    Default skate 2

    skate 2 is an awesome game, just got it yesterday.
    It plays much like the first, but the online is much better. It's easier to get into and offers a lot of activities.

    The off-board is very sluggish, but you'll be skating most of the time. It's useful to be able to get off of your board to walk up those damn stairs.

    Anyways, send on your gamertags if you have skate 2 and are playing it. I want to join up with you guys. List will be updated here.

    Yes, the off the board feature is extremely sluggish.

    maybe worth a rental but just stick with the original Skate.

    rant done.
    Wow dude, you just compared Golfing and Hockey to walking in a Skateboarding game.




    It's completely fine to walk in a Skateboarding game. You use that feature to get to certain places, places on a skateboard can't be reached. It's also done in RL, so....

    Yeah, I was trading in shit at Ebgames(same shit as gamestop) and found out I needed ID and shit. Had to get my brother to come down to trade in games =/


    Yes, the walking is pretty bad but it shouldn't put you off too much, if at all. It's better than not being able to get off of your board. There's much to be desired, but I like that it actually looks like your using the stairs, instead of floating on them while performing a running animation.

    Haha yeah, the new Mega ramp is pretty fun.

    Tho i think i like the old one a bit better.

    The little fun track thing along with it tho, is a plus.

    I didn't find the off-board too 'sluggish', but I never went off-board very long in the demo. It's definitely better than not having it at all since you can get up stairs and re-arrange things to make a better skating environment.

    Hey, isn't there a deal for PS3 users at Gamestop?

    Trade in 2 used games, and get 1 free, or something like that? Is it still going on?

    I keep playing the demo. I love all of the new shit, but the walking can get annoying, but it's useful.
    I'm thinking about trading in the original and LittleBigPlanet (if this 'no one to play with' thing continues)

    Eh, playing Skate online isn't that much of a problem. It's more of a problem with LBP, which is funny.
