Quantcast



Hopefully, by now you've had a chance to check out my preview on Skate 3. Looks to be a fairly solid entry into the series, one fans are surely going to get a kick out of come next May.

Anyway, here's the trailer for the game. Looks like Skate, huh? I mean, I suppose I could talk about the obvious team based direction they are hyping, or how the female skater is all sorts of fugly, and all that jazz. But I'm not, mostly because the song in this trailer is damn amazing and awesome. I mean, listen to that. It's about panthers. And eyes. It's obviously a commentary on panther/human relations in the American Southwest or some crap, and skaters are going to save the day.

Yeah.

Doesn't look like much has changed from Skate 2 on the engine side.

Looks like it's heading the Tony Hawk direction...no?

Steel Panther are an amazing band but their songs kinda lose some of their greatness when they're censored...

Game looks pretty decent though.

Black Box, please adjust those physics. That still looks way too floaty. This is starting to look (and feel) like the Tony Hawk series all over again... moving away from realism in order to dumb down the gameplay for a casual audience. Not interested.

Damn. Looks like I will be sticking with Skate 2 for a while. I might even go pick up Skate 1 again for a cheap price just because it had the best city out of the two. This is looking sad. I figured this was going to happen to the series eventually, just not this soon. I held out a hope that the people involved in making it still cared about the actual skating aspect of it.

This game needs all sorts of work done on the physics to get back to the realistic feel they were going for when they first made Skate. Instead now we have people grinding construction equipment and floating through the air.

Damn you people for creating a great game and straying away from the original intent when you realized how much money you can make by just slapping a sequel together. Sad times.
