Must have for quest owners

Great vr content

TennisHam ,

Ruff Talk VR

This was a first-time experience for me. I do not recall listening to a podcast before. This was an interesting description of tennis by two well-informed observers. I have previously played tennis, and have watched tennis on
TV, and this podcast presented an accurate review of tennis and made the game as available on VR seem like a viable alternative. The price appears reasonable. A fair description of s VR game.

FastShoes ,

Great Oculus Quest 2 coverage!

A fun podcast where a father and son team up to discuss and review a variety of games on the Oculus Quest 2. The easy banter, deep insight and common opinions they share between each other just goes to show how close a father can be to his son. Do I think you'll love the show? 100%
