MP3.

I'm going to be lazy and tell you to look at their scores for the reason why. And not just GameSpot's, either.

MP3 its easily the best MP IMO, the controls are great the boss fights are rediculusly awesome and its jsut an all around good game, but Skate is really good too if you're a fan of real skateboarding. Jeffs review was crap IMO.

u can finish all of mp3 in two rentals or shorter and have much better amount of fun for those limited hours. skate, on the other hand, is a leisurely game thats also fun and is great in that never really ends.

my suggestion: rent mp3 once or twice and have a blast, then buy the game u can have fun with for way way way longer

If you want a fun adventure game, then get MP3 (I'd choose MP3). MP3 so far has been an excellent experience and it's a bit better than Bioshock if you've played that. I guess that's the only way I can describe it to you unless you've played Metroid Prime 1 or 2.

I am extremely impressed with Skate. Its addicting if you get passed the controls (which is in it's own way revolutionary believe it or not), the graphics are top notch and the simple replayability of the game is enough to last you months if your into the gameplay. In fact both Metroid Prime 3 and Skate has literally revolutionary controls which is actually pretty funny.

I am NOT going to say that you should get it over MP3 nor vice versa since theanswer itself dumbs down toif you like your extreme sports overan awesomefirst person adventure?

1. I am not a fanboy. Refer to my sig.

2. Read the Gamespot review, they said that MP3 does nothing new except controls.

No but Skate's control system and realistic feel are fresh and new.

Lets see. Which is more of a rehash?

brand new 3d FPS/Adventure adaptation of a classic side scroller in its 3rd and final installment in a EPISODIC trilogy

or Tony Hawk with a camera behind his ankles.

Yes Skate is better than Tony Hawk but thats like Saying Carbon Monoxide is better than Sonic the Hedgehog (360/PS3) or Mobile Suit Gundam: Crossfire.

Coz I'd rather die than play that again.

there is no such thing as 100% unbiased, even if you own all the systems you are going to have a bias towards one of them, thats just how humans are. and the gamespot review sucked, I know I've played it. The GS review for skate is just as bad though. GS reviews in general have sucked lately.

Wow I can't believe how biased you are. You should be unbiased like me and thoroughly research both Skate and MP3. Because if you knew what you were talking about, you would realise how silly that post was.

geez. i don't expect the last part of a trilogy to have anything to do with the first two.

if you read the GSpot review. I mean really read it.

You'd know its one of the poorest written reviews of a game they have posted.

"great controls, great wii visuals, great puzzles, good boss fights, lengthy and fun" and one word later "no multiplayer, uhh bye 8.5!"

i really think they just don't like the Wii.

I in no way take their reviews seriously, or respect them in anyway.

their reviews all around have been worse than colin mcrae's piloting.

what? too soon?

I own both of them. (techinically my brother owns the 360)

Skate is a good SPORTS game but is in no way shape or form even in Metroid (anything metroid)'s league.

Typical sheep damage control. When WarioWare recieves a 9 then GS is the best site ever but when they disagree with you on MP3then they are "not credible". :lol:

I call it like I see it, the warioware review sucked, it was a pity review after the lozTP fiasco, The MP3 review really was very poorly written. The Skate review is completely off the game should have been at least 8.5 if not 9.0. I know this because I have played these games.GS reviews have just sucked lately, and if you want to go buy GS reviews he should get MP3 anyway because it scored higher, unbiased my butt.

Since you love Gamespot reviews so much that automatically means Metroid is automatically better than Skate.

We all know (Welleveryone but you) that 8.5 is higher than 7.5

Metroid Prime 3 is awesome as expected, but I've played the skate demo about 7 times. I really need to either rent or buy that game.
