 Best Skateboard game yet!! May 10, 2008
This game blows all the tony hawks out of the water!!! The only thing that I didn't like is the background is a little choppy sometimes and the game could of been longer. highly recomend this game if you like skating!
 Best Skateboarding Game! April 20, 2008
This game is revolutionary! THe control scheme is amazingly better than Tony Hawk and is much better in general. Because of this game, I will never buy another tony hawk game again. I highly recommend this game.

Skate for PS3 Both my boys play it . My 12 yr. old son says" it is more realistic not the "mubo jumbo" You use the Analog Stick instead just the buttons.I havent played it, I have watch them play it the graphics are great even down to the pair of ICE Cream brand Shoes that my son owns that are in the game.
Fun while it lasted... January 30, 2008

so...i played the demo on ps3 and i couldn't stop playing. it was addictive and totally different from Tony Hawk.
it's not a tony hawk killer by any means...i'm sure two skateboard games can co-exist.
controls: once you know what does what, it's just practice. nothing wrong with the controls at all except when trying to move with the right analog...locks up. rarely but it does.
graphics: nice
camera view: at first i thought it was nice. then i stopped playing for a month and came back to it and realized that i hated it. i wish you could change the camera view at least.
it's a nice game though all in all. just small things that keep it from being a 5/5.
when you play SKATE against the pro skaters, you are only in one spot the entire time. that's boring.
can't change camera angles = really dumb
basically, i couldn't stop playing this game when i got it. replay value was great. i love the recording replay deal. after i stopped playing for a month, i couldn't play it like i used to...it was fun as hell though

Please read this before you make your purchase, if you own an XBOX 360 get it for that version than for the Playstation 3! Playstation 3 is by far my favorite system so this is the honest truth when i say that you will be happy going with the 360 version rather than the PS3 version.
Okay now that the ranting and raving is over here is the main reason why i feel this way. Frame rates are choppy. Yeah thats not that big of a deal when the game plays well which to me this scores a 5 out of 5 on everything else, but the frames make this lag so much that i felt compelled to write this review. First off you may wonder why i have both and there is a reason at first i was waiting for Skate and i was going to buy it when it first came out i then found out that it came out for the 360 before the ps3 so i got it for the 360, i wanted to wait and get it for the ps3 but i couldnt wait knowing that it was available to play so i bit and bought it. Like i said this game is AWESOME to say the least. Well anywho this was the only game i had for the 360 and need to take care of financial issues so i could only keep one system and the ps3 won. I then sold my copy of skate for the 360 and bought immediately after with my newly acquired funds skate for the Playstation 3. Seeing what i see now i am willing to rebuy a 360 to just play this game. Thats right you heard me EA i am willing to spend 300 + to get a system that i only played very few time for 1 game just because this version is that bad with the frame rates. At this point i still feel cheated that i bought this version for the ps3 and i cant return it because its that bad. And its a shame that its getting good reviews because it really only deserves that for the 360. Change the frame rate issue with the ps3 version and my rating will go from the 3 stars that it is to 5 instantly. You have been warned
