    Much, much better. There is a more lengthy discussion in the xbox forum under consoles Jaggeh. Landing into and out of manuals is not too hard, a little downward or upward pressure on the stick and you got it, don't be too eager! :D

    Fantastic game, unfortunatly I only rented it for a week.

    interesting. i asked on another forum and got a similar response. of late EA have impressed me. they were smacked about by Activision for a few months and they're taking them on face first... but with extra bits and pieces (army of two, orange box, burnout paradise)

    The Skate demo was really good. I don't like skating and got board of Tony Hawks long ago, but the demo of this really impressed me.

    Unfortunately there's just too many other great games around at the moment to warrant a purchase of this, but if I saw it cheap in the future I probably would.

    This is the best game I have played on the 360, without doubt.

    Exactly my situation. I have to finish Halo, HL2, Assassins Creed, PES2008, CoD4 etc. before I'll get skate.

    Fantastic game, The size and scale of the city is pretty amazing. The ability to create a spawn point is a genius addition.
    There are some cases of slow down at certain areas when there are a few people on screen which can be annoying.

    Tony Hawk wont be getting any of my cash this year.
