Review: ‘Pickup Basketball VR’ is a pretty typical virtual basketball microgame. Hoops win points here, but you do get to do it in a handful of environments like a playground, a gym and even on top of a skyrise building, but its all for nothing really as it doesn’t add anything to the gameplay itself. Talking fo the gameplay it does feel pretty good and responsive which is a good start. You can also bounce and dribble the ball a little bit, but once again there really isn’t a lot of point in doing this. Unless you are going to fully utilize the multiplayer elements of this game there is no way you will get your money’s worth here, but if you hit the multiplayer modes you should get in enough gameplay hours to justify it. It’s not a terrible game at all, but its just so…meh!
