Though it's absolutely fair to say that virtual reality is still very much a niche adjunct to traditional "flat" gaming, it's certainly proved its staying power over the last few years.

With the success of the Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, and especially PlayStation VR, VR has captured an unexpectedly large portion of the audience mind-share, and as anyone who's put on a VR helmet can attest, there is no feeling like experiencing a VR game for the first time.

The sensation of feeling truly immersed in another world is absolutely staggering, and though true AAA VR games have sadly been few and far between, the likes of Resident Evil 7 and Half-Life: Alyx represent some of the most unique gaming experiences of the entire generation.
