oh yea i forgot to tell, the online play is pretty sketchy, sometimes you get disconnected from the ea thingy or whatever and it boots you from the room, accualy happens a lot. theres a bunch of other stuff too

I just played it, and it is SO much more fun than the Tony Hawk games. Like if you grind for too long, you come to a stop. And the way the controls are set up, it makes all the tricks relatively hard to do; like it actually takes SKILL.

But maybe I was so amazed by it because it was my first time playing an xbox 360 game, and the last skateboarding game I played was THUG.

^when you play online you can choose ranked unranked or custom match, in the custom match you can choose like 3 things i forgot what they are but you can choose freeskate too, then you can pick whatever level you want. and yes you can choose s.k.a.t.e also best trick and some other things

still waiting for FIFA 08 to come and ruin my life, probably gonna pick this up in the meantime though...looks like it'll be a million times more fun than tony hawk.

it gets boring after the 2nd or 3rd time you 50-50 an entire rollercoaster or do a 1440 on the moon...
