1.0 out of 5 stars Not impressed at all., November 10, 2000

This lackluster effort from Rockstar is extremely disappointing. The game play is generic, the graphics reek of N64, and above all, this is absolutely nothing like surfing. Instead of concentrating on cutbacks and bottom turns, you spend all of your time collecting buoys in order to gain enough points to advance to the next level. I wish that every set brought the perfect wave and paddling into that wave was effortless. According to this game that is how easy it is. I bought this game in hopes for a somewhat realistic simulation, but I was sadly mistaken. Also, I unlocked all of the levels, surfers, and surfboards in about 4 hours. If any developers read this, please realize that there is a large market for a realistic surfing simulation.

4.0 out of 5 stars I guess it is a hit or miss thing... it's a HIT for me, March 16, 2001

I guess some people (well pretty near everyone who played this) don't like the game... I have to agree with the 2 or 3 people that actually said it was good. I think that if you never surf you probably won't like it. The controls are shady but you can get used to them... and it sucks that the little board isn't included... but if you like to go to surfing to just kick back and you don't get all competitive about it then I think you will like it. There is a nice camera angle that really shows off the wave and the water looks really nice too... makes you wish you were out surfing right now... it is especially good on winter days when you are missing the 90 degree weather and the beach. There are some levels in Hawaii have that *MINT* water that is the clean tradition turquoise color. Anyways I think that people who surf will like it.
