I'm going to be up my own coin slot and flex my credentials—back in 2022, I won the Arcade Paradise Woodgal JR competition and even earned the platinum trophy for the game. So, who better to review the VR version of the game than me? (A lot of people, actually.) Do I get paid for this? After the original game's critical acclaim. Arcade Paradise VR launched on Meta Quest systems on April 25th, and later on PC and PSVR2 on August 8th. The game was developed by Nosebleed Interactive and published by Wired Productions.

It’s a tale of someon...

Not For Broadcast – PSVR 2 Review

Not for Broadcast is a full motion video game from British game developer, NotGames, and published by tinybuild. It was originally released on Steam in January 2022 after an early access period.
