11 VR Fighting Games That Will Finally Teach You How to Fight
Experts say that the best way to get better at fighting people is to fight more people, but that’s not the lifestyle I’m after. While I love the idea of defeating my enemies in combat, I’m less interested in “getting hit in the mouth” as part of the deal. So I turned to virtual reality.
Based on the 1995 movie ” Virtual Combat “, the battles in the virtual reality underground are brutal and competitive, with an evil AI desperate to enter human reality. Ready for battle (as long as it’s fake), I connected to the mainframe to face the cybervillains from these 11 VR fighting games.
Did any of these games turn me into a modern-day Don “Dragon” Wilson, who plays David Quarry’s troubled hero in Virtual Combat? Oh no. Of course not. But I had fun and learned a few skills that I could probably use in real life combat. Little.
