I never would've been able to fathom a VR game being this good. Before playing Half-Life: Alyx, VR games were a novelty to me - games I would play on a whim if I was bored or if my friends wanted to play. However, this game provides the experience that a full AAA title does and can certainly be considered the definitive VR experience. Seeing City 17 from Half Life come to life in VR felt like I was at an amusement park, and getting to explore the fully interactive environments made it even better. A technical marvel and one of the best games I have ever played.
