Im definitely looking forward to skate more but i've been a diehard THPS fan since 2 so i'll probably end up getting both. THPG's branching story line and video editor both look excellent (the video editor being the main thing its got over skate at the moment imo)

skate has a video editor as well.

TH3 is the best imo, P8 was getting back on track but had some very annoying issues to it.

Yeap 3 def the best. I have up after Thug 2 as they really started to suck.

Can't wait for skate though, will start the d/l at lunchtime.

yeah i know but Tony Hawks is looking far superior, you can set them to music for one, plus move the camera however you want as supposed to fixed position. Also the game will use some of the the guitar hero 3 rhythm technology to judge your video based on how well its set to the music.
 
Took a while for me to get used to the controls (Not having to hold down a for jumping :o )

I eventually managed to string together big combos, but got stuck on when of the challenges. You had to fliptrick into manual, and then fliptrick out.

I could manual outside of the combo, but found it hard to use it in a combo.


Graphics look good, and the camera didn't put me off at all.

well you've had it for 27 mins give us an opinion :p

:cool:
 
Well I didnt like it. I dont skateboard but I still thought the tony hawks games were fun and had a nice learning curve, skate feels more like a chore to play. I gave up after a number of annoyances.
 
Has it speeded up for anyone or does it stay constant? At this rate it'll be midnight for me...

I would restart if it would help but 20% is a lot to lose!
 
I restarted mine, got to 20% quickly now has slowed right down. I wish Microsoft could sort there speeds out. Surely they can throw some money at em and get some good ones!

The best part about skating games is the crashes. So if a game can properly nail the sort of crashes which make you flinch then its a winner for me

The crashes looked good in the video's I saw.

I will set this downloading when I get home so that it is done when I get back from football training tonight. Can someone tell me how to set the 360 to switch off once the downloads are complete please?
Thanks
 
on the systems blade go to console settings then its one of those options

OR

press the guide button and go to personal settings, might be in there.



Its one of those two, i think probably the first.
