 Amazing. Must Get. September 28, 2008
skate is an AMAZING game. Tony Hawk and other games are NOWHERE near as good. Sure, the flickit controls take some time to get used to, but is extremely rewarding. Hitting a good line feels like an accomplishment you can be proud of. Even after beating the game, i still have a blast just skating around and hitting anywhere that looks good. You can play the game for hours and still find places you've never been to, and you can stay in one small area for hours on end and still have fun. Get this game, it'll change how you play.
Best skateboarding game so far September 13, 2008
This game is great for a number of reasons. It has great graphics, is very realistic (at least more so that tony hawk), and has an incredible amount of replay value. I have beaten the game 4 times already, and I still enjoy going back and just skating.
Not only for real skaters July 7, 2008
This is the new revolution to skater games no more button mashing. This game is realistic but not too hard. Tony Hawk dosent have nothin on this game. It beats it in graphics and keeps you intrested. If you dig skating like I do then realistic plays a big part in this game. Your not flying everywhere like a monkey but you can still get so air.
skate. June 6, 2008
"skate." A fitting title. No obnoxious cartoonish tricks or gameplay. The best approach to a skateboarding game to date.
Let's start with saying it's about as realistic as you could possibly want a video game. If it were any more it probably wouldn't even be fun to play, (For instance, you're cruising down the street looking for a nice spot, and forget to ollie up the curb to the side walk, you're in for a faceplant.) But as far as that goes, it's perfect.
There is no "Grind button", no "Ollie button" ect., you actually control the board. Which makes grinding just as much about the line you take at it, than hitting the grind you want. Making a 360 flip down a set something you can actually appreciate, or a blunt on anything great. I know this game came out a long time ago, I just got tired of paying 50-60 bucks for a video game, but I will tell you unlike many games you buy just to regret and would have rather have that money in your pocket, that thought won't cross your mind.
Skate is amazing April 30, 2008
Skate is by far the best skate board game i have played. I recently got Xbox 360 and the games graphics are unbeleivable. The game is extremely realistic with actually having to set up for tricks and rails, and jumping curves. It has a large variety to skate and things like staying away from security guards. The live version is good to with being able to free skate and competitions. Skate is ten times better than Tony Hawks Pro Skater because that game is unrealistic where you just hit x to do a trick. Skate you actually move the joy stick to do a rotation. Its a great game and i recommend it.
