    Well I gotta say- VR Skater has been a pleasant surprise! I'm usually not that into sports games, spending most of my time playing more narrative-focused games, but the last few days I've been playing VR Skater exclusively. As someone who spent his teenage years very dedicated to skating, this game has been a real pleasure to play and improve at.

I'm usually not that into sports games, spending most of my time playing more narrative-focused games, but the last few days I've been playing VR Skater exclusively. As someone who spent his teenage years very dedicated to skating, this game has been a real pleasure to play and improve at. I keep seeing people mention the difficulty, but I feel like I've been steadily improving and am pulling some pretty cool combos/runs after only a few sessions. Sure, you won't be doing 30X combos, but that's because it's more of a sim than say, a tony hawk PS. And honestly, pulling off simple tricks in this feels way better and more rewarding than mastering a tony hawk game.
    My only negative is that the game feels a little empty in terms of levels and modes... hopefully the devs are gonna keep adding new maps and challenges, cause with the price tag being what it is, I do feel like this could quickly get boring and feel overpriced. That said, for now I'm all in and loving it, even while I'm still trying to get good.    … Expand

    VR Skater is not a bad game, but it could have been better and more varied. More maps, more modes, more songs in the soundtrack, and perhaps more attention to detail in the design of the game itself. All of this would have added to the game and made for a more enjoyable experience.

    Challenging without being unfair, accessible without being patronising. It might be the VR skating experience you’ve dreamed of (if you dreamed of using your hands). [Issue#32, p.80]

    Overall, VR Skater offers a unique skateboard experience, despite not taking full advantage of the power of the PSVR 2 and the PS5. If you are a big fan of Tony Hawk Skateboard videogames, VR Skater is definitely worth checking out.
