skate.ps3 demo impressions and gamespy review

First off, gamespy gave the ps3 version of skate 5 out 5*, and had this to say: great controls, perfect presentation, huge environments, excellent audio and lot´s and lot´s to see.

And you can read the rest here

Secondly we´ve,as in the entire family, has been playing skate since the demo hit the eu psn store, and it is a real blast, neat looking, easy to pick up and contradictory to what gamespy had to say i think the learning curve is real smooth.

Yes, it is very demanding to pull off some of the harder moves, but that doesnt feel frustrating because the controls are second to nature and it´s so intuitive that none of us ever needed any explaining on how to do something, we just played away.

The game itself is a real treat and a very different experience, great music and nice real life graphics, it´s like just hanging around, doing nothing real but still enjoying yourself, and well the family verdict is that it´s a must buy so we´ll pick it up in the store this week.

If you´re unsure, go ahead and download the playstation store demo, we´ll post a proper review once we´ve had enough time under the belt with the real game.
