I have been playing tony hawk since the 64. I love the game but it just can not compare to skate. All motions of the board are used with the analog sticks instead of hiting a certain button. It also is realisitc in the sense that you can't hold a trick forever. Although it was fun where you could just spend 10 minutes breaking out a awesome combo, this game has the reality feel to it. The graphics aren't what they could be but they pretty good for the first of the series. I think the hall of meat is pretty fun just to mess around with. One of the funnest things to me is just to go really fast right in to a car and see how sweet you can make your guy bail. I also like how they have the thumbstick layout for tricks. It makes it seem like your spinning the board with the stick and feels a lot more real. Multiplayer online is pretty fun too. You can either freeskate with your friends or you can do trick or death race contests and see who the better skater is.

The only problem I think this game has is the camera angle. It looks like someone is following and taping you like an actual skating video. Its kind of distracting and hard to time your tricks but when you play it enough to get use to it, this game is very fun.
