Final Force

Viveport Review: Final Force   Dive into a futuristic world of brutality in Final Force, which features some of the best melee combat you’ll experience in VR.   By Joshua Hawkins, Greenlit Content     Few games in the virtual reality market have ever tried to diversify the first-person shooter genre, usually sticking with simpler things that fit well within the already pre-defined confines of the basic formula.

Shooty Fruity

Viveport Review: Shooty Fruity   This fun and frantic shooter blends first person gameplay, wave-based shooting, and Job Simulator into one.   By Joshua Hawkins, Greenlit Content     From merely glancing at Shooty Fruity, you might think it lacks depth, and could be forgettable. If you thought this, however, you’d be wrong.

REGENESIS Arcade DELUXE

Viveport Review: REGENESIS Arcade DELUXE   Rise to the top of the leaderboards in this intense arcade shooter that rewards skill and speed.    By Joshua Hawkins, Greenlit Content     There are a lot of arcade-style shooters for the HTC Vive.

Unfortunately, there isn’t much that’s innovative about REGENESIS Arcade DELUXE. Despite its faults, however, i
