Guns'n'Stories Bulletproof VR (PSVR) Review

Guns’n’Stories Bulletproof is a dynamic shooter and the latest game released by game developers MIROWIN for PSVR. Is it any good? Let’s begin our review.

Guns’n’Stories Bulletproof is western themed VR shooter set in alternate realistic take on the Wild West.  The story is told from the perspective of a grandfather, recounting his pseudo realistic memories of adventures from this past days.  The central plot is spread out across 3 acts, each with 3 sub-chapters and a final boss to defeat at the end.  The story is a high point of the game, as it doesn’t take itself seriously and weaves a tangled narrative of funny scenarios along the way.  Cutscenes are presented in the cinematic perspective with the player in first person view, seated in a theater, watching the video on a hovering movie screen in front of them.   

The voices of both the grandfather and grandson are heard during gameplay, giving more context of the events of story.  Often in comical ways, as you progress along the main campaign.

The game is played using 2 PS Move controllers in each hand simulating the use of dual firearms.  For the most part each level begins with you taking on wave after wave of enemies using revolvers in each hand, only be given a much more powerful gun near the middle of chapter completion.  The enhanced weapons are extremely fun to use as they range from enjoyable overpowered to comically ridiculous – but in a way.  The game can be played in a standing position or a sitting position.  There is no movement at all, as the player remains in a stationary position, with enemies approaching either from the right, left or center from entry points built into each set piece.  

Guns’n’Stories features a wide range of enemies from the standard mindless disposable minions, to the semi-bullet spongy heavy grunts, some “Mexicans” as pointed out in game and even flying drones.  Some enemies are easier than others to dispatch, with head-shots as expected being incentives.   

The graphics are sharp and with detailed textures, everything is well defined and whilst having a bit of a cartoon-ish aesthetic – the world also has a somewhat realistic feel to it as well.  There are various levels of difficulty which dramatically ramp up the intensity and challenge.  The entire game story line can be completed within 2 hours, but there is replay value for persons looking trophy hunt or attempt the bonus objectives.

In conclusion Guns’n’Stories Bulletproof is an enjoyable western style shooter – with an interesting narrative, scaleable difficulty and intrinsic replay value.  The game is currently available on the PlayStation Store for $19.99 and at that price you more than get what you pay for.  It’s definite pickup for persons who are into VR shooters.

RUSH VR (PSVR) Review

Rush VR is a game that takes on wingsuit racing in virtual reality.  The premise is simple, jump from the top and speed your way to the bottom.  The game was developed by The Binary Mill, who also released versions for Steam and Oculus devices.  From the moment you put the VR headset, you get an outline view from the perspective of if you were actually wearing a helmet.  This touch greatly adds to the immersion and pumps you up for what is to come.  In Rush VR, you race at high speeds down the sides of various locations, at different times of day and weather conditions.  You are encouraged to push yourself to the limit to increase your boost meter.  Your boost meter is a quick speed kick that can be activated when needed. 

Controlling RUSH VR (PSVR) Using PS Move Controllers

                                

The game features 80 tracks, spread across 4 environments, and dozens of wingsuits to unlock.  As well as game modes including Race to the finish, Time Attack, and Score Challenge. There is a single player campaign and online multiplayer which allows for up to seven players to take part at a time, in a race.

Rush VR excels when it comes to giving you methods of control.  You can play with a DualShock 4, one or two PS Moves controllers, and multiple other combinations of these.  You can also control using head movements for steering, or by pointing to locations.  The most fun to be had, is obviously pretending to be Superman – with Move controllers each in hand and experiencing the feeling of speeding through the air at high speed.
