Tony Hawk Ride Gameplay Video

November 9, 2009

I was just watching this Tony Hawk Ride video over at Joystiq and initially thought “cool”, which then turned to “oh” and moved rapidly on to “crap…”.
It seems that Activision and the venerable Mr Hawk have re-invented the Tony Hawk games, by just adding a new controller. The mile long grinds and cartoon, arcade [...]

The Best Skate 2 Video Yet

February 6, 2009

This just has to be the best Skate 2 video I have seen so far.
The quality of the Skate 2 vids are getting so much better since the release of the Skate 2 filmer pack which allows you to have better cameras and more effects.
Man.  This stuff is sweet.

Skate 2 Solo I think (Realisticness) Thanks [...]

January 10, 2009

It looks like the “demo hackers” have already worked out how to escape the confines of the Skate 2 demo that was released on the Xbox Live Marketplace recently.
Check out this video from BackoffBoredom I found on YouTube for the details:

EA Skate Session Spots

December 22, 2008

Ok. I have something to admit. I have not yet completed EA Skate!
What?
I get too hung up skating single spots over and over again rather than cruising down hills or completing objectives set by a “homie”.  I stick to my skating roots and session a spot, then move on.

Skate 2 Intro Video

December 18, 2008

The new intro video for Skate 2 has been posted on YouTube and features the cast of the game in a somewhat low key prison scene.
Ray Barbee is the gun toting guard and Jerry Hsu sits staring at a giant panda.
It’s not quite as “in your face” as the previous intro video to EA Skate [...]

Skitching

December 12, 2008

Ok…
I’m getting scared now.
Skitching(i.e. “ski-hitching” or “skate-hitching”) is the act of hitching a ride on the rear bumper of a car when there is ice or slick snow on the roads. It is also sometimes commonly referred to as Bumper Hitching. This can also be done with a skateboard or roller skates in urban areas [...]

October 16, 2008

Another amazing “old” skate video here.
Santa Cruz – Streets On Fire.
This video will probably be most remembered for the Natas Kaupas section in the back streets of LA.Natas was once the person who was able to ollie the highest and his signature deck had such a small tail it was hard not to pop a [...]

Powell Peralta Public Domain Video

October 15, 2008

Thanks to Chandler, who commented on the Why Skate 2 Will Suck post – for reminding me of the Powell Peralta classic video – “Public Domain”.
When this video came out I was in the midst of my skating prime.  I’m sure we had a friend who bought this and we kept on borrowing it all [...]

Video Of The Week #3

March 28, 2008

[youtube]L4F-7jSxPQ0[/youtube]
An excellent, all out, balls to the grindstone, full speed technical smash of EA Skate action.
It’s a little “Hawk” at times – but great stuff!

Video Of The Week – boom!

February 5, 2008

Someone sent me a link to this video the other day and I thought it was excellent.
It’s not quite related to skateboarding games as such (at all!), but it is certainly a good use of technology to capture some slow motion tricks with an added extra.
From the Lakai Fully Flared video. Want it? Get it [...]
