Although the VR version of Pinball FX2 is the same game, it somehow feels more authentic. I don't know if they changed something or not, but suddenly the ball moves and sounds more like a real pinball table with extra toys and special effects. Standing over the virtual table, you know it's virtual, but it looks much like a real table. In terms of the VR experience, it is perfectly suited to everyone's space because unlike most other VR games, you can stand or sit still and you don't have to wave your arms around as you would for a shooting game. Even the menu is controlled by head tracking. I think standing makes a big difference to the experience, but adjusting the viewing angle is not very precise and you can end up with neck ache from looking down at the flippers.Unfortunately, as with the regular Pinball FX2, the tables still seem too easy and sometimes you are defeated by tiredness rather than a lack of skill as a game turns into a marathon session where the ball is saved over and over again. I guess that would count in the game's favour if you are a pinball novice. Still, I enjoyed playing the game a great deal and I would play the VR version now in preference to playing it on screen.I would definitely recommend Pinball FX2 VR to pinball fans and VR enthusiasts alike. The VR version is making me like Pinball FX2 more than before and it didn't leave me feeling motion-sick like some VR games do.. The envirmonets are really well done. I like how the whole atmosphere changes for each table. Special effects are great, a little distracting at times, but I wouldn't want them changed.The gameplay is just as good as console versions. Flippers are responsive and the physics seem realistic. The tables ( have all of them) are well laid out and fun.My only real complaint is the room setup. I purchased all of the tables, but the room only holds 3 tables at a time. If you want to play other ones, you have to go to the menu screen (TV in the middle of the room) and replace a table in the room with one that you want. I would rather just have them all in a room and have the ability to go from table to table. If this can't be done, I wish the programmers would add another room if needed. But, this issue doesn't take anything away from the gameplay or how polished and well done the graphics and environments are.I bought this on the summer sale for half price and felt it was well worth the money. I would recommend it to anybody who likes pinball.. Not playable for Oculus Rift owners.First of all you have to start the game and select the screen on your desktop view or else it isn't the active window.Secondly the Rift controlers do not work like you would expect them to do (the A button is hidden under right thumb down and click and B is Right thumb right and click).When using my XBox One controler the game was easier to navigate (A was A and B was B and the cross button and left and right triggers did what they had to do).But when i selected a machine the option to 'launch' a ball was nowhere to find.Problems about this where mentioned a year ago but it seems Zen Studios is still meditating on a solution for the problem.. Dev no longer support this game, instead of adding new pinballs they made another version of the game to force you to buying a whole new package. The Dev doesnt care for the steam community at all,. I remember playing pinball as a kid growing up in the 70's and 80's... I'm a kid again... This is how pinball needs to be played.great sounds and special effects.. it's like the real thing but MUCH better.I suggest an enhancement i would like to be able to play the game lying down.. Zen Pinball in VR is great. It looks great and feels more like an authentic pinball table. I do wish you could adjust some of the sound effect volume level. I can't wait for more of the zen tables are playable. Integration with the PBFX3 multiplayer tournament would be nice too.. let me start by saying i like this game, now let me say i am fed up paying for tables i have on ps3,ps4,steam and now steam VR i hate to be ripped off and sadly this is how i now feel so i will now play the tables i own but i will not be purchasing any new titles in future.shame really to treat good customers in this fashon.hope it bites you in the a^&. Does not work well with Oculus touch controllers. Pressing A does not work - you have to pull back on the right thunbstick and then press it down. Not worth the hassle of remembering - for something with basically two buttons it has not even been mapped correctly for Rift.. I have to say that this is one of those games that really benefit from the jump to VR. You could totally play these games without being in VR, but if you've ever spent any time in an arcade or a bar, or wherever you might find a pinball machine in real life, there's no real substitute for playing it the way it was meant to be played.My only regret in FX2 VR is that you can't actually feel the glass, metal and plastic of the pinball machine as you play. You're still somewhat detached from the whole thing since you don't feel the flipper buttons under your fingers and you don't nudge the table by actually moving. Still though, you can follow the action without having to rely on the game following the ball, and everything looks as realistic as you would expect a real pinball machine to look.Pros: you can easily see the whole table without relying on the screen shifting to show the action. it's the closest you'll get to actually owning a pinball table without actually having to buy one.Cons: They've got some stuff set up around you as you play that's kinda distracting. No multiplayer. As an example of the distractions, there's one pinball game where a hot chick is standing off to the side (though they always make them way too thin) and you're trying to concentrate on the table and she's standing there talking. It's neat and all, but I imagine it would be cooler for friends watching you play.It'd be cool if you could invite someone to play, and then they could download a demo of the table in question and join me for a game or two, or otherwise allow other people to join in (like if they had the 2D version of the game, you could show a virtual version of them playing). That would be awesome.
