Description: From a fusion of the neon blues and pinks of the 80s and the technological marvels of the future, a new extreme sport has emerged: Arc Surfer. Compete against your friends and online opponents by riding rails through immersive Virtual Reality tracks. Maximize your style points in a set period of time to win! To become superstars, the next generation of athletes have to master the Arc Board™, a hoverboard that allows perfect control at high speeds. Are you ready to surf the spark in Arc Surfer?
Review: Arc Surfer is a sci-fi/neon world hoverboard skate game in which you need to get from point A to B and grind on boards as much as you can. While the multiplayer is as dead as they come there are a few tracks to play in the single-player mode. But it is the control system that will cause the most problems with this game as it does require some getting used to. You lean and psychically jump around the course rather than using anything on your motion controllers and that leads to a lack of haptic feedback. It does have some good potential I suppose, but for now, I would only pay a quid or to for this as anything more will leave you feeling ripped-off.
