As you have noticed, the Tony Hawk series of games has slowly gone from pure skateboarding fun to more gimmicky ideas like those jackass-inspired objectives where you have to ride a shopping cart down alcatraz or killing a shark by grinding on this giant slingshot. Tony Hawk American Sk8land, however, goes back to its pure skateboarding roots.

The first thing you'll probably notice is the new 'cartoon' look it has. This is to stop people comparing the console versions with the DS versions. The other thing you'll notice is how smooth the game is. It is just as smooth as the console versions. There is a slight problem with this though. The draw distance is ok for the environment around you, but objects that you have to collect only appear when you're really close.

There are two main modes in Tony Hawk's American Sk8land, Story mode and Classic mode.

Story mode is a mode you should finish very quickly. In Story mode you meet Tony Hawk and rebuild an old skatepark.

Classic mode is the mode that reminds you of the old Tony Hawk games. In Classic mode you have to to the old fashiond objectives like collect
S-K-A-T-E and get high scores and find the secret tape.

The Wi-Fi on this game is decent. You can play multiplayer and download new goals for story mode and stuff.

In my opinion, Tony Hawk's American Sk8land is a very good game and I think you should buy it.

Thank you for your time.
