There is sports scramble which is like wii sports. It has baseball, tennis and bowling. Its pretty fun
Sports Scramble on Oculus Quest | Oculus

There is totally baseball which looks like more of an arcade game from what it looks like. I dont have this one tho

TOTALLY BASEBALL on Oculus Quest | Oculus

I got Totally Baseball (And Sports Scramble fwiw). From what i can tell, Sports Scramble is done, i dont think any more updates are comin out for it. It's a fun mini-game type of deal from what i remember

Totally Baseball is a fun game between the pitching/catching (:whoa:). Batting isn't a strong suit as the cpu pitching seems to just pitch fast or slow but it's sound. Avatars kinda look like wii sports tho
What is this connect to your computer and use your gpu?

what do I need for this :lupe:

I know you can connect via airplay, but alternatively you can download the Virtual Desktop app on the Quest and Virtual Desktop Streamer App on your PC. I believe the former only works for Oculus games, but if you're like me and come from PC VR, Virtual Desktop will let you play those SteamVR games with a little added latency. Alternatively, if you got a longass USB-C cable, you can plug the oculus in that way and play.

Bought that Parkour game (Stride) over black friday, gotta give that a shot. Was really hoping there'd be a sale on space pirate, eleven, or beat saber. Might have to stop being stubborn and just cop at full price since i never see them by themselves on sale.

i got Virtual Desktop and have only used it a couple of times.
i like the theater app where you can hop in and out of public theaters with random people.
the one time i used it there were like 4 or 5 other people in it and the host had Google Earth on the movie screen which was his PC screen.
everyone was saying where they were from and the host would zoom in to it.
it was very dope.

but to be honest, Airlink really fills all my PCVR wireless needs.
maybe i'm missing something and VD does things that AL doesn't?

when i had originally tried out AirLink, it was slow/laggy (could just be my GPU bottlenecking tbh) and i had much better results doing VD. Also, i had a decent little collection of games on SteamVR and i didnt run into any issues using that and VD. Might see if i can do tetris effect from XGP on virtual desktop since it always prompts me about VR Capabilities.

i was having connection issues here and there when i first got it but AirLink was greatly improved with update 32 or 33. 35 just dropped.
if you haven't tried AirLink in a while, it's damn near flawless for me now.
one thing you gotta give the Oculus Devs credit for is the constant updates that improve the UI and overall performance of the hardware.
they are not quite Steam status, that shyt updates every fukking time. and god forbid i haven't opened it for a couple weeks...

just went and tried that shyt again. :whoo: played my pcvr beat saber and that shyt was buttery! tried to play something off steamvr (eleven) and it needed some updates. might go back to that later.

Passthrough is weird as shyt in airlink tho, so heed of warning for that. i got superhot and beat saber on oculus PC so you saved me a grip on double dipping for the moment. dap+rep inc

Maybe a dumb question but people talk about beat saber all the time but do they have hip hop or just a bunch of white songs?

lotta white songs but the modding community is very strong so you'll have a lil better luck there. at least on PCVR its a lot easier to mod, not sure about quest-only. Can search and download songs in the game :wow:

I just need a better rig on my quest so that im not using the default shytty ass sound. Really wish they still had the earflaps from the CV1 on this thing
