This game is fantastic! I got to demo the HTC Vive at a local gaming event where someone brought one to show off, and when I got a turn he fired up this game and handed me the controllers. It was an absolute blast to play for the 5 minutes or so that I had to play it. I was so impressed with the experience that two weeks later I have my own Vive and this was my first purchase for it. I play it every day at least a few games. It's a decent workout for a video game...especially if you go dual weapons and no shields and try to dodge all the lasers (which is incredibly fun to do). Runs smoothly on both my desktop and laptop at 1x sampling with everything off (desktop is an R9 290X and laptop is a GTX 1060), but turning them up starts to cause stuttering.

The weapon selection is great, and even playing entirely with unconventional weapons like the grenade launcher can be a fun challenge. It's not a super deep gameplay experience, it's just your good old arcade wave shooter, but in VR, and really that's all I want from it. It's fun to beat your high scores and change up your play style.
