    In skating terms, this game's success is more than just dropping in on a vert ramp for the first time without eating it face-first. Shaun White Skateboarding has some tricks in its back pocket, and I look forward to it expanding its arsenal in the future.

    Ubisoft deserves credit for its effort to create a different skating experience. Bending rails and ramps in succession feels like being on a morphing rollercoaster ride, and the shifting cityscape is a treat for the eyes. Unfortunately the rest of the game plays it safe with missions and features one could find in any other skating title.

    An unexpectedly daring mix of Jet Set Radio and de Blob, that may lack in realism or plausibility but certainly not in imagination and fun.

    Shaun White's latest appearance isn't good enough.

    While it doesn't do anything wrong, it's impossible to take the plot seriously. [Issue#66, p.89]

    For huge fans of experimental gameplay, the skateboarding genre or Shaun, it still comes recommended. For everyone else, maybe catch the Flying Tomato where he's still best -- on the slopes.

    Skate taps into a state of mind. Shaun White is just a succession of awkward obstacles posing as challenges in a game with bad controls and clunky animation.

    Shaun White Skateboarding is a horrible game,which gets completely destroyed by any of the Skate games.

    The game has the cool concept of    Shaun White Skateboarding is a horrible game,which gets completely destroyed by any of the Skate games.

    The game has the cool concept of 'molding' the world by doing tricks.This is literally the only thing that stops this game from getting a 0.

    The controls are awful andthe trick system is broken.

    The graphics are atrocious,and the framerate makes the game nearly unplayable.

    The soundtrack and sound design are abysmal too.

    Overall,Shaun White Skateboarding is an absolutely epic fail!    … Expand
