Take a video tour of Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Plaza in Skate 2

Yeah, seriously... I mean the songs on the soundtrack aren't bad, but why should I have to bother with them when I have 5,000+ songs on my hard drive?

What are you talking about? Skate 2 has trophies, although I do want Sony to implement the XMB music player universally without developers implementing it in their games, like the Xbox 360. I wonder why Sony left that out..

I'm talking about the DLC not coming with additional trophies, like it does on 360.

The demo is pretty misleading, it's hard as hell though, but that's coming from a non skateboarder and a fan of old school tony hawk games

The demo was *VERY* misleading. I had to play through it a few times before I started to like it. Then basically I realized it's the same as skate 1, but with a much more fleshed out trick system.

I purchased Skate 2 on day 1 and have played it non-stop since. It's got awesome online co-op missions (if you have RL friends to play with), new modes, a much more lax missions system. It lets your warp to missions when you feel like doing them, or if not just feel free to cruise. The demo initially turned me off because it felt very arcadey, very rushed, and completely out of context for the series. Thank god that was just the demo though.

That's my full initial reaction and growth of the demo. If that matches your feelings, you'll probably like the full version.

I love Skate 2. That's really all I can offer.

Yeah, i was worried about Skate 2 when i played the demo, but i purchased it on day 1 anyway and now i have put well over 30 hours into it. I really love this game and i'm going to get this dlc as soon as i can afford to buy some points.

the demo is really bad, but that didnt stop me i was still addicted to it. i loved skate 1 though, and bought skate 2 on day 1 and i must say its even better than the first the hall of meat challenges sold me. i dont wanna spoil the game but theres some serious ass drops in this game.

You will not regret it. Its better than Skate. They added a lot of nice little things. Its in no way perfected but its a worthy sequel to Skate.

The ability to get off your board (even though those controls are rather odd) and run up stairs becomes very, very handy.

I can't think of anything misleading about the demo whatsoever, except maybe that the frame rate was much more stable than it turned out being in the retail game.

I went and picked up a copy of skate 2 and it is definitely worth it. Demo sucks balls, but the game rules. Thanks, guys.

Needs more cowbell!!!
