Good job Shi, Needs a longer video though.

Nice that you managed to record on a hole in one

 

[ShiWarrior]

Yep, I just hit record then replayed the shot

 

[Ravenger]

That's a neat idea!

 

[ShiWarrior]

Thanks Rav
Sorry I was just showing off

 

[JoeBoi]

Nice shot Shi!

Has anyone played ForeVR Bowl? Multiplayer but only 4 player. Looks quite good and is currently on offer.

I've got it. It looks pretty good, but it feels slightly janky compared to Walkabout - the MP ball movement is a bit jerky. I also had loads of hassle trying to get into a MP game with my Wife. It's nowhere as easy as with Walkabout.
Also it has loads of special ability balls which make it less 'pure' of a bowling game.

That's a shame, looked like it could be good. I doubt much could take Walkabout off the top tbh. It is such a good multiplayer game.

I wouldn't say it's bad - it's actually pretty good, but it's not as accessible as Walkabout. I haven't really tried it with anyone other than my wife, and that was frustrating as she's not a gamer and I had to spend loads of time trying to talk her through the steps to get into a game.

She had very few issues with walkabout by comparison.

Easily. Played rugby yesterday and now my back and neck are on fire . Not too mention a few beers. Today we had a touring team at the minis training and they enjoyed themselves at the bar after too, and bought me a few too, I'm going to be absolutely hanging tomorrow.

 

[JoeBoi]

I'm good for tomorrow evening

 

[melmac]

I should be around this evening!!

I should be there today. Not as hungover as I thought I'd feel, and whilst my back and neck are bad, moving helps them from stiffening up too much!

It was a ton of fun, great game (we lost, but we scored a few tries, and they were a nice bunch).
