'VR Sports Powerboat Racing'
[PC / PS1] [UK] [MAGAZINE] [1998]
"Good grief this takes the term “bad” to completely new and previously uncharted territory. What went wrong? After the stunning mediocrity of Sony's Rapid Racer I was half expecting VR Sports to learn from their mistakes. But oh no… this is worse. The graphics are atrocious. The wibbly-wobbly water tosses your inadequate-looking boat this way and that as you cruise through the terrain admiring the scenery. Or you could if the camera wasn't set in such a way that you feel like you're leaning backward and staring at the sky. The screen is made up of one quarter watery "track" and three quarters wild blue yonder. Also, this thing takes pop-up to a whole new level. Important areas of “track” are absent from view until you're right on top of them. So how am I supposed to see where I'm going? I'm staring at the sky and half the stuff is invisible until the last minute. D'oh. As far as gameplay goes, forget it. It may have nine courses and 16 different boats, but the "unique handling characteristics" mean that things vary from barely controllable to completely uncontrollable. The courses are all filled with Wave Race-style “jumps” — clearly put in to spice up the otherwise boring action—but these just make controlling your progress even more difficult. The bottom line? It sucketh. Monumentally." ~John Davidson, Electronic Gaming Monthly
