    Argos are selling Wipeout Omega Collection for €17.99 atm, which is handy considering the VR update today is free (and meant to be the best thing on PSVR so far).

    No one is mentioning the reduction in available ship types.
    Not the full game, in the way the Dirt Rally vr update was.

    ? Going by the review, the VR version has three extra ships.

    When I had the game set to normal the range of ship models, including my beloved 2097 type craft, were available for selection.
    Once I turned on the magic hat they vanished and only the same model was there, with different skins representing the various teams.
    But, of course, I might well be wrong, it has happened before.

    Weird. Maybe they have to be unlocked or something?

    Maybe so, but the normal screen mode has individual team ship models, VR mode only the stats and skin changes.

    Batman @ 14.99 / 9.99 is still not low enough for me considering game length.

    7.99 is absolute max I'd pay. Surprised it has held it's value for so long considering it was a launch title.

    I don't have Plus so 14.99 is still too high for me.

    Batman is one of the best PSVR games there is. Top 5 for sure. It's more than 2 hours, a lot more if you go for the Riddler's stuff.

    I agree this game is expensive but when I played it I didn't feel ripped off. You can see where the money was spent. I wish there was alot more too it alright.
    But I loved it, I've jumped briefly back into it, might just sit and do it all again, get the riddler trophies!

    That part with Robin handing you stuff through the cage is a real mindbender.

    Cold Iron is $7.99 on US store with PS Plus.

    I signed on for the 2-day PS Plus trial to get it. It's great fun with the latest update patch (though I don't know what it was like before... apparently too blurry?)

    I bought it took about 20 mins to finish and played it through about 3 times
    Not sure it was even worth 8 euro for the amount of time i spent on it

    I bought Inpatient for $12.79 on US store last week using my 20% off voucher.

    I gotta say, I'm really liking it. It's slow paced, but intentionally so. Builds up tension, it's like a horror play as it's essentially a walking sim.

    Definitely worth sale price.

    Yeah I got this with the VR bundle at christmas.
    The driving is limited in VR, its time trials and 1v1 in arcade mode.
    I like the VR mode as its a full body in the car, not floating hands

    If you like driving games its good. In fairness they constantly add decent content and more cars to it.
    Made me go out and buy a cheap steering wheel with a stand to play properly :D

    hmm not the cheapest...

    Great game though, but that's a pretty steep price

    Wow 17 quid is a great price for it! never knew it went that cheap, been tracking it since I got the PSVR and haven't seen it go below 60 quid for the base version alone.

    The bundle seems to drop to €19.99 often. I reckon it's due a drop soon.

    Might pick up Doom VFR and Superhot instead then and hope DiRT drops to 20 quid. Thanks.
