This game ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I bought this game at noon and played it 4 like 8hrs. it's AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you ever buy a DS, get this GAME! some people think the cartoon style is lame but it adds a good edge to the game to make it an instant hit. I chose it over mario-kart because it's way better. Some of the best features in the game are the customization, u get to draw ur own graffiti and even make ur own deck. there's so many trick in this game so you never get bored. the levels are also very expansive and you could play 1 level for about an hour and not see every part of it. the story part of the game focuses on you building a skatepark with some help from pros and a cartoonist named Mindy. to get the money 4 the park u have to perform various tricks 4 the locals, most of the tricks are fairly easy but they get harder as u play. so far i think this is the best DS game made. the classic mode of the game is harder than story mode but if ur used to the Tony Hawk series it wont be difficult. the most fun things to do while skating around are skitching(getting pulled by cars) and doing graffiti round L.A. this game also adds a playlist(the first one on DS) so you can pick which songs to play, my favorite song on the playlist is Holiday by Green Day. THIS GAME IS DA BOMB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! G-UNIT, SHADY, AFTERMATH, ORC, KANYE WEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
