It's been 5 long years since your "mysterious" disappearance from the skate scene, and in your absence things most definitely have changed. A mega-corporation has changed the face of city - now it's up to you to fight back and help re-build the skate scene in New San Vanelona.

Features:
  • Inverts, one-foots, hippy jumps, finger flips, the list goes on..
  • A new look and feel to the city... time to make New San Van a skater's paradise.
  • Put the two of them together, create your own spots, and you've got sick new game play.
  • Hall of Meat: Broken bones anyone?
  • New and improved skate.Reel: It's back and better than ever.

Review by Jay on 14th January, 2009
5 stars "Skate One... Times Two"
After freeroaming much of the city I can say this game is everything Skate one was, times two. No complys, Bonelesses, One Foots, Tripod Cameras and much more new features make this a great addition to the Skate franchise.

Once again, EA made a smart move making this game. Sucks that BlackBox closed though.

5 stars "Going to be awesome"
It's going to be great, Skate was a truly ground-breaking game and has blown Tony Hawk out of the water, with the absence of getting off your board, it was obvious Skate 2 would bring it in. That and with more tricks, what more could you want? Game of 09 for me: :D

5 stars "Hella-tight"
In the words of thrasher magazine yes this game is going to be hella-tight apparently it will feature SOTY-2007 Marc Jonson as well as many more also last I heard you can finally hop off your board! This game is made for skaters by skaters so I'm definitely buying


Peace

Review by Kelvin on 29th April, 2009
5 stars "Awesome."
This game is Awesome. Very very fun to play (Once you've figured out the controls). Much like the first Skate but with some more added tricks.

You can now get off you're board and move objects so you can nail a perfect line, jump cars.. Whatever you want to do. Only annoying thing is the walking/running. Its hard to get the skater to walk/run straight without veering off in random directions.

Also some of the challenges in this game are very hard to complete.. Which is a good thing i guess but to me some of them are just too gnarly.

HALL OF MEAT!.. You get awards and Points for breaking bones, doing tricks in the air (Whilst Bailing), Air Time, Rotations. This is very fun.

Overall this game is Excellent. So many good features.

Review by Bradley on 10th April, 2009
5 stars "AWESOME"
Skate 2. Absolutely the best skating SIM by far. The controls, though not quiet realistic, provide a far better gaming experience than that of the button-bashing Tony Hawk style.
The game simulates tricks far better than the previous version, and the trick list has more than doubled to include more street and vert tricks, whilst still keeping the speed skating key.
It's a great alternitive if you can't get a lift or it's raining to go to the skate park!
