so fucking cool. thsi is what the new jib game should be.

"The scoring is authentic," Blackwood explains. "We focus on lines, style and measurements -- things that make up a great video part as opposed to an emphasis on stringing together impossible combos and frantically button mashing as many tricks together as you can." If you've ever watched skaters in action, lines aren't some insane series of gravity- and physics-defying moves strung together over a two-minute period. It's more about using the environment to gain speed, stringing together a couple of tricks, taking a breath, gathering more speed, and doing it all again. "

It looks kinda cool. It isn't really that realistic though if u watch the game play videos. The guy ollies out of proportion and a lot of the tricks are all jerky and caught funny.

the flick it controls are retarded. Tony Hawk 8 has a similar system that is really cool but only if used sparingly. I don't see how they can make a game better than tony hawk. Tony Hawk lets you do realistic lines and tricks if you want to and ridiculous shit so that the game is more fun.
