Skate 3 - Playstation 3

I recently had the pleasure of diving into the exhilarating world of Skate 3 on my PlayStation 3, and I must say, it has been an absolutely fantastic experience. From the moment I started playing, I was hooked by the game’s immersive and dynamic gameplay. One of the standout features of Skate 3 is its incredibly realistic physics engine. The way the skateboard responds to my inputs feels so natural and lifelike, making every trick and maneuver feel satisfying and rewarding. Whether I’m performing a simple ollie or attempting a complex flip trick, the controls are intuitive and responsive, allowing for a seamless skateboarding experience. The game’s open-world environment is another highlight. The sprawling city of Port Carverton is a skater’s paradise, filled with diverse locations to explore and conquer. From bustling urban streets to serene parks and challenging skateparks, there’s always something new to discover. The attention to detail in the environment is impressive, with each area offering unique challenges and opportunities for creative skating. Skate 3 also excels in its customization options. I love being able to create my own skater, complete with personalized outfits and gear. The ability to design custom skateparks is a fantastic addition, allowing me to unleash my creativity and build the ultimate skating playground. Sharing these creations with the community adds an extra layer of fun and engagement. The game’s career mode is both engaging and rewarding. Building my own skateboarding team and taking on various challenges and competitions has been a blast. The sense of progression and achievement as I complete objectives and unlock new content keeps me coming back for more. The inclusion of cooperative and competitive multiplayer modes adds even more depth to the experience, allowing me to skate with friends and showcase my skills. Visually, Skate 3 is stunning. The graphics are crisp and detailed, bringing the world of skateboarding to life. The animations are smooth and fluid, capturing the essence of real-life skating. The soundtrack is another highlight, featuring a diverse mix of tracks that perfectly complement the game’s energetic vibe. In conclusion, Skate 3 for PlayStation 3 is a must-have for any skateboarding enthusiast. It's realistic gameplay, expansive open world, and extensive customization options make it a standout title in the genre. I’ve had countless hours of fun exploring, creating, and mastering tricks. This game truly captures the thrill and excitement of the sport, and I’m thrilled to have it as part of my gaming collection.

I was a fan of Tony hawk back on ps1 all the way up to Tony hawk underground 2 after that Tony Hawk games were dull and boring. I bought this game because the game is literally hilarious when you watch the glitches this game has to offer on Youtube. The game is awesome and the controls are perfect once you get the hang of them. You control the skater in a much more enjoyable way then all skating games before it that mostly involve button mashing. This game is all about the analog sticks, flick the right stick to jump hold a trigger to grab and so on. The game world is great the way they figured out how to make a world that looks both believable & built for skating is just amazing. The game is also open world in single player without a single loading screen for new areas. As for the world in multiplayer the game comes short of being good. In multiplayer the maps are enclosed barrier versions of some but not all the areas in Single Player and on top of that there are no physics objects or AI. This made me wish that a skate 4 would come out and the map in multiplayer would be open world. The game was great it has a lot of replay value for me and some others I know. I got the game brand new so I could share my skate parks and videos online. (HOW TO PLAY ONLINE NO KEY NEEDED) Allot of people say the game comes with an ONLINE KEY just to play ONLINE but that is entirely untrue. The game Does come with a KEY but its only for sharing your skate parks and video replays as well downloading other users skate parks and watching replays. I played the game online before I entered the KEY it's just hard to figure out because EAs servers wont let you create an Online Team or access anything EA Server Related 70% of the time. So you don't need the key, you just select a park and choose private match then invite your friend. This was the only problem I had with this game was figuring out how to play online with my friend.

Bought this like 7 years ago and I still have it. Incredible game.

Would buy again

Since Skate 1 originally launched, I've been a huge fan of this series. The games in this series all make you feel like a badass and make you do crazy stuff, while still being somewhat realistic. What makes this game stand out from the previous two is that it has perfected the mechanics of the games. Besides a couple of bugs I've noticed, they've fixed the on foot moving, they've fixed how long it used to take after you bailed, they've fixed all the little annoyances in the series. I will admit, I was skeptical of how this game would do, as it didn't seem like it had anything going for it. Skate was this all new revolutionary game, and Skate 2 took that and made it bigger and allowed you to walk. Where do you go from there? You get the little things right. Of course some new locales were put in, but its just great to see how all my gripes that I used to whine about Skate 1 and 2 are gone. No more, why does my character walk so awkwardly, why does it take so long for this guy to stand up, why can't I do Darkslides/Underflips, why can't I do Hall Of Meat whenever I want instead of just when an amazing bail occurs. Its a game that. for me, got everything right this time, and it was worth the $60.
