrate to >170 according to my watch.
P.S. If you do get it, the best music packs to add on are the Rock pack and the Electronic mix pack.
-
@SKT Just for clarity, that's not me! I've been able to get a SS rank on that song, but don't think I've ever fully-cleared it.

It’s probably been mentioned on here before but I really like Dead Cells. It’s the one game I always come back to.
