 Virtual Strangers is back again to cover all of the VR gaming news from this past week. We start with a quick rundown of all the new games from this past week as well as the upcoming week. From there we discuss all of the new titles that we picked up since the last episode, and it turns out that there were quite a few of them! Justin describes his experience in the alpha build of Pavlov for Oculus Quest, as well as Face Your Fears 2. Then we all give our impressions of Wolves in the Walls, and Alex and Ruuts go into some detail on Shadow Point. Wes and Justin wrap up the program by comparing some of the Oculus Quest ports to their Rift counterparts. The weekly review discussions that normally conclude the episode were filmed separately, and will be released one by one starting today, and  continuing throughout the week. So be sure to enable notifications, if you haven't already. Justin / mamefan:  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyHB... James / IamRuuts:  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrQC...
