Skate 2 (PS3) Reviews

I have this on the Xbox360 not PS3! Skate 2 is the first game in the Skate series that I have played, and I must say, that it is a breath of fresh air in the skateboarding genre. I was sick to death of having to pull off 100000 point combo's in the Tony Hawks series, and when I saw this, I just had to buy it! The graphics are ...  Read the complete review

Firstly, I would say that this product is mainly aimed at skateboarders. If you do not skate then this MAY not be for you. If you like realism in games and/or you skateboard; then this game is definately for you. The revolutionary FlickIt system is near perfect control for the game. You want to ollie push down on the analog stick, and push up; ...  Read the complete review

NOTE: I have only experienced Skate 2 for the Xbox 360. Like its prequel, Skate 2 offers a chilled out approach to the skateboarding genre, unlike the more hectic Tony Hawks series which offers extremely unrealistic tasks. It is, like Skate, a easy game to play with some challenging but realistic tasks. It has kept the amazing Flickit ...  Read the complete review

I have owned Skate 2 for a few weeks now, having bought it off amazon for a pretty decent price. I'm going to go through the good and bad points of the game, and hopefully you'll be able to see if it's the right game for you. First off, I would like to recommend you download the demo of Skate 2 off the PSN Store (free to download). ...  Read the complete review

Skate 2 obviously succeeds Skate 1 or just Skate and has been developed by the same people at EA Black Box. The first game certainly was intuitive in the control section as I found that the single most fun and addicting thing to do when the first games demo came out as it was so fun and amazing seeing the skater on screen kick flipping and ...  Read the complete review

The sequel to Skate was always going to be released due to the popularity it got, mainly due to the innovative Flickit control system. Everyone was pleased to have another choice other than the Tony Hawks series. Probably the biggest new feature is being able to move objects around, such as kickers, ledges, rails and ramps to fit your ...  Read the complete review

Skate 2 - Playstation 3 Skate 2 is an amazing skateboarding game. The concept is very similar to skate. You still skate around a city on your skateboard, doing tricks and challenging pros. The FlickIT system still needs a brand new control pad when trying to pull off some of the more complicated flip tricks. The difference ...  Read the complete review

{SKATE 2 REVIEW: } ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ INTRO: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This game followed on from skate (the first one) but with a lot more features. Skate was my favourite game but skate 2 hit me by suprise. I bought this game on the online store of game for 40 pounds which was a bit of a rip off but it ...  Read the complete review

The original Skate suprised us all. With growing up loving the Tony Hawk's series (didn't have a lot of choice), and then Skate 1 bringing the stick control system really sprung some new life into the genre. However, with Skate 2 coming out so soon after, all that new factor is gone. With sequals, the standard is better graphics, new ...  Read the complete review

I hadn't played the first Skate, only the demo, so i took a bit of a risk buying Skate 2, but the risk certainly payed off! Its great, a must buy for anyone who owns a PS3. The story mode starts off quite easy, which is good for beginners to learn the moves, and experianced players should fly through the start, quickly getting to the more ...  Read the complete review

I loved the first Skate, so when I heard they were making a second, natrually I was very happy. Unfortunatly though Skate 2 did not live up completely to my expectations. Again it is a very relaxed and easy game to play which is what I loved about the first one and the flickit controls make the game all the more special. There are new tricks ...  Read the complete review
