Skate!

I've never had issues with them before... This is the first time in all the years I've used them that I've never had something delivered before release date.

What is slightly worrying is the fact it says order completed on their website :-/

I've been using them for at least 5+ years now
 
I'm pretty sure I recall people on the Halo 3 thread saying there's were late/never got an email confirmation of dispatch.

Admittedly it's been a long time since I've used them. But my experience with them was so dire, my choice never to use them again is engraved into my sub-conscious.
 
yeah up until 2 days before release the ladder company said 'ordered' then it suddenly changed to completed and i got it the next day. Not the usual preparing for despatch notices.
 
I got bioshock thingy edition on the wednesday before release (friday) from ladder company. They did manage to send me a Hidden & Dangerous 2 without a sodding CD key with it, but no problems replacing it.
 
Now, I can't wait for this game, and will enjoy playing it, but one thing I'm still let down by the fact I still cant associate my gamertag with an EA persona! So I cant upload video's. :(

2nd time for me :(

No email and Bioshock delivered on day of release :(

I suspect skate. will be the same - not had an email on this either.....

I certainly used these guys as for back as 2000 to my knowledge and they have always been excellent - am starting to wonder if their change of location has effected them.....
 
They used to be fantastic but I think things have been geting worse since they were bought out / merged with the biggest high street shop.

I had some fun with them recently over a 360 controller and order numbers they had no record of yet I had emails fro mthem with the order number on :(
 
Never played a skating game but i loved SSX series, will i like this? Is there loads of stuff to unlock and 'level up' to?

there is no levelling, and you can unlock special areas like the x games and danny ways mega compound. The game has racing so its got a kind of ssx feel to that. Best bet is to download the demo and give it a go.
 
neither could i until yesterday when i found this link on the ea skate forum.

clicky

i give up, ea's site makes no sense. I click on the link in the email and it asks me to register a new account. So i enter shamikebab and it tells me its already been taken, hmm i think i must have forgotten my password. So i click remind me of my password and enter shamikebab and it tells me no such account exists!! its just a pile of ****.
 
when you get to the login screen where it offers you a chance to put in your email or 'use the old system' do the old system way and then you get a chance to update the account to the new way at which point you can sign in with your email. That is how I did it.
 
can you save videos to your hard drive in the full game? im not to bothered if i never get skate reel to work but id quite like to show videos to my mates from my 360.
 
I'm currently sitting at my desk in work... I've got SQL Server Management, VB, Dreamweaver and Flash open...

But the best thing of all thats open?

Is my copy of Skate that arrived this morning...

It's sitting on my desk, staring at me... asking me 'Why the heck are you in work... go home and play with me... Touch me.... Ooooh you know you want to!'

It's like having a secret dirty hooker sitting on my desk...

Well.... maybe not that good...
 
I'm stuck trying to perform a nollie 360 flip in single player to get the last board sponser. It is under advanced tricks and is exactly the same motion as a few other tricks in there and I don't seem to be able to do hardly any of them because they don't start in the middle stick position.

How are you supposed to do the tricks where the motion starts on the outside and you don't push the stuck from the middle to start it? The sticks natural position is in the middle so you have to move it out, but the motion for the trick starts on the outside? :confused:
