Official U.S. Playstation MagazineThe overall PS2 surfing champ. [Oct 2002, p.148]
-
Game InformerCertainly playable, but without the adrenaline charge of actual surfing, it feels like I'm playing one endless Tony Hawk level. [Oct 2002, p.84]
-
Play MagazineThe replays are totally interactive, the camera can be set just about anywhere, and the control is so easily grasped, you'll be busting out moves that would take you a lifetime to learn. [Oct 2002, p.85]
-
Theres still room for a more user-friendly control scheme and fun virtual surfing experience to come down the pike.
-
Electronic Gaming MonthlyAt its core, Kelly just feels like a bare-bones version of "THPS" in the ocean. [Oct 2002, p.179]
-
Its difficult to look at Kelly Slater as anything more than a cash-in.
-
It's more successful than any other surfing game that's come before it, but its seemingly random waves and amazing physics don't entirely overcome its repetitive nature or lack of difficulty.
