Pros
Pro Well-balanced sim-cadey handling
Handling a car in Autosport is both streamlined and forgiving enough to make it approachable, yet complicated enough to give players a bit of a challenge. The game also avoids the issue GRID 2 had of having the same one-size-fits-all steering.
Pro Detailed damage model
In addition to traditional bumps, hits and crashes that will damage the car and make it more difficult to drive in way that depends on the damaged part, there's also wear and tear to worry about. For example, over-revving and shifting early will wear the gearbox quicker and late breaking will damage the brakes.
Pro Has a good variety of game types
Autosport has 5 game types - Touring, Endurance, Open Wheel, Tuner, and Street with additional game modes available through DLC. Each type has a different handling model and different cars.
Pro No VR sickness
Since the player and the character are stationary with the vehicle creating a frame of reference, much of the issues with motion sickness are avoided.
Pro A truly well done first person VR shooter
Robo Recall is an expertly executed game. You play as a "Recaller," trained in recalling malfunctioning products (namely, robots). You can do all sorts of fun things in the game, which range from blasting tons of robots into oblivion, to deflecting their shots with your weapons, and you can even pull their bullets right out of the air and throw them back.
There are plenty of great things to explore; perhaps you want to tear a robot's arms off and use them as swords, or maybe you want to hold one hostage and use him as a shield.
Robo Recall allows you to do all of these things, and much more.
Pro The weapons in the game look and feel powerful
There's a total of 4 weapons in Robo Recall: the pistol, the revolver, the shotgun, and the plasma rifle. Each weapon has its own unique strengths and weaknesses, which you can further amplify thanks to an (albeit small) assortment of attachments for each of them.
The weapons look great and feel satisfying to use. The shotgun was particularly well executed, and is largely considered a favorite.
Pro No motion sickness thanks to teleportation-style movement
Many VR games give players an issue with motion sickness. If you haven't played long enough to acquire your "VR legs" then you can get nautious and dizzy relatively easily. Robo Recall circumvents that with movement via teleporting, which means you can play all day with no drawbacks.
Pro One of the best games to introduce new players to VR
Robo Recall is incredible for new players. The opening sequence features a mini jump scare that will serve as a testament to what they're about to experience. The first level of the game will be absolutely mind blowing for the vast majority of players.
Cons
Con Uneven graphical fidelity
Some textures are considerably higher quality than others. For example, the cockpit is really low-res, so much so that the needles don't even move, giving a feeling of an unpolished product.
Con Menus are not in VR, so you have to take off the Rift after each race

Con VR support is experimental
