Quantcast



I haven't the slightest idea what a "grind-to-pump-to-tranny" is, but I'm guessing it's an important thing that skaters do. It's at least something Black Box Studios thought about when constructing Skate 3's "Port Carverton," an urban series of plazas rife with people, memorials, and all sorts of crap to jump off of or "tranny" on if that's your thing. We're not in the business of judging or telling, so feel free to enjoy what the next Skate offers. We won't say anything. Promise.

It's a stupid fucking way to say "transition".

You're telling me skaters took a word that means transvestite to most humans and decided to use it in place of the word transition?

lol.

You people.

A tranny is any transition onto a higher plane like a ramp.

Destructoid seems to do alot of reporting on things that they know nothing about.

Game looks pretty sick. I can't wait to buy that one. You'll get to see the new Lakai shoes too. Rad.

They try. I mean if it involves video game it's kind of their job to report it.

And I see where Brad was going with his little slow news day joke. Just wasn't too entertaining if you know what a tranny is. :/

I'm still skeptical, I'll try it before I buy.

Remember how shitty NFS:Undercover was compared to NFS:Most Wanted? I'm worried the same curse might happen to this game because there has been massive layoffs at BlackBox after the release of Skate2 and I've heard that they've let go the creative people and kept the dead-wood people with management roles responsible for turning Most Wanted into a crappy sequel.

So yeah I'll wait and hope. Skate2 is still my favorite game to chill around and BlackBox awesome games, but it's not about franchises, companies or studios, it's the people that make great games.

I'll loved skate 1, didn't buy skate 2. They tried to stick some story, which it didn't need.. I may buy this one tho, based on the demo. If I don't like the changes, I may go for a cheap skate 2.

Gawd I use to buy crap from Games Workshop, eats away at money like a hooker addiction. Video gaming is way cheaper for me... I think.
