8 Video Game Moments That Will Be Mind-Blowing With The Oculus Rift

7. Floating Through Space - Dead Space 2?

Any virtual reality list wouldn€™t be complete without the inclusion of at least one horror game. Although Dead Space 2 features here, a number of other games with moments in space could certainly qualify. Alien Isolation had occasional ventures into space for example, and can even be set up to work with the Oculus Rift. However, since Dead Space 2 had scenes that gave the player free reign to float around in zero gravity, there€™s a lot of freedom to play with the your point of view - the surreal feeling of floating upside-down while sitting upright on the couch at home, for example. As fun and as bizarre as that would be, there€™s one thing that springs to mind immediately that would top the feelings of isolation while floating around in a vacuum; the feeling that the player is not quite alone while floating around in a vacuum. When horror games do it right, they instil a feeling of paranoia in the player that they can€™t quite shake. Not only has that happened to many players while playing Dead Space - being attacked while saving the game is a feeling of dread that takes some time to overcome - but it's possible those feelings could increase a hundredfold if done from a first-person perspective.
