    Sprint Vector is unlike anything else on the VR market. The Fluid Locomotion System allows for high speed virtual movement without motion sickness for most people, and the game's ubeat, irreverent tone encourages both casual and competitive play. It does seem to be hit or miss, and sadly seems to lack that addictive quality for most people. Meanwhile, my competitive friends and platformer fans can't seem to get enough of it, and it's just physically demanding enough to provide a bit of a workout to boot.

    You can't compare it to anything else in VR, because there is nothing like it in VR. The best game you can compare it to is probably MarioYou can't compare it to anything else in VR, because there is nothing like it in VR. The best game you can compare it to is probably Mario Kart. All the mechanics are pretty robust, there's a strong multiplayer element, great visuals, and it's fun as sh*t. There's nothing else like slowly gaining on another player, watching them look back in panic, and the intense competitive feeling you get from these interactions. It's one of those things that simply doesn't work in anything but VR, since the degree of immersion brings all these elements to another level.

    I do have a few gripes though. Some parts of the map, say you get thrown off the beaten path by someone's powerup or an explosive barrel, are far too difficult to navigate. There needs to be a button press or combination that teleports you to the center of the track. I find way too often that I get stuck in between some level props that don't have any benefit to the track.

    All in all it's a great experience. I'd say that this is the VR title many people have been waiting for. If a larger, more capable studio was smart enough to create stuff like this then VR would be taking right the f*ck off.    … Full Review »

Challenging but fair. Only trouble is, after playing for an hour, I get knackered, and have to play something more sedentary. Guess that isn't really the game's fault.… Full Review »

    Sprint Vector is an interesting take on VR sports/racing.

    Pros:
    + Skating is a lot of fun, especially with Overdrive power-up
    + Maps are awesome, they have tons of shortcuts and alternative routes
    + The game is highly polished and optimized
    + Visuals are really stylish, best choice for VR

    Cons:
    - Switching different movement mechanics is really difficult to master. Especially between skating and gliding when it's hard to tell if you are standing on the surface or flying just few centimeters above it
    - Climbing is quite clunky, and there are some sections with obligatory climbing in Race mode
    - Later racing maps are much more focused on platforming rather than skating. And platforming when you can't see your legs can be really frustrating
    - Online multiplayer is almost dead    … Full Review »
