Time to find out what all the fuss is about.

do tell your opinions of it if you play it before i do

Well, the controls are interesting but also rather complicated. What killed the experience for me though was the camera angle. It’s too low and can often mess you up while doing spin tricks. Since both analog sticks are used for tricks, you really can’t control the camera.

no camera control? at all?

Feels alot more realistic than THPS does, and thats either a good thing or a bad thing depending on your flavor. The controls on Skate will definitely take a a little time to get use to, but I like it overall..maybe a solid rental at best.

Been skatin 4 11 years ive been lovin thps all my life but i dont get into points i like to try to skate realistic how skatin should be. I love this skate game i can absolutly kill it. This right here is ground breaking, the controls mimic exactly what u do wit your feet and when u grind u slow down instead of speed up. If u dont like it it means u dont like skatin i dont think ive played much with this much realness, i can absolutly kill this game and skaters r gonna love it and should embrace it so the nerds dont get there way and revert it back to fuckin specials. I can finaly kickflip out of grinds without launching ten metres. Reality is more amazing than bullshit
