    mhh i hope there are some areas where english is spoken and some for germans...

    Yeah, the company is place on the Berlin wall, 1 side of the office for germans and 1 for non-germans.They probably do meetings and stuff in english, other than they people probably speak the language they speak best.

    Slain, have you done the pumping tutorial? Or atleast do you know how to pump transitions? Well if not; Get enough speed, ride to the top turn into grind, flip, grind and flip out, but be sure to have atleast x2 before doing it, with x3 it's almost too easy.

    If that doesn't work, land on top of the corner, set a session marker (left tb and dpad down) and just do a flip and land in a grind and do some more flips and grinds

    sjosz, you need to do sick combos basically, and not bail on a single trick. if you get x2 or x3, try to keep it "alive", makes the game hell'a lot easier.

    i also have a similar feeling to the tricks aswell. i always seems to accidently do a shuvit or 360 shuvit wen trying 360flips or hardflips.

    HARDFLIP IS THE OTHER WAY (if you are thinking about bs spins).If you manage to put all the "OWN TEH SPOT!!!1" spots on your map, then navigation is a lot quicker. Only thing that kinda sucks, is that you cannot place your own permanent spot markers anywhere. Like when you find this awesome set of stairs or whatever, you always have to "re-find it" if you turn of your console. Stepping off the board would have made it hella' lot easier to get up stairs and such. But you always have the session markers, if you've been there no long ago.

    -stereotyped skateboarding lifestyle, mostly talking about the narrator's dialogue (who is... mike carroll, right? "yo, what's up dog, that is sick! let me say some more bullshit against my will!")

    True, you should be able to turn those off after a while, especially if you skate in a skatepark or something with 3-4 other skaters, it's like "YO WAS POOPIN TK' IS U JUST RAPPIN OR WHAT!?", get really annoying after 10 minutes when he starts repeating lines.

    Quote from Algor

    -distance movement seemed pretty jacked. in real life you would ollie up a curb pretty close to it, trying this in skate = slam. you have to ollie from what seems like over ten feet away to get up a ten inch tall curb.

    True, but if you flick it faster, then you can do it from less distance. No way to change it, that's kinda bad for the people that doesn't like it at all.

    Quote from Algor

    -camera position is terrible, it's hard to see what is coming up, this really kills it for me (is there a way to change it?)

    It's awesome. It's really hard to get used to, but when you first get into it, it all becomes kinda "smooth" in a way. Except when bombing hills, I always hit a couple of grandma's and then I loose the race.

    Quote from Algor

    -many tricks have similar movements, so it can be difficult to do what you want, when you want

    Oh hell yeah, but it's a kinda cool thing aswell. Especially online, you see people doing skyhigh nollie 360flip and such all the time, while you only get low nollie 360 shuvits. Pretty steep learning curve, but when you first learn the tricks, then you always remember how to do them.ps. the intro is really funny. if the Gonz was going to operate on me, I'd rather die first..

    so, skate. (note the lowercase and the . in a title; GROUNDBREAKING!) have been released all over the world by now. I actually got my Xbox just for playing skate., and it's worth all the money.

    It actually feels right, when doing tricks, you kinda feel like you acomplish something hard, that not everyone can do. As a long time THPS player, and even longer a real skater, this is the game Ive been waiting for. I've played it almost non-stop since I got the box and the game. The "flick it" controls are actually even more groundbreaking than the name.

    So, anyone have it? Up for some long night sessions all day?

    (ps not released on PS3 yet)

  • Halo 3 - No Spoilers Plz K Thnx

    I wish I got one of those copies that got leak in Norway. If you handed it back to EA-Norway, you got the ultra collectors edition. I'd say that I'd trade it for an Elite + Halo 3 instead, if not, release it on the internets.

    Getting my xbox soon (premium hdmi ), I'll buy skate before I get Halo3, but I guess I kinda need Halo3 if I get xbox..
