Pros
Pro Built specifically with a VR headset in mind
Unlike many other games, this one was built ground up for a head mounted display instead of adapted for it. As such the user interface and control scheme are well optimised for the Oculus Rift.
Pro Does not require any additional controllers
All interaction in the game are done using the headset. Head gestures are used to interact with the user interface and aiming is done by looking at the target.
Pro No VR sickness
The game creates a frame of reference for the player by having his avatar be stationary. That helps avoid motion sickness commonly induced by the dissociative feeling created when the avatar is moving and the player himself is stationary.
Pro Free
The game is available completely for free.
Pro Runs smooth
No lag, excellent, non-jittery head tracking.
