KillCard - Yeah, I did not mention "Super Hot VR" because I thought it was crap too; a white are were you get time slowed down so that you can shoot red dolls over and over again?!
Arizona Sunshine I have not tried it, yet looked as if it was yet another stand still and shoot very slow zombies game? I will have to try it, yet only after I see a good review!
As for Chronos, yes I will probably get that eventually, is the price worth it? How long is the game?Chronos, is a more traditional game that probably could have been done easily on flat screen but is still employed well in VR imo. The game itself is one of the longer games on the store, I clocked around 12 hours in it on my first playthrough. A very solid 3rd person Action/adventure/RPG style game. Its a screen-by-screen adventure game, as you move from one area to the next the camera snaps to the next room. It's actually a fairly old method of gameplay from the mid 90's employed in games like Alone in the Dark, BioForge, Time Commando, Ecstatica etc.. this made Chronos a wierd pseudo nostalgic but new game that is unlike anything else in VR or in Flat for that matter.
I know its early days yet, yet given the price tag on the Oculus along with the PC boost, I expected better games than "Fruit Ninja" and "Dead Hungry" were you get to stress yourself out on feeding zombies to heavy metal music!
Well, as long as there are people willing to play it, there will always be a market for shooting red people.

You get it here...

Just unzip it in your Google Earth root directory.
Seems everyone has finally grasped my observation, its no biggie, yet seems stupid. I often use this VR store, because I have often just finished getting bored when I want to try something new. Yet am amazed how so many games are getting 5 stars. I grade a bit different, because there are only two games that have earned the right to 5 stars and that is Project Cars and Elite.
Lets face it, if a game does not compare to Elite, then why is it getting 5 stars! If a game gets 1 star its a warning, if 4 stars its a great game and 3 stars is just good or average.
Is there is a way of playing Google Street View, then I would really be thankful for a tip.

I'm not sure if the op is a troll or not.
They are complaining about not being able to see reviews within VR and that 'it's a biggie' having to take your head set off for 30 seconds to read a review before parting with £30!!!! I mean, come on, are you 'really' serious?
i only put my headset on when I want to play a game and it's no 'biggie' keeping it off whilst I look at the oh store. In fact it's not even a minor inconvenience, it's no trouble at all, and to think it is is really picking fault for the sake of picking fault in my opinion.

Personally - I don't see it as trolling. There are 3 different store fronts you can buy through - web, app and VR, and they all have different features (or lack there of - I'm looking at you web!!!). It's quite annoying. First - I'm not always on my VR PC (may be at work etc). If I want to check out games, then I have to use the "lets click and hope and see what we get" store interface on the web. Next, if I am on my VR PC, then I can browse through the app and read reviews. Yay. But - if I want to sort on new releases to see what's new - no - I have to go into VR to do that! Read reviews of those new games - oops, take the headset off! It's a complete mish-mash of features across the 3 platforms. Very annoying!
I understand that it's all still in Beta - but just some consistency across platforms please!

Generally, 99% of Vive stuff should just work on the rift because OpenVR wraps around the oculus sdk. Touch to wand mapping may suck, but it should work.

So is Google Earth a Vive exclusive?
