MTV Skateboarding: Decent, but you can do better.

Skateboard games go way back... from the old time "Skate or Die" for the Nintendo to the Tony Hawk games, they've been lots of fun. This game, though, tries to copy the magic of Tony Hawk, but doesnt do it as well. I'm not saying that its a bad game, its got pretty good graphics, a decent career mode, lots of moves, but it just doesn't have the feel of Tony Hawk 1 or 2. It, at first, seems more difficult (than THPS), until you become able to pull high scoring tricks with ease. Even though some of the levels are very well designed, and look very cool, the only point of the game is to pull the biggest tricks in 2 minutes. Once in a while, you have to collect little pictures also, but you can collect them, and THEN you still have to pull the biggest tricks in 2 minutes. It is way too easy also... I finished the game in about 2 hours. There are some decent songs on the soundtrack, but the music slows the game down during fast movement. MTV Skateboarding is a decent try, but just wait for the Tony Hawk 2 for the PC to be released.
