I have both, but for a while now I've been playing skate 2 a lot. Skate 2 just has so much better rails and generally better spots for street skating. Skate 3 instead, super ultra megapark for days.

I also agree here, both are awesome but a skate 2/3 hybrid would be awesome.


I imagine skate 4 will be awesome on ps4/xbox1

Skate 3 for the park builder and skate 2 for the crazy street spots.

The instant replay in skate 3 should be a feature that every game has.

Skate 3 didn't feel as true to the Skate franchise IMO. Skate 2 gets my vote.

i have 3 but ive played 1 and 2 a lot. all i really do anymore is make retarded jumps and try doubles/triples in the park editor so skate 3 is good for that. the actual world in skate three, carverton or whatever its called, is kinda boring. there are some fun spots but it gets boring after a while.

Skate 3 was a huge step backward, aesthetically. Probably why the Skate series got canned.

I honestly would rather session the funtrack/mega ramp on skate 2 than the mega park on skate 3.

I think in general skate 2 is a better game but it's fun building parks in 3.

I didn't hate 3, I like them all but 2 was legit.

I think the mega park in Skate 1 is the best

I had to look it up to even remember what the hell it was. Forgot about that.


The mega in skate 2 is the same thing with more options. Also the ability to double on both the mega and the fun track rainbow jump.

I love that rainbow. Front blunt 810 outs and shit like that

The original skate is easily the best. That could just be my nostalgia talking though.

It's hard to go back to though. I'm not a big fan of the low camera angle and not being able to walk up stairs is a pain in the balls sometimes. Still a great game though

I think 2 has the most skater focused feeling while 3 is more of a "mainstream" comercialisation of skating, but Skate 2 remade, like Skate 2.5 or something with Skate 2 but added features from Skate 3 would be sweet

I have og skate and skate 3. I like 3 more because you can get off your board, park editor, and object spawner.

I like them both. As people have said, I can session 2's world for a longgg time and not get bored, while in 3 i have to either make something and/or get really creative to stay interested for more than 45 mins

skate 3 if im playing by myself and it's dope that you can make your own parks. But skate two if im with my friends just because of the multiplayer. But they are both pretty similar in terms of features and maps in my opinion.

Skate 2 is legendary... i've played literally days and still find new spots to session, and the physics on rails and such are way more inclined to doing realistic tricks.
