The games are simple, but entertaining. The bike offers a lot for a fairly low price which is great considering how much you already spent on the compatible headset. The only thing I can really think to complain about is that none of the games really have a sense of momentum (except when flying on the pegasus). One part of riding on my real bike that I really enjoy is pushing myself super hard and simply riding past other riders without touching my pedals. I like the feeling of speed that carries me forwards. Instead on this I feel like I'm 100% of the time going up hill. If I stop pedaling I stop moving. That doesn't feel right to me, but you know what? If I want a better feeling game, I can make one, because their Unity compatible SDK is openly available on their website.

It's pretty on the rift, but I wish it didn't make me so gorram sick. The blurred vision, the screaming alarms, I couldn't play more than 15 minutes and with hundreds of hours logged in VR between the Vive and Gear VR, this is the first time I've felt sick while playing a VR game. I'll try to come back to the game as it looks like it'll be fun to play, but the locomotion and effects designed to make you feel like you're in trouble.. Not so good.

Absolutely amazing. On the surface, it's a collection of demos made by Valve employees as a way to show off some best use case scenarios for the Vive and VR in general. However, it's so devilishly cohesive with a delightful amount of classic Portal wit, I spent 2 hours in it the first time I tried it and I /still/ haven't found everything. The catapult game has various cores you need to calibrate with many of the enthusiastic and emotional cores being voiced by Justin Roiland (of Rick and Morty fame). I've now got a hankering to build a couple cores in real life. The Spider Core and Snuggle Core's have a special place in my heart.

I've only played a little over 8 hours so far and I'm simply floored by how cool this game is. The game's Minecraft like take on spaceflight and spaceship/station building is simply fantastic. While my current ship building ability is akin to a 3 year old drawing on the wall with crayons, I'm simply in love with the full gamut of things available to build with. Looking on Youtube you can find users who've built fleets of Titan class ships that look absolutely gorgeous and wonderfully showcase what this game can let you build.

The first ship I built was simply a small cube. It was hideous, but after a run in with a pirate station (which chased me for a fairly long ways) I had to rebuild. I landed on a planet and mined the only thing I could see: lava. I wondered what I could do with lava and found out that while it's useless for crafting, it makes a seriously bright ship. So I built a ship out of lava. After watching some videos on youtube I realized that I'd just wasted a significant amount of time doing nothing, and I built a better ship purely for mining. It's ugly as sin, but it can demolish an asteroid in about 2 minutes, so I'm happy with it for the time being. After I mine a bit more I'm going to dive into crafting, then I'll make a really big ship. (Currently mine doesn't have an inside) I'm also hoping that (since I know how to use Photoshop) I can possibly contribute to some of the texture packs on http://starmadedock.net

So far I haven't recommended any game to my friends as much as I have this one. I already bought the 4 license pack and hope the developers keep on chugging away on this, it has so much potential.
