Skate: The Game

Since 1999, the definitive skate game had to be the Tony Hawk series from Activision. However EA sports recently launched it’s new website for Skate: The Game in attempt to claim the crown as the best skate video game. Skate: The Game features a wealth of players that include the likes of Danny Way, Rob Dyrdek, Chris Cole, PJ Ladd, Jason Dill, Jerry Hsu, Mark Gonzales, Dennis Busenitz, Mike Carroll, Ryan Gallant, Ryan Smith, John Rattray, Colin McKay, Pat Duffy, Paul Rodriguez, Terry Kennedy, Chris Haslam, and Alex Chalmers. However most importantly, they have implemented an all new control system called flick it. The control system allows you to execute tricks intuitively via joystick rather then button combination. For example to ollie, push the joystick down and then up; to kickflip push down and then push the joystick diagonally up. Stay tuned for more info and release info. Info: CtotheJL
