Keeping it simple, it’s fair to say that we liked Skate 2. A lot. An awful lot actually and it really did surprise us exactly how much fun we were having despite our ineptitude and the fact that we were bailing out faster than a sailor in a sinking ship.

Skate 2 isn’t an easy game to play at first, but it’s unfair to put the fault on the game there because the reality is that it’s difficult to play not because it’s badly designed or unintuitive, but because we’re just so used to playing Tony Hawk games instead. It’s like playing an FPS game using a non-inverted mouse and then moving to play a game which demands the mouse must be inverted. Neither view is wrong really, but getting used to it can be a bit difficult.
