Even so, “Vader Immortal: A Star Wars VR Series” is a compelling virtual adventure while it lasts. I know many have said that the game is more like an “experience” than a “game,” and sure, I feel that, but even so, it’s still an incredible experience and a pretty fun game, too. I may recommend waiting for a price drop if you are skeptical, but the PlayStation 4 version does come with all three episodes, and they are worth it, so if you are a “Star Wars” fan and you have a VR headset, I do recommend giving the game a shot. Visuals, if you play PSVR, you already know. Heaps of aliasing, nice enough character models, flat, barely textured environments. No character body, just hands. Sony will also be offering a second bundle inlcuding the Darth Vader PS4, which oddly includes Disney Infinity 3, but not Battlefront itself. This second Limited Edition offering also includes some Star Wars figurines, but will only be available from Wal Mart in the US, according to Sony.

Darth Vader PS4: This IS the console you’re looking for

In terms of my problems with the game, though, I wish there was more. Not just in terms of length, but in the gameplay as a whole. As great of an experience as it is, much of the game is spent watching, and the game does feel a bit light on the gameplay. The great thing is that, once you are in the gameplay, it’s extremely fun, but even still, I wish there was a little bit more interactivity to the gameplay. Also, this is a minor complaint, but holy moly, the gun controls that pop up in the game are atrocious. The other elements are so cool, but the shooting? I hope I never have to deal with shooting that bad in a VR game again. The PS4 has always had a dark side. Two of them, in fact. However, a limited Darth Vader edition of the console to be released this November will really bring a touch of evil to the PlayStation. Simply not worth the buy price. If nothing else, PSnow needs to come to Australia and every VR title needs to be on it. These games are playable for the first time on PS4, and Sony said they will feature "enhanced graphics and trophy support". They sound like remasters of a sort, then.

In Episode II, with the fearsome Sith Lord as your guide, you’ll battle terrifying creatures and uncover ancient secrets beneath the planet's surface and learn to master the Force. As for the special edition system, I couldn't have asked for a cooler reason to buy a PS4. It's a great collectible for a fan.

Even if the visuals aren’t the most high-quality things out there, they do look pretty solid, and honestly, the simple feeling of being in VR and experiencing a “Star Wars” game is pretty incredible. At several points while playing, I felt like I was on the coolest amusement park ride ever, and it was just so captivating. The scenery and design of the game’s world is breathtaking and seeing it all in VR is just stunning. And gameplay-wise, the game does feel pretty fun. The lightsaber controls are mostly pretty good, and getting to control the force is pretty compelling, too. And while the story isn’t the deepest thing ever, it works very well for the “Star Wars” series, and it’s nice to see that they took it seriously, despite the game’s short length. The player follows a linear path through the game, able to use the Force to do various things as necessary to move forward to the next area. [4] Synopsis [ edit ]
