5. Firewall Zero Hour (79)

Sony

After getting burned by the disappointment of Bravo Team, it's safe to say that many kept their expectations in-check for this past summer's PSVR shooter Firewall Zero Hour, especially considering developer First Contact Entertainment Inc.'s lack of industry cred.

Mercifully, Firewall effectively ended up being the game headset owners wanted Bravo Team to be: a tense, highly addictive squad-based multiplayer shooter with exceptional Aim controller tracking.

It ended up becoming one of the year's best-reviewed PSVR games, and likely as a result of this, the multiplayer community is still surprisingly active almost four months later.

Given that few would've been surprised if it ended up another dud like Bravo Team, this was a mighty relief indeed.
