skate 2

[Rossy Boy]

You get a time limit to start off with, but every now and then it gets extended, when you do something.

Outrun on a skateboard. Novel. Still sounds like a crap way to promote a game whose whole basis is 'freedom' though.

 

[Rossy Boy]

Yeah, i like the fact you can get off the board on this one, also able to move objects like ramps to make your own jumps.

yeah it only lasts 5 mins, but the more objectives you do and the quicker you do them, the more amount of allotted time you have to play... Thats the career part of the demo anyways.

As for the party play... Well, its pretty good. A Wall Of Meat battle against another player or an ABC game...Not sure how to play that one though..

Overall, the demo was pretty good. It gives you a little teaser as to what it has to offer...

Just downloading the demo.
Chunking demo. 1.7Gb.

 

[DJ_Smurf_2004]

Yeah, not much to do on it thought mate, you just do a quick part of the story mode and get on average 5 mins of extra time to play in story mode...

then you have 2 2-player modes... but u cant do much on them either lol

Tomorrow is the day people, Skate 2 will be hitting the shelves. I expect everyone on this site to go out and purchase/steal themselves a copy of the game.

I'll be using my £25 GAME voucher and obviously chipping in with my own money to make up for the difference. Can't wait, primarily because I've got a week off after my exam this afternoon, so I'll be in a happy zone!

I should be getting this tomorrow, and might get the day off as not feeling to good :happy:

How convenient eh ?

It's just such a relaxing game, the nice sky, the colourful environments, and not to mention the freedom of the customisation. Can't wait to just skate about with my mates online, shall be a momentous occasion, especially for all us Skate OG's.

:ninja:

Played it in HMV and decided against getting it.....

Just seems a hell of a lot more arcadey than the first one :\

Just started making some videos for the Skate reel, quite surprised with how easy it is to save and upload videos:
