All-In-One Sports VR

[code]Played on my Meta Quest 2 [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45534557/]@MatureContent[/url][/code] This is probably the closest we get to a VR version of Wii Sports on steam. I recently got this game on the spring sale for like 5 bucks I think. I had had it on my wishlist for a while as I was looking for the best VR alternative to Wii Sports and I think this is getting pretty close to that. As of the time writing this review, there are 16 different playable sports in this game, some better than others. I decided to just review every single one individually. I'll start with the modes I liked. [h1]The Good[/h1] [h3]Archery[/h3] I started out with archery, since it seemed like the easiest mode to really get right and it was pretty good, it worked pretty much as I expected. You shoot at a target and the one with the most points win. [h3]Basketball[/h3] In this game, basketball is just shooting hoops, that said, it was still fun and I was surprisingly good at it. The game shuffles you through different positions and you have to score a certain amount of points to advance. The first to finish all positions win. [h3]Air hockey[/h3] Air hockey was also one of the better modes, but it has also been adapted to VR many times in the past. This is a 1v1 mode with powerups and you just have to score enough goals to win. [h3]Racket ball[/h3] This is another really good mode and may be one of the best. Hit registration just felt right here and it was actually quite immersive. I played a few matches in this before moving on. [h3]Boxing[/h3] Boxing was also pretty fun. In boxing there are three different modes available to choose from. You can fight a match against an opponent, play beat boxing, which is a similar mode to Beat Saber or you can play heavy bag, which is just punching marked locations on a large punching bag. I liked both the beat boxing mode and the actual fighting. [h3]Golf[/h3] Golf was also quite good, though pretty hard to get the feel for. It took me a while to really understand just how hard I had to hit, especially the closer to the hole I got. The game does help you though by automatically handing you the correct clubs for your position, so your job is just to put it in the hole. That said, it is harder than it looks and takes some getting used to. [h3]Darts[/h3] This was definitely also one of the better modes. That said I didn't really understand the rules of darts before playing and I still don't, so I just kept losing. It did still feel pretty good though and if I understood how to play, I'm sure I would have enjoyed this even more and probably also played for longer. [h3]Badminton[/h3] One thing I do know how to play though is badminton. I played a lot of this when I was younger and while playing it again in this game isn't anywhere near what it is like in real life, it was still pretty fun. In this mode serving correctly also proved no issue, unlike in tennis which we get to later. [h3]Table tennis[/h3] I believe this was the second mode I tried out, as I was really looking forward to playing table tennis again. The first round I got absolutely smoked, but I got a lot better after each attempt and it ended up being one of the better modes. I will say though, that the hit registration is questionable at times, so if you actually play table tennis a lot in real life, you probably won't enjoy this as much. [h1]The Bad[/h1] [h3]Billiards[/h3] Like boxing, billiards also offers three different modes to choose from, 8ball, 3cushion and 4ball. I mostly played 8ball when testing it out. The biggest issue in this mode was definitely the guideline on the balls direction. In the start I thought it might just be me who sucked, but after further testing by lining up at different lengths and shooting, it was quite obvious to me that the line is off center on my headset, which makes it pretty hard to play this. [h3]Bowling[/h3] I was actually really looking forward to bowling, since I inherited my VR headset from my granddad who was an experienced bowler before he died. Unfortunately I had to give up on this gamemode, no matter what I did or at which angle I stood, the ball would fly out in the gutters and I think I only succeeded in hitting the pins once. [h3]Volleyball[/h3] Volleyball was one of the hardest modes and it didn't feel good at all with the big Meta Quest 2 controllers clunking against each other all the time. I gave up on this before even finishing a match. This was also the mode where I was the most afraid of smashing my hands into something hard. [h3]Kungfu[/h3] This was a weird mode and felt a lot like an old Wii Sports gamemode or maybe even like an old EyeToy game from the PS2 era. You pretty much just stand there moving your arms around to match the different colored symbols flying at you. You win when you dealt enough damage to your opponent. [h3]Football[/h3] Football was one of the worst modes in the entire game. Most of the time is spent running around after the ball and once you get it, your teammates end up running into you, stunning you and you then have to catch the ball again. This really sucked. [h3]Tennis[/h3] This could easily have been one of the best modes in the game, if it wasn't near impossible to serve a ball without hitting the net. Everything from hit registration to the auto movement was good, it was just the broken serving that made it unplayable for me. [h3]Baseball[/h3] At last, baseball. Baseball offers two different playable modes, a match and batting cages. Batting cages was alright and as expected, but when it came to playing an actual match, I think the AI just broke. In the match I played, the AI never actually successfully connected with a ball and I ended up quitting after a few minutes of just throwing balls around. If the AI isnt broken, it could also just be me not knowing how to play baseball. [h1]Conclusion[/h1] Some modes are definitely better than others, but I think it offers enough good for this to still be a good VR game. I mean, it never forces you to play any modes that you may not like. So, overall, I think this is a good alternative to Wii Sports, especially if you also get the chance to get it for just a few bucks like I did. One last thing, if you are someone who likes to hunt achievements in games, they seem a bit broken in this one, with achievements first unlocking after leaving the game and not all of them. Just good to know. ————————————————————————————— [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45534557/]Help me out by following my Curator, I’d really appreciate it!![/url]

I play Badminton and table tennis often. That is why i cant recommend this game if you are looking for racket sports in VR. The shots are very unrealistic and not intuitive. Not fun for me

I LIKEY GAME, I BIG BOY BUT I NO VERY ATHLETIC

I want to like this game, but it seems to put unnecessary restrictions on the games. Most game modes do not seem to allow for more than 1v1 matches. If that ever changes, I might buy it again, because it did not seem bad, but not being able to play with more than one friend at a time made it a non-starter.

пинг понг на столько реалистичный, что мой друг поверил, что перед ним стол и неудачно на него облокотился

Pros: A lot of games to choose from, something for everyone really. Cons: Everything else. I played a bunch of different sports and the only one I enjoyed was archery. Everything else just seemed overly sensitive to motion and so off the mark. Also, be aware that if you pause the game in anything where you're playing directly against the CPU, it won't actually pause. Found this out after walking away to grab some water quickly and went from up 6-2 in table tennis to suddenly losing the match.

i remember this one time i threw my controller and it made a dent into a wall while playing baseball, recommended.

.

fun, but very basic and simple. Few things are done very well (billards specifically) but others are quite simple. Definitely worth buying but dont expect truly realistic sports.

Used to really like this game, played it a lot back then, got busy and didn't use my VR set much. However, right now, it refuses to launch in VR mode. Kinda confused why this is happening. It's just windowed and doesn't launch.
