virtual-reality could very well be the
way of the future
or at the very least the world of gaming
could be a more interesting place with
its inclusion welcome to watchmojo.com
and today we’ll be counting down our
picks for the top 10 video game series
that would be epic in VR we’re going
over the games in series that we feel
would most benefit from the
implementation of virtual reality
technology our focus is primarily on
series with a first-person perspective
or ones that can be developed around a
first-person view for future
installments
we’re also ruling out games that already
have official VR support that doesn’t
look good
he’s taken a lot of damage number 10
antichamber quirky unorthodox and
outright bizarre yeah this will do
nicely
developed for years by loan designer
Alexander Bruce antechamber is a
philosophically driven puzzle game one
that thrusts you into spaces that seem
to defy logic before forcing you to
overcome them
it’s thought-provoking design and simple
yet i catching collar scheme could be
greatly emphasized in sequels with the
addition of BR making it easier to
engage with the visuals and ideas that
are at play
this also means that decrypting the
concept behind a given puzzle will be
all the morons firing a major bonus in
our eyes
number nine EA Sports UFC series Joe
great job avoiding that clash though
EA’s fight night series may be more
established within the company’s lineup
we feel this Ultimate Fighting
Championship branded title has a little
more to offer the a Sports UFC embraces
in large part the intensity and variety
inherent to the sport of mixed martial
arts fighting combatants grapple with
ferocity kicks and punches abound and if
all this was viewed through a
first-person perspective the experience
would be unlike any other terrifying
though it may seem the prospect of
engaging in a virtual reality battle
with real-life MMA fighters is
incredibly enticing in its novelty
number eight rocket League
developer psyonix hit title rocket
League in which player operated RC cars
engage in a game akin to soccer seems
primed to inspire a different way to
approach virtual reality
we feel that spectator mode would take
on a new meaning vr technology could
simulate a grandstand view of the action
not unlike watching sports in a
real-life Stadium it can also be used
for live streaming or action replays it
could be implemented for professional
tournaments
it could even be expanded further
imagine sports simulation games giving
players a bystander’s perspective on
imagined progress
number seven Metroid Prime series
Nintendo and retro studios joint project
in bringing Metroid to first-person
gaming feels worthy of further
innovation released for the Nintendo
GameCube Metroid Prime managed to not
only blend first-person combat and
exploration of various locales
but evoke tangible atmosphere as well
little things like seeing samus’s
reflection on her visor in the midst of
bright explosions make an admirable case
for the implementation of VR in Metroid
Prime four if that ever happens the
sense of immersion and tension at play
would be heightened greatly and it would
be a great showcase for a hypothetical
VR interface on the Nintendo and X just
saying just saying number six
star wars battlefront series
star wars battlefront the latest
installment of the beloved series acts
as a streamlining of the game’s core
traits grand scale battles reliant on
classic Star Wars iconography and
settings and while these series lack of
content in this recent iteration is
regrettable the impressive visuals
provided by the Frostbite engine only
make us wish for a fee our Star Wars
experience even more we’ve seen that
modern technology can bring some of our
most treasured movie moments to life and
put a smack dab in the middle of them so
bearing witness to this gloriousness in
full VR would be a dream come true
number 5 amnesia series
or seems to be a fitting place to test
out such technology and the pedigree of
the amnesia games known for their
ability to build suspense and keep
layers on edge underlines its value as
one such testing ground a birch ooh
already headset could build on the
inherent creepiness of this franchise’s
Dart settings as well as test players
patience with the designed lack of
combat abilities where should I go hello
hello such an experience would not be
for the faint of heart though obviously
if you did choose to go for it you’d
have to use headphones for complete
immersion
number four f0 series speed along and
never mind the competition the f0 series
built upon the unique element of racers
piloting high speed hover cars has seen
changes in its presentation since it
began on the SNES from utilizing the
super Nintendos mode 7 pseudo-3d
technology to transitioning into full 3d
with f-zero X each game has proven that
the core concept can weather change
thus the addition of not only a
first-person perspective but also a
virtual reality view would infuse the
tight racing and fast-paced antics with
increased tension if it succeeds heck
the same approach could be also applied
to mario kart number three Grand Theft
Auto series speaking of fast driving
here’s a serious gameplay would
certainly be fascinating with the
infusion of VR Hardware primary
developer Rockstar North already toyed
with the concept of first-person play in
their open-world centric series with the
inclusion of a first-person mode in
Grand Theft Auto 5 next-gen
the theoretical terror and exciting
action that could ensue from a full
embrace of virtual reality is definitely
tantalizing letters could easily go from
stealing cars to robbing stores to
running for their dear life from the
police all of that framed in a near real
point of view think about it it would be
pretty sweet
number two the Elder Scrolls series this
fantasy saga feels like it may deliver
the scope and ambition we seek can you
even imagine from its humble origins to
the release of 2011 Skyrim the series
has always dealt out its fantastical
proceedings from a first-person
perspective but what if Bethesda Game
Studios went even further the Greybeards
tend not to get out much if you catch my
meaning virtual reality could infuse the
traversal of mountain peaks and the
battling of assorted bows with greater
visual depth and a clearer sense of
detail and that’s to say nothing of the
on that would result from witnessing the
game’s wonder in such a manner
you could easily apply this formula to
the Fallout series as well because
possessed uh although they may have to
tighten up the animations a bit if you
want full immersion because Bethesda
straight-to-the-point a good I like that
before we unveil our top pick here are a
few honorable mentions
number one Mirror’s Edge series man
gotta run real good one just once more
EA dice we call to you to grant us this
privilege the stark beauty simply a
distinct art style and fast-paced action
of Mirror’s Edge would be enough reason
to call for VR support in a potential
sequel but the game’s focus on parkour
and anxiety inducing platforming takes
it a step further
little wood hammer hold quite as
effectively the near constant danger
faced by the courrier faith then
experiencing that danger close up from
the scale of the cityscape to the
tangible feeling when falling it would
be nothing short of terrifying and thus
magnificent in the emotional responses
it would invoke you okay come on
do you agree with our list no no not now
what game series do you think would be
epic in VR for more hopeful top 10s
