    #222 | Batman Arkham Shadow 2 is Cancelled // Rewarding VR Games to Play on Meta Quest 3

    Batman Arkham Shadow 2 is officially canceled, it really is over for Meta VR Gaming, and that’s okay? I think… Elsewhere a listener asks us “what are some rewarding VR games like Hitman?” And we try our best to answer with 6 games! Crafting Crimes shows us what VR is all about and Samson plays Dispatch on Big Screen.

    UPDATE: BATMAN ARKHAM SHADOW 2 IS ALSO CANCELLED... Meta begin to pull out of VR Gaming. Layoffs have unfortunately been a common occurrence in the tech industry, but this one has sent ripples through the VR community. What is Meta’s plan moving forward?

In brighter news, the best VR game, Walkabout Mini Golf, is at it again with a fantastic new course, Tiki á Coco, it might actually be one of their best yet.  LTO Discord: https://discord.gg/WUUQyHZpTh  LTO Patreon: https://Patreon.com/letstalkoculus Affiliate Links: META QUEST 3S: https://www.meta.com/affiliates/AZAbLMwn6 META QUEST 3: https://www.meta.com/affiliates/5JNKhtiiy RAYBAN Meta Wayfarer: https://www.meta.com/affiliates/JPJtgK6LP RAYBAN Meta Headliner: https://www.meta.com/affiliates/87vVR1nRY QUEST 3 Carrying Case: https://www.meta.com/affiliates/EVzw35SBE Elite Strap with Battery: https://www.meta.com/affiliates/9F1EXS9wH Elite Strap: https://www.meta.com/affiliates/FuGn77L91 Charging Dock: https://www.meta.com/affiliates/9RC9HEGq8 Silicone Facial Interface: https://www.meta.com/affiliates/5DTVX8pub Active Straps: https://www.meta.com/affiliates/7Qhfo4FXn LTO Posters: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1JhuvaqbxtJmO-io4lvoU4tN9B4CemspK?usp=drive_link VR COVER: https://vrcover.com Use code: PlayTestVR for 10% off EVERYTHING          Quest Referral Spreadsheet...over 150 games!: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kssKH2L8cSZCwbJ2S6aZQwvbIZsjZ0s1UcCHKotJ3ic/edit?usp=sharing            Want to be part of the show?
