    Won't hold the Tony Hawk pro's attention for long, but it's still a fun, well-designed skating game.

    There's nothing to complain about in terms of the game's controls or its trick system; they've been tuned to perfection. [Oct/Nov 2003, p.87]

    Minor grumbles, which hardly undermine the effusive charm and proven appeal of the Disney licence(s). As a gift for hyperactive siblings, it hits the spot. As an Extreme Skate Adventure, it lacks the power of 'X'. Tony Hawk, perhaps?

    You'll notice that the Xbox version is the better of the bunch. All console versions are colorful and share the same characters and expansive environments but the Xbox just presents it better.

    Apart from the soundtrack that will make your ears bleed (Thank goodness you can switch it off! ) this is one of the best kiddies type game around.

Overall, the best kid game on XBox (coming from someone that normally hates skate/extreme sport and Disney licenced games) 8/10 score based on being 6 years old.… Full Review »
