It's like crack.
I'm a big fan of being able to move things around, but not a huge fan of the other skaters screwing it up.
Ehh, 666 lol

Dude, you can fix that. When you drag something around, look at the options in the top left. left/ right on the d-pad add or remove items to your spawn point. So say I set up to jump onto a dumpster, set my spawn point, then drag the ramp in place. I hit right on the d-pad (or left, I dont remember) and any time you go back to your spawn point, it will re-set the ramp right where you had it. Works for rails and crap too. But yes, fantastic game. I was in love with skate 1 and played it all the way through, and still wanted more. I was a bit worried skate 2 had dropped the ball but it certainly didn't. Tons of little improvements over the first one make it way better. |

I'm not a fan of the controls but I agree the game looks very nice. I prefer the more simplistic and unrealistic gameplay of the early THPS games.

Yeah, as I mentioned there are TONS of little changes from skate 1 that make such a difference. That's certainly one of them. Also, money has a point now, as you can buy property (aka skateparks) to use. |

| Woo hoo, I was commenting on live the other day that I wished they still had the x-games center, and it turns out they pretty much do. It's a bit different, but still fun. Harder to land in skate 2 though, and its pretty much just megaramps, no boxes or anything like in the first one. |

| Yeah, I was stoked to see that still existed, and was actually improved upon. Get the 2nd half (fun track) of the mega compound yet? Some sweet gaps |
