Good skating gameJun 03, 2010 I'm not an elite player, but it is a pretty cool game. I usually play a couple of hours after work. If you are the consumate gamer, I heard you can run through it pretty quick.
So I would recommend it to someone that is the moonlight gamer, get in from work, grab a beer and just skate! I like how you can decide on what direction you want skater to go. Pro, Park Builder, Street or whatever, it can keep you busy!
20% Less Sugar PleaseMar 11, 2010 Ok the game is fun if you just want to mindlessly want to pull off a 540 360 hardflip to nosebluntslide to 900 ollie to pogo to primo to 500000000 ft nose manual to pivot switch manual to land. Yay it was 6,000 points! on the other hand it has some of my favorite skaters though like. Arto Saari. but if you want to play something more realistic and challenging play Skate 2.
ehhhJun 25, 2009 the game is cool but it there's couple of things from making it a real hit. graphics are good tricks are good but some are like out of this world tricks stuff that cant be perform ....EVER..
this game is awesome!!!!!!May 29, 2009 this game had me playing for hours on end. It doesn't even need the t rating. It was fun, entertaining, and had a great story line. An imersive story line, one time I played for an hour and didn't even know it. A very long story, if you combine the time I was playing it would have been playing for days and I don't even know if I'm half way done,but a great game.
It was worth the $15 I spent new from Amazon, Would not spend more on it thoughMar 30, 2009 If you know tony hawk then you know that he is a sellout and releases TH brand games piratically every year, he changed the direction in this game. There are a lot of skate videos in it and you can choose what kind of skater you want to be. The game does not have a lot of goals, the character creator is really limited and the load time is appalling at times. It is worth the $15 new price even though amazon is sold out of them now and the next best price new is like $24. If you like TH games and you can get this for $15 then I would recommend it.
