I emerged from my first session of Beat Saber, wide-blinking and dripping with sweat, having just unboxed an Oculus Quest 2 an hour earlier, my only previous VR experience a few years earlier with the now-forgotten Google Daydream. As editor of this website, I read a lot about VR — we cover the best Oculus Quest 2 games and accessories extensively — but I didnt expect to fall as hard, and as quickly, for it ...
