skate 3: witty title under construction

UEAKCrash

So who is all getting this shit tomorrow?

xzzy

I probably have it sitting at home right now.. EA shipped out nearly everyone's a day early for some reason.

SoaL

people actually did the challenges in SKATE?

I just grabbed my guy and skated around the city finding neat places and spending too much time fiddling around at them and setting up cool stuff

Strangely, some people actually do the many things games have on offer. I've heard tell that people even play GTA games for the story...

SoaL

thats fucked up

One of my favourite things in Skate 2 was those "own the spot" things.

Man i loved those.

Also yes, many many mmmmaaaannnynyyyy hours were spent just fiddling around with shit.

But still, you had to unlock some of the cooler areas.

The 360 metatag only has 14 people on it. We should fix that.

Tell me about it. I'm one of them. (GTA story players)

We're here, we're gear! Get used to it.

Skate 3 comes out tomorrow

I can't be bothered with skate 2.

Spoiler:

mostly cause i foolhardedly traded it in long ago...

what was i thinking

Who wants to make the new thread? I'm not on the forums as much lately, so it'd be best if someone else took it.

All I ask is that the person continue to use my "Lords of Dongtown" movie poster.
And being unemployed I probably wont be getting the game for a couple of months myself.

i'd be up for it, i am getting skate 3 tomorrow so i'll work on an OP tonight.

Those who wanted to unlock more places to skate.

I hope some of my local shops has the game on sale already. Official release date here is 1-2 days away.

So how do I go about forming up a team? Or inviting you guys into it at least.

I assume it's the same team I created for single player, and I suck people into it?

I got the game in the mail today.. still acclimating, it feels like a skate game and hardcore mode is pretty punishing.

edit - oh, heh the online features aren't available yet. good going EA, mail me a game, and no turn it on

cooljammer00

I thought it was a blessing, but it was really...a CURSE!

troublebrewing

Have Skate 3 coming in the mail so I'll be checking the thread for what the team info, whatever is.

Ah_Pook

im pretty excited to be getting this in the mail tomorrow, yep. i never played skate 2 for whatever reason, but skate 1 was a lot of fun.

Thanks Independent for the spoiler!

I have to select my language preference every time I start the game?

Seriously?

What the fuck, EA.

UEAKCrash

That's lame.

Also, Xzzle, if I'm not on your team I sweeearrr to fuck...

xzzy

Seems like none of the online features are turned on yet, I get a bunch of errors when I start the game up.

I'll make Lord of Dongtown tomorrow, unless someone beats me to it.

Nocren

Wonder if they'll be turned on tomorrow (today). Hopefully I'll have this on friday.

So how is it? My xbox did the no video/GPU error thing. Got it home and no gaming before work. Fudge! Ill try to look at the doorstop when I get home from work...but damn it hurts

And it looks like I'm buying an Arcade! UGH. I guess its ok...my xbox lasted since when the first Skate came out.

exis

Okay I have not being following Skate 3 at all. I got a LOT of playtime out of Skate 2. Hell, I randomly loaded it up for a few hours on Saturday. But without having looked at any of the new stuff, I'm wondering why I would buy #3 when #2 is still pretty awesome.

So for those of you that have played it... should I?

Was good skating with you guys last night. I'm rusty, but it's coming back.

Its amazing how much a shiny new controller makes the game easier and more enjoyable. And hardcore makes everything more satisfying. Got a heelflip tail on a rail...to kickflip the gap...to nollie flip boardslide the ledge..WOW!
