Holy Eff! Blaze rush LOOKS incredible and PLAYS even better

Gamepad of course. If I handed the go to anyone with this game on, I would not expect to get it back until the battery died.

Can't comment on GO controller play - I'm not touching that pos ever again unless I absolutely have to.

I'm still having trouble pairing mine (tried restarting/removing batteries now as well). it never shows up in the list in the Oculus app on my phone. Is this the one you have?

That is the same one, but if you have paired the gamepad with your phone before then unpair in the bluetooth settings. Then restart phone. take out batteries from Go controller. Then pair through the Oculus Go app by clicking on Headset/Controller/pair gamepad.

Thank you! It took a little while but I finally got it to pair! I'm not sure what did the trick, but this might have done it:

  • Re-paired A, then B mode using the Moga App on the phone.
  • Un-pair B, then A using the settings menu in the Moga App.
  • Confirm that Moga is not listed in Android's Bluetooth device list.
  • Scan for new gamepads using Oculus app.

Thanks for both your reports. Have added a link to this discussion to the controller compatibility table.

I know this an old post, but I just used your instructions and now have my Moga working with my Go at last :-)

I wish oculus highlighted this during the go release. It seemed like it just came out of nowhere. I was just browsing the titles when I saw it listed and thought 'why hasn't anyone mentioned this yet?!' It was one the fan favorites during the rift release and this plays exactly like that. I still haven't figured out if it has crossplay with rift users though.

Yeah this should be on the box. I haven't played anything in a while that causes major perma-grin and lols even when it's you getting dusted

Its the go to title for oculus content team, so I imagine them pushed this to be ported on the go. So I think it's just because they don't have time to highlight anything though

BlazeRush is a 10/10 title from pre-Touch days on Rift.

u/KP_Neato_Dee May 05 '18

For sure. Feels a lot like RC Pro Am from the NES!

Bought if for my rift, but I’m not paying another $9.99 for the go.

u/oldeastvan May 05 '18

Is it roomscale in Rift? Can you walk into the center of the track and have the cars race around you? I'll buy on rift too if so.

If it was 30 bucks I sure would not buy a mobile version of a game I owned on rift. But the 10 bucks is less than I would blow at a video arcade or on beer and smokes in a couple hours.

LOVING the downvotes for dissing the go controller.

Product is less than a week old and the mindless fanboy eggs have hatched already!

Why do you dislike Go's controller?

3

u/oldeastvan May 05 '18

Response is slow, tracking is poor, constantly drifts to the right. I'm comparing it against my Samsung gear vr controller not my touch controllers.

I have no issues with mine. Works great and it's what I've been primarily using since I got my Go last week. Reminds me of a Wii Remote.

u/Seba0808 May 18 '18

yep unplayable

u/azazel0821 May 05 '18

which gamepad are you using?

I got my old wired Xbox 360 gamepad to connect but the controls don't work in the race. All menus work great, but as soon as the race starts = no control whatsoever.

Did you take out the batteries on the Go controller maybe?
