Assassin's Creed
4.4
(10)
"Assassin's Creed Nexus for that price is an incredible deal. Its my favorite standalone game"
"I really enjoyed Assassin's Creed Nexus. Unlike many VR games that are short, like Arizona Sunshine, Nexus you can play for 12 to 16 hours and you will have fun the whole time."
"100% assassins creed vr"
"Assassin's Creed Nexus is really good"
"I loved Assassin’s Creed Nexus."
"Assassin’s Creed for $19 is pretty good. I thought it was a rubbish game at first because of the starting chapter being slow and boring, but it’s an excellent game especially if you’re a fan of the series."
"Assassin's creed is a good non horror triple a style experience"
"I would pick Metro Awakening and Assassin's Creed Nexus"
"Assassins Creed, although it has a couple of frustrating mechanics, is still a really good time"
"Nexus is alright janky blade physics and the ai can sometimes see straight through walls but I'd say it's good"
#2
Into the Radius
4.7
(7)
"Into the Radius, if you enjoy more open-ended games with realistic gunplay and maintenance (also a bit creepy at times). Arizona Sunshine Remake if you want a more light-hearted arcade feeling VR series."
"Into the radius is my second favorite game."
"Into The Radius for sure"
"Into the Radius was nearly the best experience I had in VR and is worth getting."
"Into the Radius. It's one of the best VR games period."
"Into The Radius and Metro are the right choices."
"My all-time favorite is Into The Radius"
#3
Starling
4.6
(5)
"Starling refunded me everything that was spent on my card after it was stolen, I would definitely recommend them"
"Very happy with it, and the app is simple to use as well"
"We use starling bank. Very handy when we are abroad. Never had an issue"
"I would recommend Starling, I've had them as my main bank for years and although I haven't used them abroad, I've had nothing but a great experience with them."
"I've used Starling and never had an issue. I recommended to my manager who I think ended up using Chase because it had a better rate."
#4
Arizona Sunshine
4.2
(5)
"AS2 is my most replayed game"
"Arizona Sunshine 2, Metro then Nexus but if they available on Steam I buy there instead cause graphically superior"
"If you like zombie games then arizona sunshine is good, gets kind of hectic at times"
"I'm on the DLC in AS1 and I'm having so much fun. Haven't tried the second one, but I'd recommend it."
"Arizona sunshines a fun one especially since you have a partner in the second one that is a dog"
#5
Metro
4.5
(4)
"I’d have to recommend Metro. That is one of the few VR games that I actually played until completion. It was a lot of fun good gun play and good story."
"Metro and Nexus. Polar opposites in terms of worlds, both great fun."
"Get metro and nexus"
"Theres a $30 bundle for metro and AS2."
#6
Chase
3.0
(5)
"Just got back from Thailand and was chuffed to still be getting the 1% cash back. Really impressed with Chase and it is now my number two account."
"I got chase specifically for foreign use works a charm lost my card on a small Mediterranean island and was able to cancel the card and order a new one immediately on the app and you get cash back"
"Chase used to be the best option for spending abroad because you could earn 1% cashback on almost all purchases (even abroad!) However in April they are changing their cashback offer limiting it to just spending on groceries, transport and fuel."
"I wouldn't recommend Chase anymore for spending Abroad as from April 7th, you'll no longer receive Cashback on any spending abroad."
"Chase was the best option because of the cashback, but that's no longer going to apply on foreign spending from 7th April."
