Just got this game today and while it seems fun, I must be the worst SKATE player ever as I'm struggling to do even the simplest things such as grind two rails in a row. I keep wanting to press y to gind and hold and release a to jump

Don't worry, it takes a long time for the controls and everything to really click. I wouldn't say I've felt very good at the game until quite recently.

Finished the annals of meat challenges

Shamikebab · 25 Jan 2009 at 14:34

Freeskate tonight then peeps?

Shamikebab · 25 Jan 2009 at 15:22

any time really

Shamikebab · 25 Jan 2009 at 15:52

How about 7pm?

Shamikebab · 25 Jan 2009 at 16:03

lol, ok 8. SHould have plenty of room considering it was just me and Psy last time!

Shamikebab · 25 Jan 2009 at 17:34

don't bother with pressing forwards using the triggers is far easier. Press either trigger as you are going up or down the vert ramp to gain speed

Shamikebab · 25 Jan 2009 at 18:59

We're playing now if anyone else wants to join

Shamikebab · 25 Jan 2009 at 20:14

I am, I think Psy is around as well.

Totally seconded, insane skills tonight. I can't believe we've only done 69 out of 149 online challenges though!!! The shelf life of this game is going to be incredibly high.

Works fine for me. When you go to 'choose a graphic' for a custom deck it show up at the botttom of the list after all the normal graphics.

Quit your death racing and get making the video then :>

You know the one in the tunnel

How is yours coming along

Shamikebab · 26 Jan 2009 at 15:39

We did two cool things in multiplayer last night that we have to recreate in career to save, both involving going round the loop of a tunnel

Shamikebab · 26 Jan 2009 at 19:14

Anyone multiplayering tonight?

Shamikebab · 27 Jan 2009 at 02:35

Well me and Psymonkee have completed all 149 co-op freeskate challenges

I tip my hat to you sir :cool:

Shamikebab · 27 Jan 2009 at 02:46

I am a points whore

You came into your own by staying rational with the infuriating challenges

I got a secret achievement...because I'm weird. I always push mongo out of habit, I started it on skate 1 because I used to push mongo when I skated IRL! Free 20G.

ack! mongo skater!! having said that i always used to skate mongo to set up for a fakie trick

I take it the achievement involved skating X distance mongo?

Im working on this one, the achievement is for 3000 mongo pushes. Really hard training myself to mongo push again, I'm on about 5500 regular and 2400 mongo pushes so far.

Heya guys...this game worth a purchase then? I loved the demo...not sure wether to buy or not..

yes imo, has a surprising amount of game time in it and the multiplayer is really fun.
