Okay, so first off I have to state the fact that the original Skate blew my mind!!! I was very happy with the game and played it for hours on end and even went through it about 4 times. So I'm well versed in the controls which you really need to be to get the most out of this game. I mean, most people will think this game is pretty hard at first because the controls are quite different than the THPS series and it's not just about hitting buttons real quick, it's about doing things that flow and that work together. Here's the breakdown:

Gameplay: Just when I thought the gameplay couldn't get any better, Skate 2 drops and slaps me in the face with some nice tweaks across the board. I love the new moves they added and the framerate has been silky smooth which just adds to realism and flow of the game.

Graphics: Same as last game (which isn't a bad thing) but with some damage modeling now which is a nice touch especially after a big spill.

Audio: There is some really funny stuff in here dialogue-wise and the skate noises are spot on like usual.

Overall this is a great game. You can now move stuff around too to make new spots or add to spots. It all adds up to a great experience. If you played the first one and like it, you need to play this one for sure it's worth it.
