My buddy called me saying a lot more options, faster, and overall better. You can skitch and replay editor is easier to use. Ill be picking it up tomorrow, trading in games cuz I'm fuckin poor.

Stingy ass bastards gave the demo a massive time constraint.

Ive finished it, fucking easy, i was a vet at skate. Got it like 3 days ago here in aus. Replay editor is deeper and you have more options. But the 60 fps is a load of bullshit. Usually stays around 40 fps, but sometimes it glitches down. Im still happy with it, extremely happy.

Thats still pretty good considering movies are 25fps (and pal is 24).
Just bought it.. about to throw it on.

This has no bearing on anything game related.

I got it. Some of the challenges in career mode are pretty hard, which brings back (bad) memories of Tony Hawk. But the bails are fun, and the overall atmosphere of the game is enjoyable. I'll be playing it until Resident Evil 5.
By the way, did you guys know that the RE5 demo comes out on the 360 and PS3 on Monday?

Handplant on the bball net was an ass.

SKATE against Eric and Mike is heeeeellllll.

Agreed, the soundtrack is pretty poor. The skate. soundtrack was great though, i loved those Tommy Guerrero beats as i was skating.

Dam, cant believe totse is gone, but anyway.
Yeah i preorded skate 2, just never had the chance to pick it up. I hope when i go to the gamestop they atleast let me put the 1o dollars I put down on it for the preorder towards it.
I heard it wasnt as good as the first though.
How is the online play? Still same games? Any new ones?

It's pretty damn fun online...Woke up on Sat quite early and played against some Americans...I'm pretty good on the game and most of the freestyle challenges we did were solely down to me </ego>

SKATE against Eric and Mike is heeeeellllll.
From what I've heard, the only way to beat them is with 540s and triple flips. Fucking A.
"BLAOW!" is a motherfucking BITCH.

i know! i gave up on that one after many attempts.
The game is awesome although the off board controls are pretty disgusting, but beats not being able to get up stairs easy.

i picked it up yesterday after reading this thread, its good, but not as good as the first one. Somethings just dont feel right, or look right. Example: My character did a hand plant on a ramp, and his shoulder fell through his shirt.

Finally got it. I find the actual motion, controller responce to be lacking. But online is awsome since you can't just get the multiplier (my old tactic) so it seems more enjoyable.

i have recently played skate 2. its so fucking cool. u go to random places and try to get to special zones, while massacring people on the way. has anyone else played it? what do u think about it? i would definitely recommend it. i played it on xbox 360, and idk what other systems it goes with, but i would assume PS3.

not so much as massacre, but knock them over.

downloaded the demo, and it reminded me of the transition of THPS2/3 to THPS4. In other words, I didn't like it.

This game is really fun for street skating, but it's terrible for vert. Also, any soundtrack with Black Sabbath, Wu Tang, RATM, Motorhead, and Nas is a winner, even if it contains a Dragonforce song.

It fucking sucks how every stray polygon causes you to bail, though.

yeah that really pisses me off too, hopefully they can make an update that will just make them fall over and not you.

Fuck it, has anyone else had their game freeze repeatedly?
I've already beaten the game, and I've only had it for a week, so I'm just going to return it and complain about the freeziness. Gotta love exploiting the refund system.
Now, what game shall I replace it with?
