Gameplayer has now gone live with their review of SKATE 2 and have revealed a major discrepancy in the frame-rates between the PS3 version and the Xbox 360.
Since the mid-90s, skateboarding games have remained a popular past time. But which are the best skateboarding games?
There is no way in hell they put the cover of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 as the thumbnail for "best skateboarding games." Good Lord.
Oh dear God the OG TH games are amazing. THUG 1 2 and THAW were badass. It's hard to pick. The EA Skate games were amazing too especially Skate 3.
Never got the chance to play Session or Skate XL but I want to try.
As far as classics...the THUG games and Pro 4 were my favs. I still play those games on my OG Xbox to this day!
Smh still no Skate on PlayStation 4 or 5. All these new budget skateboarding games are glitched trash. The new Skate will be good, but nothing will give me that crazy feeling like OG skate demo, that was a revelation
Here's a list of Xbox 360/PS3 games that would be great on the Nintendo Switch (at a modest, reasonable price of course). These games could really flourish if given a new lease on life, introducing a new generation to their greatness.
I'm sure R* knows the Nintendo Switch install base and probably dont really care to port over more R* games to the Nintendo Switch tho i gotta say playing GTA4 & RDR1 on the go on the Nintendo Switch would be dope
I would buy Lollipop Chainsaw, Alice Madness Returns, Enslaved, Splatter House, Brutal Legends, Dante's Inferno, and Dead Space for sure if they were ported to the Switch.
Deus Ex Human Revolution would be a great title to The Holy Grail of All Consoles aka The Nintendo Switch*. Also Haze Remastered, Grand Theft Auto 4 and 5 Remastered, Silent Hill HD Collection, Max Payne 3 Remastered, Call of Duty World At War Remastered, The Orange Box Remastered, Halo Master Chief Collection, Left 4 Dead 1 and 2 Remastered, Metal Gear Solid 4 Remastered, Afro Samurai Remastered, Demons Souls Remastered, Xmen Destiny Remastered, Jack and Daxter Collection, Def Jam Icon Remake, Folklore Remastered, Spiderman Edge of Time Remastered, Persona 5 remastered, the list goes on. (*Best Selling Console of All Time)
Seriously? Isn't it time Nintendo make a Switch successor? I mean they have the sales and money.
EA has announced that the Skate 2 servers for PlayStation and Xbox will be shutting down in early December 2021, bringing an end to over a decade of fun.
Game awards skate gameplay? I’d be hyped. All I’ve asked for over the years from EA is a skate sequel and a dead space 1 remaster. If they nail these games me and EA are cool. Clean slate, no hate. Do they make really dumb moves all too often? Yes. But It’s not like they are activision blizzard.
lol what a hilarious day to announce this
Props to them for keeping them up as long as they did though
Strange, demos didnt show this problem up. At least not to me. If this is accurate hopefully the devs address the problem.
Had terrible frame-rate issues for the PS3 version which was by the same developer.
If you click through the review they have more on it. Apparently Black Box have claimed to have fixed it, but the site says this is not unusual and that they can only go off the review code given to them.
I am not sure when the game goes on sale, but we'll all know for sure shortly.
Dark Sniper can boldly state that these rumors are false. Skate 2 runs at a buttery smooth 60 frames per second. All of which is possible because it's developed on PLAYSTATION®3. With it's critically and commercially acclaimed features and under the hood superiority, it's clear that Skate 2 will not have it's definitive version on PS3 but will also sell more copies.
As EA has proclaimed earlier, PLAYSTATION®3 is their cash crop for sales. Xbox 360 is a mere afterthought when it comes to develop multiplatform titles. The only reason why games are even being developed for Xbox 360 is the same reason why games are developed for PS2 and Wii, to rake in any extra cash for those willing to buy for the platform. If you want the true next generation version of Skate 2, you will need to play b3yond and buy yourself a PLAYSTATION®3.
$niper
Noticed it in the demo... Im getting this on 360 :-)
great game on both consoles... PS3's controller has more swing space for the 360 flips etc though which is neat
Didn't find those problems with the demo, so dunno. But nothing new, from EA it's been like this for almost al their games, so no surprises (just 2 days ago i was saying "great, EA redeemed itself" after trying the demo)
