Anyone had the chance to play this yet. Its currently 10% off on steam tempted to give it a go but not seen any reviews yet. Not on PC so cant check if its on OH or not.

Playing right now just taking a little break, I'm loving it, was worried it might make me nauseous but not a hint of feeling sick.
My first time setting up experimental 360 tracking with 2 sensors in either corner of room although you could get away with playing in regular mode this seems to suit more.
No problems even though brought on steam store it's all working perfectly, if you love or even liked the serious Sam games on regular screen this is a must.
Woulda been nice if they priced it around the £20 mark rather then £30 as there's a rather large element of paying for old rope.

Cheers bud, very tempted to get this, good to know its working fine with rift and touch. Trying to find a good deal on steam wallet codes but doesn't seem to be very cheap at the moment, typically I had a load of steam credit that I ended up selling a couple of weeks ago too.

Bit the bullet, got steam £50 steam wallet for about £45, steam crimbo sales coming up so im sure the rest will get put to good use soon.

Have to agree, I played about 20 minutes, but I found myself getting bored. I decided to get a refund as I dont think I would have played it much more, I have the VR mod for doom 3, and I was enjoying that more. Spent a small fortune on games that I will not play much so need to be a bit wiser with my purchases. I would have bought Arizona Sunshine while its on sale but will wait for steam since I have the credit sitting there now.

I think I'm really enjoying it as it's my first full locomotion fps and first time using 360 set up.
I'm going to have to get doom set up from the sounds of things.

This game is the best FPS for VR for me atm.
Purely due to it having full locomotion.

For oculus touch users they have now implemented stick rotation as well in the public beta.
Just opt in to the beta via steam, and enjoy 🙂

I think the lack of stick rotation was part of the reason I didnt enjoy it so much when I played it. I dont think the inclusion of stick rotation would be enough to make me buy it again but if it had it to begin with I might have stuck with it a bit longer.

I don't know if you've played the original flat version - but it's a quite lengthy campaign and the action really picks up the pace.. believe me!
