Synth Riders review: Pure VR joy!

If you're into VR and Dance Gaming, you'll like Synth Riders and this review. This PC VR experience takes you to the 80's and 90's in synth-style. As a fitness tool, you'll be amazed by how quickly you can sweat to the music!

Dancing in VR is the visual analogue of singing in the shower. In your mind, you’re Fred Astaire, gracefully gliding about the dance floor. To those watching, you’re an insane person, spastically swatting at ephemera only you can see.

Now, this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. At parties, such public humiliation is all part of the fun. And alone, well, there’s nobody around to watch you make a fool of yourself.

In my previous video I talked about “BoxVR”, another rhythm music title that I use as part of my nightly exercise routine and, while Synth Riders is also a rhythm music title, its feel is completely different. What does that mean?
