Are you serious? Ive only done like 3 or 4 matches. But they all were pretty easy. Most of the time the PC bails.

It's after the 3 or 4 that it gets ridiculous. Like 5-9 are just evil and I don't even know how many I have left to do.

PS3 demo was just released today and I'm downloading it right now, really can't wait. Shitty how we're going to have to wait till next Thursday at least to get the 2k8 demo though, but w/e hopefully the skate demo will keep me busy.

I love this game....

by **BigKaboom2** on Fri Sep 21, 2007 1:49 pm

Jesus Christ.

The comedy factor of this game is immense. I'll see if I can put mine up - my Xbox Live connection at school has been finicky as of late due to obnoxious port throttling practices.

EDIT: I'm literally laughing out loud at the first one you posted today - any footage where you can't see the car coming is epic.

by **BigKaboom2** on Fri Sep 21, 2007 2:23 pm

Okay here you go.

Second one is the Skate experience summed up in one video.

I've played the demo now a few times and I really like it. I don't love it though, as there are several things that could be a lot better. But Skate 2 should be awesome :wink:

Still, it's definitely a purchase and I'm sure I'll have a lot of fun with it.

Awesome vids Jao and BigKaboom2

I'll see if I can get some vids from the demo up. But there's probably not too much cool stuff you can do in it..

whenever one of the other skaters hit me I always hunt their asses down. I actually knocked one of them into a car but I didn't want to overwrite the 3 videos I already have uploaded. (gotta find the flv downloader for the skate site)

and that first one was really nice, I didnt realize until the Plan B best trick contest that you can go into the coffin in mid-air.

by **Andreas Dahl** on Sat Sep 22, 2007 1:34 am

Seems like you aren't able to save/upload on the PS3 demo. Oh well..

By the way, it kinda sucks how it's limited to those few cameras. It would've been great if you were able to pan/rotate/zoom freely..

YouTube · by **JaoSming** on Sat Sep 22, 2007 1:55 am

yea the cameras are kinda limiting, but it is still a nice feature.

when you are in the replay editor press triangle i think for the PS3 version to goto the replay menu. The upload option should be there.

by **Andreas Dahl** on Sat Sep 22, 2007 2:47 am

It's there, but greyed out. Same with the two save options..

that sucks Dahl, dont know what to tell you

Damn that guys going to need a new face.

LOL, i think i enjoy videos of bails more then good moves. I dont know why people cry over if the videos are realistic or not, who the fuck cares? They bought the game, let them play it the way they want. I guess the players that actually skate think they made this game for them only, and they get to set the rules or some shit.

by **cheater1034** on Sat Sep 22, 2007 11:05 pm

I'm gonna buy this game come tuesday or whenever it's supposed to be here for ps3. The demo is very nice, but I'm bored with the CC and the glitch doesn't work on ps3 demo like it does on the 360 one.

lol, I hate when they get in my way, I was skating a bowl trying to nail some front flips/back flips, I was in mid air about to land and some one flys right into me. That gets annoying.

I never really been into skateboarding or skateboarding video games for that matter but I downloaded it off XBL and I have to say it seems like a lot of fun. I'm not sure if I'll bother with the full version but the demo has me thinking about it.

Hmmm i underestimated this. I got to Carroll and he does any freakin tick i do, he never misses. And he always does these advanced moves.

by **BigKaboom2** on Sun Sep 23, 2007 7:44 am

Yup, it was Carroll for me too. Then it got slightly easier again after him.

Can you pick up the board and run in this game?

by **BigKaboom2** on Sun Sep 23, 2007 8:41 am

No, unfortunately. It makes stairs incredibly irritating.

by **-Young Buck-** on Sun Sep 23, 2007 8:41 am

hmmm, well i have to say i have alot of fun playing skate online. More so then halo 3 beta, crackdown, GOW, madden. I dunno its just fun. I really like doing the owned spots and death races the most.

by **Andreas Dahl** on Sun Sep 23, 2007 6:47 pm

Has anyone managed to ollie under a grind, have the player go over and then land it on the other side (Hippie Flip I believe it's called)?

YouTube · by **JaoSming** on Mon Sep 24, 2007 12:03 am

it's tough but you can do it. well, you cant with a normal ollie but there are videos of people doing that with kickflips on the skate website.

Speaking of user-created-content. I had some fun last night.
