skate it has an amazing range of tricks and has good range of skate parks but lacks playable time on career mode.
the great thing about skate it is his has a great range of combo's and trick. even if you play for many hours you can always find a combo of your choice. One of the coolest combos would be a flip trick to grind or a back/front flip 1 footed grab.
the controls are prety simple but yet it can be a bit hard to learn what direction to flick the remote for which flip trick you do. but once you get used to the controls it is very basic to do the trick you want.
multiplayer mode is prety dissapointing due to having to swap remote from one person to another where as in other games you can all skate at the same time. the modes are pretty good because they range in different styles of game play. e.g you have every thing from best trick and who can get the biggest hospital bill. i think they went over the top with the hall of meat mode in multiplayer because you see who can break the most bones and who can get the biggest bill but others think its kinda amusing.
personaly i think they stuffed it up with the skaters in the game. basicaly i am realy into skaters and the only 2 of them i know is danny way and jake brown. i think they should have added in more famous skates such as ryan sheckler and rodney mullen. i also think they should have spent more time on the graphics for the skaters. because if you look at jake brown and danny way and many others look eather fatter or older than they realy are.
i think they did a prety good job with the my spot zone. the my spot zone is a area where you can move ramps and rail and other objects to turn it into your own style. i think it would be good if you could use my spot zone in more area's.
one more thing in the game is called hall of meat. hall of meat is where if you have a nasty fall it will come up with a pop up called hall of meat. it will show a diagram of a skeleton and if a bone on it is blue it is fine, if it is green it is bruised, if it is yellow it is sprained and if it is red it is broken.
another good feature is the camera man. he follows you everywhere and says stuff when you do somthing cool or if you stack. he can be quite amusing to listen to because alot of the things he says are funny but sometimes he repeats phrases he has already said recently.
overall this is a very adicting and very fun for people who love to skate. but may be abit disappointing if you want to play as your favourite skaters. but i do highly recomend this game for skateboard lovers everywhere.
