Skate 3 Review

I'd have to agree with whoever said Skate1 > Skate 2 > Skate 3.

This is truly a shame.

But, after buying Skate 2 over the weekend for 20 bucks, and having to deal with the god awful frame rate issues for the PS3 version (seems worse than the first skate) it seems that equation is truth.

This series has so much potential. I don't see why they can't makes this run in a smooth fashion. No excuse for it.

Skate 3 retail isn't smooth either?

The first Skate has a constant framerate, but at 30 FPS I don't know if I am satisfied with the sacrifice that's made for it.

Gamespot said there were F.R.I. in Skate 3. So sad. I would rather have 20 FPS than the issues that are in Skate 2.

Gotta agree with this. I wasn't too keen on it when it first came out, but have gotten back into playing it and think it's a near masterpiece.

I'm playing it on the 360 and don't see any frame rate issues. I've also looked into the park creator a bit more and now realize just how cool of a feature it is, something I didn't see before because I didn't spend much time with it.

I think mainly it's just the bitterness I had towards Skate 2 is finally gone, because I can now say Skate 3 is a flat out great game.

The only real framerate issues I get are in skate parks (it gets hit badly), but that's on PS3.

Skate 3 is awesome, and I finally have some free time to play it.

I don't think I've played this since I beat it after launch. Wow. I still have it, I might throw it in now. Maybe start it over. Damn this thread for giving me the itch.

It doesn't help that I'm now looking for a game to play, since I bought Fallout: New Vegas and then discovered that RPG games really aren't for me.

Skate 3 is awesome i can't get the manual out of trick , but love darksliders and team concept is really cool.

I ended up playing it for 6 and a half consecutive hours that day until like 6 in the morning.
