When I saw this in the store I couldn't resist. Trust me, this game is not as cool as it looks on the back of the cd case but for the price, like i said I couldn't resist. I was as anxious as a nun in a cucumber patch to see if the graphics were really as good as they looked on the case. Yes and no. The graphics would be great if it wasn't for this crappy frame rate. At first I thought I would hate this game but then 2 thing factored in. 1. It's actually kinda fun even though the trick system is not controlled by the player but the computer. and 2. u get what u paid for. BTW, I really think the music is great in this game. If your into fast action arcade games like blitz, tony hawk, CTR, and coolboaders 3, u might wanna pick this game up just for the price alone...

Alright, to break it down, i am an avid wakeboarder, compete, i live it, breath it, all that stuff. when i heard about a wakeboading video game, i was stoked. i ordered it right away. then, this came in the mail, i popped it in, and in about 10 minutes, took it out. it is cool how realistic the tricks are, but there is no point to the game, it takes about 10 minutes to beat it. if i was on the team that created this game, i would nix the idea of making a Burstrick W-Boarding 2, because that would just be digging a deeper hole. If i could do it again, i would have waited for big air to come out for pc, but, oh well, dont buy this game

Graphically this is nothing special, but, once past that it is quite a good, fun, addicting game. We played it one day. Then played it the next day. Then played it again. Every time we played, we seemed to get better and it is really a fun and somewhat difficult game. Compared to the ps2 wakeboading game this is actually better in my opinion. Even thou the graphics are not as cool, it has serious potential. The only real problem is that when you start to get good, it's almost too repetitious. If your a fan of arcade style games that you can swap off with a partner then this is good game for group play with little frustration and a good competitive game. I was surprised that Natsume created it, it almost seems nothing like a Natsume type game. Stick with it and you'll be jumping over mountain edges,off the ramps, in no time.

The thing that made me buy this game is the price you pay for it.
My freinds thought it was awsome I beat it in like 5 miniutes.My point is dont buy this game its not at all like tony hawks pro skater 1or2.The computer tells you what to do and it dishes out the moves for you its like that sorry sky diving game.Lke I said dont buy this game.

I had to try this one... I mean how can you pass up ANY Playstation game..., let alone one that is based on our favorite sport. Let me start off by saying that there is a reason that this game is ... there just isn't that much to it. After sitting down for 1/2 hour at lunch I had already completed the whole game. I am not telling you not to buy this one... in fact, I'm saying buy it. It is worth the $. The tricks are sick and they are even pretty realistic. The game really reminds me of the early Coolboarders games. How could they make it better? Burstrick definitely needs a better soundtrack, give us pro rider selection, real boards to choose from, and maybe let you tour to certain hotspots like Shasta, Canyon Lake, Lake Powell, & OWC. I'm hoping for a few of these options from Shaun Murray's ActiVision game due out this summer. Oh yeah...could you tell that the rider on the cover is aVR version of Gregg Necrasson ridin' his Trip? Man, I'm a geek... I need to get on the lake!
