So with thousands of goozex points at my disposal, I figured I'd ask the crowd here what you think is the best skateboarding game made for the 360?

I remember playing Tony Hawk's Pro Skater for the Nintendo 64- or was it the game cube (yes, it's been a while since I've played one) and thought that it was pretty cool, but that's my last exposure to any skating on a console.

Anyone have recommendations? I prefer not to blow too many points on one, but if it's the mac-daddy of console skating, then I'd consider it.

Thanks in advance!

I loved skate. Great controls and fun game modes other than just scoring combos.

Skate.

skate. hands down but skate 2 comes out in Jan.

Skate or Die for the NES

Skate.

End of thread.

Well, now I just HAVE to post something!

Yup skate. but skate.2 is coming soon.

I second Skate or Die

Cool..... Skate it is. With Skate2 coming out shortly, I may hold off on trading for it since it should drop another couple hundred of points once the sequal's released.

Thanks guys! :cool:

Damn I pumped a small fortune into that game back in the day. lol

Damn I pumped a small fortune into that game back in the day. lolIf you remember "pumping a small fortune into a skating game," I think you're referring to 720 (where the phrase "skate or die!" frequently appeared). Skate or Die (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skate_Or_Die) was an NES game, while 720 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/720%C2%B0) was an arcade game.

@OP: as everyone else here agrees, skate. is the game for you. Though it still pales in comparison to Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 & 3.

I'd say Skate also; TH needs to change up the franchise a bit as the last few versions were too similar.

Yes, I pumped a LOT of quarters into 720 in my day.... watch out for those bees!

As a follow-up, the best biking/bmx game is Paperboy and the best dirt bike game is Excitebike.

So the best car racing game is rc pro am? Does that make the best cola rc cola as well?

Best "off-road" racing goes to:

RC Pro Am was a toy car racing game, silly. Pole Position is the best car racing game, though you could also make an argument for Super Sprint.

The best cola would be 1950's era Coke in a glass bottle.

Beeron - agreed with your pick for offroad.

You dont know about Ivan Stewart's Off Road Racing..

I am the MASTER at that game.

I love the wheel that spins endlessly on the arcade game. Maybe they could remaster it and supply some force-feedback support.

You would be correct sir.

Skate kills any and all skateboarding games. I've hated the Tony Hawk games for many versions now, but It really makes Tony Hawk seem pathetic by comparison now.
