Can't believe I missed this thread. I LOVE Skate 3. Played it more than any other game, ever. I still play it to this day. When I play other games like The Show or 2K, I get bored with the structure (why can't I go out of bounds, why do I have to pitch when I want to hit, what's with these time limits, etc.). So I pop in Skate 3, and it's amazing.
Skate 3 is the best in the series, too. Just for kicks, I played Skate 3, followed by the prior two Skate games and Tony Hawk's Underground. It was night and day as far as the breadth of tricks, the ability to go where you want, and the Object Dropper to make your own spots. It is so rewarding to land a trick on Hardcore mode with a kickflip or ollie that isn't fully compressed on the stick.
Great game, and the more I play it, the more I think of additions that they can make. Unfortunately, it looks like this last game will actually be the last. Good thing it doesn't get old.
