Have you played the new demo for proving grounds. I think it is so sick that you can create whatever you want in the level whenever you want to and you can just get rid of stuff you dont want on the level. In the full game you have like 100 options of things you can put anywhere so you are basically creating the level.If you chose that career path and there is 3 different careers you can choose.

I was playing the demo of that game, so epic.

It's so fun to think about a trick, then do it.
And you have to make ur own lines and think of linking certain tricks together. It's sick.
This game takes skill.. It takes effort to get good.

I broke it open, and immediately started skating around. I was going for a good minute in a half as fast as I could, and stopped to check the map, thinking I had made some good headway. I had barely moved on this map! To say the city is huge is an understatement. And there's stuff to do EVERYWHERE.
The possibilities are endless. I could see myself losing at least 100 hours of my life to this game before I'm bored of it, and I probably wouldn't get off if I had no self control. The possibilities are just so vast, and I haven't even done much career yet. Almost none at all, actually.

What I didn't realize before is that San Vanelona is a combonation of San Fransisco, Vancouver and Barcelona (yeah, I'm slow, ok?). It's really cool because I live in Vancouver and there are actually things from Vancouver in the game! The Vancouver Public Library is there, I was sooo suprised when I saw it. Also, the Shearton Wall Center is in there... and that's also in Vancouver.
This is the best game experience I have ever had to this day in my life, and I've barely breached 2 hours of gameplay, and I've probably explored about 1% of the city.

Buy this game. Unparalleled gaming experience.

I just finished Danny Way's maga compound jam last night, holy crap. I couldn't stop playing this game(mainly because I can't play Bioshock at night).

Such a sick game. It has a couple flaws, but if they make a second game I think it will be amazing.

I'd get skate it's my favourite video game I've played to date. Also The THPS started getting pretty boring and repetitive after underground 1 and I'm not a big fan of the halo series.

yah theyve fixed it for the most part i think, it was only first generation that had that particular problem.

that said, my brother's crapped out around finals last semester and he spent all summer sending it back and forth to the repair people...every time it came back it would break again within an hour after we plugged it in

eventually microsoft expanded their warranty and sent us a brand new xbox

they also refunded all his repair costs, so that was pretty cool of them
