    The head aiming system works well at least, but overall it's the definition of unnecessary.

    Super Stardust Ultra VR does everything that had made the series work before and expands on it with a new cockpit view. This really brings the action close to you and sucks you in like never before.

    If you are looking for a more than competent twinstick-shooter for your VR headset, this is it. Plus you’ll get the new VR level which turns out to be a BattleZone light. Not too shabby.

    Super Stardust Ultra VR brings a luke warm side dish that was nuked in the microwave to the table.

    The new mode is unnecessary and strips away the very elements of gameplay that make Super Stardust so good in the first place.

    Decent - if limited - fun. [Issue#180, p.47]

    Super Stardust will always be an outstanding arcade game, but this particular version is a tired attempt at repurposing an ageing experience for yet another PlayStation platform. The classic gameplay options function fine in virtual reality but offer nothing new, while the added PlayStation VR-exclusive Invasion Mode fails to grasp what's great about the original experience.
