VR Summer Sports Reviews

I had fun. It has a bit of something going for it. I like that it reminds me of Daily Thompson's Decathlon Challenge, a game on computers from my youth (about the time dinosaurs still roamed the Earth). As you'd expect, It's a bunch of mini games strapped in to one island. It has shooting, rowing, archery, throwing, running and jumping. All with mostly ok VR controls. Graphically it's not great, but there's definitely some fun to be had. I'll probably not be back any time soon, but I'd not want to forget about it, if not for the lols and the high scores. Recommended because I like athletics IRL and this game made me smile. YMMV.

This games is way better than the other VR summer sports game. All events feel pretty good. Swimming is my favorite so far but there's some unique events here that you wont find on other collections. Archery is nice. Feels better than the other VR archery games i've played. 2 boating events are unique and feeel good.. No motion sickness. Sprinting feels right too. Graphics are better than you would expect from looking at the store page. It does this cool swooping down effect when you select a sport that takes you from a birds eye view right down to the event. Swimming has some nice underwater effects. Actually the whole game is kind of better than expected.

VR Summer Sports is of course a collection of ten sports all of which have a high score as well as various difficulties if they are too hard for you. You start off by making a profile with is little more than choosing a flag and name, then you pick the sport. There are various areas on a small diorama in front of you and in a nice touch the one you choose zooms in on that playing space as if you are overlooking all of them. Some of the sports are easy, others not so much, but you can easily challenge friends and family to this and it is one of the better VR sports games I have played. I even think the price is just about right, especially if you are a score chaser like I am. Sure, the graphics are nothing amazing and the controls are often too simple for their own good, but with not much competition out there I still give this an easy thumbs up.
