Black Box redefined what the skating-game genre could,
and should be, with Skate It. Now they have come out with the
long anticipated sequel Skate 2 for the PlayStation 3. This new
installment features a lot more exciting and sophisticated
tricks, an improved Reel editor, a deeper create-a-skater, and
much more.
The Story Continues
Skate 2 is set five years after the events in Skate It, where
many earthquakes had devastated the city leaving it in ruins.
Instead of the skaters' paradise that the city used to be, the
new city dubbed New San Vanelona, has stepped-up security, thanks
to Mongo Co., in order to protect the best parts of the city.
This is the setting for you to rebuild your skate career and
revive the city's skate scene. Whereas you started the last game
by learning the basics of skating, with Skate 2 you'll be
immediately challenged by find a couple huge ramps. You start out
at Slappy's, and while there are some tutorials, veterans will be
able to blaze through them in about a minute. New players, on the
other hand, will find Slappy's park to be inviting and easily
accessible, and can get a taste of what's in store for them
before taking on the entirety of San Vanelona. And once out
there, you'll find that people you run into remember you and what
you did five years ago, and are excited to see you back in
action.
Exciting New Features and Capabilities
While the controls will be instantly familiar to fans of the
previous game, there are loads of new tricks to perform. Skaters
can now do foots, crail slides and fingerflips. Or show off
with a lip trick, an Ollie North, and the long-sought ability to
Skitch (grabbing the bumper of a moving car) to gain speed.
New to Skate 2 is the ability to get off your board and walk
around. While on foot, players can move certain objects in the
world, creating their own lines with nearly 100 different
objects. Changes to the environment, big or small, will stay put
in the game regardless of how long you play. Should you decide
that you no longer like your giant stack of t bins or some
other madness you've set up, one touch of a button can return the
items to their original position. This means gamers can create
their own epic spots and challenges, which can then be uploaded,
shared, and experienced by others around the world.
Loads of Great Improvements
Skate 2 expands on the original's popular Reel editor, allowing
gamers to place a follow camera or a fixed tripod camera wherever
they want, their wicked tricks and brutal ces. And
speaking of ces, skaters will now experience, and be able to
highlight, damage to their threads. Clothes get dirty and become
torn, and players get cuts and s depending on their
actions. And if you c big enough, you'll see a bail score pop
up and increase as you take damage, culminating in the Ther
Hall of Meat screen that tells you how well you've done cing,
and gives you an x-ray view showing your broken s.
Skate 2 also features the choice of creating either a male or
female character, rather than just male, and will offer an
in-depth graphics creator. The role of money increases, allowing
players to buy up pieces of property and turn them into a
full-fledged skate parks. And there is a great new Goofy vs.
Regular competition variant, where two teams of three skaters
compete in the same park at the same time.
In short, Skate 2 ups the ante in delivering all the grit,
creativity and culture of skateboarding, with all-new tricks and
capabilities that allow players to truly skate it their way, on
and off the board.
The create-a-skater features lets you personalize your player.
