   Overall, skate has great graphics and a fantastic control system never attempted by any other skateboarding games before. It also has plenty of game modes so that when you get bored or frustrated with the story mode, you can try a variety of other games. The graphics are good for a game of this type, and although the camera angle is annoying and frustrating at times, the game is a must for all fans of the genre, whether you are a skateboarder or not.

   2 Comments After a decade of Hawk, skate is the equivalent of skateboard boot camp. Its a few hours before we plant our first successful grind / flip trick transfer. EA's entry grounds the sport back into reality, as every single trick is an Everest, every successful landing a momentous achievement. It's realistic, refreshing and fantastic; welcome to the hard-earned rewards of real skating. Read more

   Although not quite perfect, skate has outdone the Tony Hawk's series on its very first attempt, an achievement that really can't be understated. In crafting such an organic and well balanced control scheme, Black Box and EA have probably produced the great gaming innovation of 2007 and in doing so have reinvigorated a genre that was becoming stale through lack of competition. Beyond the brilliantly intuitive and natural control scheme, a thoroughly believable, solid a... Read more

   Like the Tony Hawk games, Skate does occasionally stumble by throwing annoying goals at you, although only the races really fall into this category - even then, only a couple are more than a minor nuisance. If you were looking to pick holes, you could question the game's difficulty, the lacklustre character customisation and, indeed, several of the tasks. But to do so would be to do Skate wrong, as while it does occasionally hit a bum note, it does so many things abso... Read more
