Review: If it wasn’t for the quite frankly bonkers price tag I think I might well have been recommending ‘Powerboat VR’. While it isn’t really a game, it is more an interactive experience than anything else it does look OK and is fun for a short while. In essence, you are given a powerboat and told to get one with it. With a range of options from adjusting the seat height to the time of day you wish to cruise around a small island, it really is oddly relaxing and satisfying. Sadly only a fool would pay £14.49 for this. If you see this in a sale for a few quid do consider giving it a go, but any more than that will leave you feeling very dissatisfied.
