  • Summary: MTV Skateboarding is a perfect example of cashing in on a recently established genre, yet unlike games like Street Sk8er 2 or Grind Session, it doesn't bring anything worthwhile to the table.

  1. Although it has some cool secret characters and a neat build-a-mountain feature, the single-player modes are a little too easy.

    It's not a terrible game, and if someone were trapped on a long flight with nothing but this game and a PSOne, they could do a lot worse.
  3. Painful to play, painful to watch, foolish to purchase.
  4. CNET Gamecenter

    A slovenly title that drowns in its own inferiority.
  5. Horrible control, lousy graphics, and a migraine-inducing frame rate all add up to one of the worst games on the market. If you want skateboarding action, just stick to Tony Hawk.
  6. In practice, however, the game's ugly textures, poor frame rate, and clunky gameplay combine to make MTV Skateboarding one of the worst PlayStation games released this year.

    Not bad, THPS is a tad better.
