    This latest chapter improves on virtually every aspect of its near-flawless fundamentals, while delivering more modes, missions, and multiplayer components, proving to fans that its days of resting on its laurels aren't here quite yet.

    The barebones have always worked and EA has gone by the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" idea and kept most of it the same. Instead, EA have thrown in a bunch of interesting extras that make a purchase worthwhile.

    There's more content here than you could shake a stick at. What's more, it is all incredibly well put-together; from the single-player career to deep customization and truly robust online play.

    The difficulty tuning makes it a great buy for fanatics and noobs. Not so, those in the middle. [July 2010, p.80]

    Doesn't take gamers anywhere as exotic or over-the-top. And that's its charm. The realistic setting and complex control scheme make for an engaging single-player experience, but it's the wide range of online multiplayer options that make Skate gleam the cube.

    The best skateboarding game you can buy. A good game in its own right, and a worthy sequel for all its worth.

    With Skate 2 released just a little over a year ago, it's clear that Skate 3 was pumped out too quickly. The ideas are great, but the lack of polish is evident with every flip, flop, and flub.

    Hands down my favorite game of all time. Soooo many great memories. Lots of funny glitches, but also a reall fun game to master in terms of skating.

If I was a parent this is the type of game I would buy my kids (maybe for kids 8+), you need to memorize moves, then practice applying them in different environments, often times it feels puzzle like. You will fall time and time again, but eventually when you start putting things together.… Expand

    I love this game. I was really looking forward to playing this and I wasn't disappointed, this game was awesome. The ragdoll physics areI love this game. I was really looking forward to playing this and I wasn't disappointed, this game was awesome. The ragdoll physics are hilarious and the online maps are really good. I have a problem with it though. Playing online freeskate. When someone leaves online match you have to wait until the server is back up to six players. But people don't wait and just leave. Also I can't leave the server when it's waiting for a player. It literally softlocks the game. Anyways that's my only problem but this is an amazing game.… Expand

    Je mets 1 surtout pour la vidéo rigolote d’intro, une vidéo « réelle » qui m’a refait penser aux vidéos complètement tarées du fameux RoadJe mets 1 surtout pour la vidéo rigolote d’intro, une vidéo « réelle » qui m’a refait penser aux vidéos complètement tarées du fameux Road Rash sur 3DO, un jeu paru il y a des lustres… et parti au cimetière des éléphants. C’était rigolo donc, cette assez longue intro, illustrant fort bien l’état d’esprit de ces baltringues qui font du « skateboard »…

    Et d’ailleurs, même que c’est aux Jeux Olympiques maintenant, ces conneries de skate ! mais je puis vous confier une chose : c’est aussi chiant en jeu qu’en vrai, pour autant qu’on ait la témérité de « grinder » les rampes et le mobilier urbain à proximité, bien sûr. Et d’ailleurs, ça me rappelle une émission, une sorte de vidéogag avec les jeunes cons qui se pétaient la gueule avec leur planche à roulettes et se prenaient des gamelles d’enfer : c’était drôle ! à se taper le cul par terre, je vous jure.

    Mais donc, quoi qu’il en soit, revenons à notre « jeu »… notons qu’il est bien amélioré via la rétrocompatibilité optimisée sur Xbox One X (et ultérieures) : détails poussés et résolution 4k, rien que ça. Du coup, c’est pas trop vilain du tout. Mais dire que c’est « jouable », amusant (?) ou simplement… intéressant (?!), ce serait mentir. Or, on ne va pas se mentir : c’est chiant, pas réactif, mal pensé et ça vise avant tout les ados idiots (pléonasme).    … Expand
