I landed on the waiting list like many of you, but that's okay, it gives me more time to read feedback and experiences from folks who buy one in the first round.

While we wait, what games do you actually want to play on the Frame when you get yours? Please specify if it's a VR title or non-VR title (unless it's a super popular one like Hades or Portal that everyone will recognize).

I went through the Steam store "great on frame" listings as well as the overall VR listings, and IMO it's quite a mixed bag. There's fairly good variety but many of the "overwhelmingly positive" titles are relatively old, like even 2017-2022. And many of the newer titles don't seem to have a lot of players yet.

Of course, if you have no intention of ever buying a Frame or want to discourage others or even hype some other device, please just refrain from commenting. This simply isn't the thread for you.

All VR titles:
Beat Saber
Moss
MOTHERGUNSHIP Forge
Tinertia
Ragnarock
Various racing games with my wheel
Zone of the Enders 2
Rez Infinite
Redout
Hellblade
Psychonauts Rhombus of Ruin
Vox Machinae
Thumper
Thrasher
Bocce Time (I like Bocce Ball, sue me)
Doom VFR
Metal: Hellsinger VR
Half Life Alyx

Of note, Metal: Hellsinger VR is that far down the list because it's apparently a bit brutal for people new to VR. Very fast movement, not for weak stomachs. So I'll be trying that after I've gotten used to VR a bit. I will also play some flat games, but I have no idea what offhand yet. Only time will tell!

Great list! I'll have to check out some of the unfamiliar titles.

I forgot about that Psychonauts game, awesome!

Metal: Hellsinger does sound fun but yeah I'm a VR newbie too so I'll save that one till I have more experience so I don't get sick or punch a wall lol

Hellblade was pretty psychologically abrasive on a regular monitor (and not fun IMO), might have to skip a replay of that in VR though.

Wait, Mothergunship has VR support? I'm surprised anyone even knows this game exists...

I'll have to look into that. Mothergunship is awesome.

I've never played anything in VR. This will be my first VR headset and first VR experience in general.
