A VR pod racing game would be insane.

Closest one is Redout VR and racing with the Sulha

💯 percent!! Redout is an amazing game, although the controls are very touchy.

The sense of speed and level variety are insane. I also agree with the thoughts of someone else: they would micro trans thus game to hell and back.

It's a racing game where you handle the vehicles like airplanes. I wouldn't call it touchy, but definitely unique and not something you'd see often.

Does it let you hold the controllers like the throttles on the pods? If no, then I demand a recount.

Given that you handle the vehicles like airplanes, if you grab to joysticks and calibrate them, it should work (something I really want to do

I say GRIP: Racing also counts (if you have flying vehicles)

GRIP definitely would work, but the speed is not identical of that of Redout

Mach 1 would say otherwise

I mean yeah, but how often do you reach Mach 1 in grip versus in Redout

I heard people race drones wearing VR headsets and it apparently feels like you are podracing.

If you enjoy this kinda game I would recommend DCL - the game. Really great simulation of FPV drone racing gameplay!

Imagine hooking your speedometer up to a fan so it blasts your face harder at you go faster like that one snow racing arcade game.

It's crazy how much money Disney is leaving on the table.

Why is no one but Lego making a Star Wars story based game based on the movies??

don't forget fans doing their own total conversion mods for games like Jedi Knight Jedi Academy. Movie Duels 2 or, when it was a thing, Knights of the Force come to mind basically offering every bigger duel atleast and even some other sequences like the battle of geonosis.

Minimal requirements: Midichlorian count of at least 7,000/cell

Otherwise, the game is going to... Crash.
