It's great, I've been really enjoying it. Everything you love about Tie Fighter, but feels thoroughly modern, has that feel, "this is just like the movies!". I just hope my 20 year old joystick survives, prices for replacement are off-putting.
I would love to build a Tie Fighter Cockpit gaming rig some day

Squadrons was amazing, and amazingly disorientating at the same time. Really awesome VR experience though. Up there with HL Alyx in terms of “unique to VR”
I would think a cockpit VR experience would be much superior to a FP one.

Does whatever the current Mechwarrior game is support VR?
Wow, this is really impressive. There's a huge number of scenarios and the assets look really good considering it's fan made. If this appeals to you, I'd highly recommend giving Star Wars Squadrons a try in a high end VR rig. The game overall isn't perfect, but it's by far the closest I've ever felt to feeling like I was flying a tie fighter or an x wing.
This conversion has VR support as well, so you should get that same immersion, with the stronger gameplay provided by the Alliance game engine. I haven't played Squadrons myself.
Squadrons is a blast in VR but I wasn't the biggest fan of the feel of the flight model. Especially coming from combat in Elite:Dangerous with much nicer cockpits, etc.

My first response is, I don't know. But I guess it depends on what you consider the current MechWarrior game. I know of MechWarrior online, which I don't believe does, but I suspect there's a newer MechWarrior game out, or coming soon. There's also a newer strategy BattleTech game which I doubt would benefit from VR.

My biggest gripes with Star Wars Squadrons are the poor campaigns, or lack thereof, and ships tuned for competitive multiplayer only.
I've seen an official example with Blizzard and Diablo 2: https://news.blizzard.com/en-us/diablo2/23658118/diablo-ii-r...
Any other old games being remastered officially or unofficially?
