ive been sick for 3 days now and have basically been playing skate 3 for 70 percent of that time. Ive beaten pretty much all of the challenges and my board sales are killing it. i dont wanna buy dlc but i still wanna have fun with the game. i feel like ive done it all. any suggestions on what to do to spice the game up

Session spots, build parks, play with friend(if that still works)

I'll find a dub kink or down rail and sesh it for a while throwing snowboard tricks. I've built some pretty sick parks.

Also can build a triple park and throw trips

Building parks is fun if you get in to it. try to pick up skate and skate 2 if you can and haven't yet. They're definitely not worst, I have all three and play them all.

EA killed the companies that made them. Would be cool if somebody bought the rights to it. It woukd sell well enough even if it was the same as skate 3 with new levels/story.

Would buy but wint happen

I don't know what happened to the companies that made the game but EA is just a publisher. Game designing companies often go under or break apart after completing games which is likely what happened. Even if EA were to go about getting a skate 4 made, it may be tough because all of the people involved in skate 3 are now likely working for other game companies and skate 4 would turn out quite differently than the other three because of it.

But yes, it would be cool to utilize the same engine and change few things. Or use the engine with a skier/snowboarder and make the best damn snow sports game ever

I actually bought a 360 for real cheap just so I could play skate 3. if you want to spice it up there is one dlc that is definitely worth the money. Danny Way's Hawaian dream adds endless hours of fun to already endless hours of fun.

build parks-- can be anything from rail parks to huge triple jumps... so many options

danny way's hawaiian dream is sick and has what might be the biggest jump in the game

keep exploring the city

get skate 2 and literally never get bored of the fun track (and the whole map is sick in 2)

I just found out that EA gutted the developer, Blackbox, so we'll most likely never see another skate game :(

EA gutted god damn near every company that's collaborated with them.


also does anyone know if the b-labs van was theirs or was it actually just srams? They were in my town a bunch and I couldn't work out if they were making a biking game or if it was completely unrelated.

I know this is kind of off topic but i've been playing' steep and I'm addicted. The skiing in the game is just really fun. Maybe try that or Snow the game as I hear that one is really fun too.

OP this is a must do in Skate 3. It gets boring after a while but it should provide some entertainment trying to get on top of sky scrapers or going from building to building

skate 3 is definitely the worst out of the series. skate 2 has a lot more cool spots in my opinion

Skate 2 deff has the best spots, but I like 3 better cause I think the guy looks more realistic and its better quality
