I think that this game will definitely change the skateboard-gaming genre to the better

To start of with I would like to say that the old skating-games that we thought were cool actually are beginning to look a bit cheesy after you get some experience in this one. I will make two sections in this review. One about the good stuff in the game, and one about the less good stuff

Good stuff.
At the beginning when I got the game I got very confused. Why am I only using the analog on the controller? But I soon learned that there was no need at all. The flick-it system took all the credit and in this case it's friggin' AWESOME. I love the way that you have too time everything perfectly and the reward you get after landing perfectly. I also enjoy the way that the missions are set up. After you've finished one it doesn't stop there, you can just do whatever you want and until you fell an urge to go complete the game. I bet Tony Hawk is shaking in his pants right now :)

Less good stuff.
There is to much advertising in this game. You cant turn your back without seen some commercial. The graphics' can also sometimes mess with you. AND WHY CAN'T I WALK IN THIS GAME (It would be sooo much easier to get around and more realistic too). The flick-it system has a will of its own when you try to make tech-tricks like the varial heelflip etc. too few famous skaters. And the style of the skater is all the same: one kind of hat, one kind of sweaters etc. We want something more drastic

I give it an 9 cause it's damn good and a revolutionary game
