4.0 out of 5 stars finally, a realistic skate game, January 3, 2009

By

= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Skate It (Video Game)

Pretty cool game, with an innovative control scheme. Leaves the Tony Hawk games far, far behind. You use the touch screen and stylus to make motions on a skate deck icon, which in turn executes tricks on the main screen. This takes some getting use to, and at times can be frustrating, but overall makes for an addictive skate game. It is nice to see a more technical skate game as opposed to the Hawk series, where your skater could crooked grind power lines and then front flip into a manual on the street below.
