If you haven't bought Polybius yet, get on it! Jeff deserves it!

+1. I consider it a genuine disgrace that the game has gained so little recognition. It's great fun in standard 2D and excellent in VR.

I'm tempted to pick up Statik and Moss in the PS Store sale. I do fear that Moss, as with your experience, will not make quite such an impact now that I've experienced Astro-Bot, though. Hmmn.

Moss is utterly delightful and a fantastic companion to Astro-Bot. They're both very different styles of platformer, with Moss being far more puzzle-oriented. It's also got a wonderful story-book feel to it and Quill (The main character) is so utterly charming. The animation is really beautiful in places and it tells a nice story. As with Astro-Bot (and a lot of VR games) it's not particularly long (4-5 hours I think) but it's a fantastic game with some amazing atmosphere in places.

Statik is good as well. I picked it up a few weeks ago. I think I'm about 3/5th of the way through it. Great puzzle game that's all about you figuring out what you need to do. Great fun.

Slowly picking up all the PSVR titles that have been recommended in here thanks to these sales.
Got Moss cheap last week in the US sale, and have now added Rez and Statik.

Would like to get an Aim Controller and Far Point, but it's pretty expensive. I'm sure the controller is great, but I can't find a bundle for less than £55 - and that's the Firewall one.

I've heard Firewall is decent, and the Aim Controller is a nightmare to find on it's own so might be best to get that and just pick up Farpoint separately.

Has anybody picked up Deracine? And if so, what was your impression of it?
It looks like The Invisible Hours to me (which I loved), but I may be mistaken on this. I’m also worried that the move controller implementation will lead to it being a technically frustrating experience, with hands flying around the screen etc.

Just started Astro Bot and it is pretty special. Just superbly imaginative. Feeling reasonably nauseous after only a 30 min session though.

And now for some good news... it seems that Polybius has made money! Sony made an "administrative error" and are paying Llamasoft now :D .

Just completed Statik, very good game, currently £3.99 and will test your mind.

Missing two trophies I have no idea how to get. I am assuming that one is down to the random cups with different colours

Very interested in this one, but it says it's £7.99 on the shop - where have you found it for this price?

Lime, I believe that PS Plus members get an additional discount, bringing the price down to £3.99. This doesn't show on the web version of the Store, but should do on your console.

Edit: Yeah, here's a PSPrices link showing the additional reduction.

Thanks Jawa - I didn't realise the PS Plus prices were sometime not appearing online. I might sign up for a month if there are some good sale bargains.

I did wonder whether Astro Bot 2-1 would be able to improve on World 1. Oh my strawberry floating days, it's absolutely incredible. The sense of scale is just breathtaking.

If you think World 2 is good, wait until you see 3...

Is there anything about at the moment, relatively cheap that’s good to mess about with family on Christmas Day.

I have Super Hot which will come out, but my other stuff is more singleplayer focussed or too complex. Didn’t really take to Tumble.

Driveclub VR is £8 if you had the season pass. I do.
Anyone recommend it?
