 Skate Wins November 10, 2008
Skate has been one of those games that you hear about for a while and get giddy with anticipation the closer it gets to release date. i actually went out and got this game long before i ever had a xbox 360. Being the foundation of a new era of skateboarding, it undoubetdly has its glitches, bugs and improvements. but the smoothness of the gameplay, the many different directions that you can take your own style and trick progression, and not to mention the video editor makes this game worth while. As a skater, i find myself feeling close to the same feeling of landing a hard gap, or a new trick that i've been working on that i would in real life. true it's with my thumbs, but the freedom you have with it is almost limitless. especially when you have an entire city to skate.
If you do choose to buy this game, and have any questions that need to be answered, stop by www.skatethis.net . We're a fan based site, and the communitity is undoubtedly nicer than you would find most of anywhere else. this game is well worth the money. it's a game that you will not forget anytime soon. and a worthy successor to the new skate genre in video games
 Skate disc problem? November 6, 2008
I just bought Skate brand new at Fry's. I played it a few times and it was a lot of fun! But, after a few times of playing, the game would freeze. Does anybody have any idea why this game would freeze? All my other games work fine.
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.
