Setting up shots can be a bit fiddly as you try to figure out where to stand (the in-game feet position markers are absolutely useless and they point in the wrong direction by 20 degrees for some reason) but you soon get used to it and this mode ends up being genuinely enjoyable and satisfying. I was trying to take down one of the hard AI opponents (for a trophy) and when I finally managed it, I played a pretty good game of pool there.

It takes some getting used to but it eventually clicked for me. Once you’ve figured out the angle of your shot, you can lock it in with and then concentrate on hitting the cue ball with your dominant hand’s controller. Once you get into a pool match (UK, US, three ball and killer rules available), the controllers allow you to manipulate your virtual pool cue in 3D space. That puts you into ‘hulk’ mode (not sure why it is called that) which allows you to move yourself around with more precision (it kind of feels a bit like rowing if that makes sense).Īnother button on the Move controllers will bring up a cue into your hand.

The trick to being in the right place is to hold down the two main buttons on the Move controllers. It is fiddly at first and it gets worse when you start your first game of pool but it does get better. Another button brings up a handheld menu on your non-dominant hand while your other hand can point at the options you want. Teleporting to an activity locks you onto it for actual play (so, for example, if you teleport to one of the air hockey tables, you’ll be in playing position). You move around the bar by pressing a button on the controller to teleport within a circular area but you could chain jumps until you get to any corner of the bar. Coming as it does from Cherry Pop, the makers of Pool Hustle, the main meat of the game is in the pool mode but it also offers darts, air hockey and skeeball, each of which is controlled using the Move controllers. The game is a compendium of traditional-ish bar games. Set in a smart looking sports bar, the game is about meeting new and interesting people and waving your hands at them through the magic of PlayStation VR. Sports Bar VR markets itself as a virtual hangout more than it does as some sort of legitimate sports title.
