Ridiculous, unrealistic physics were what made the game so much fun, as we barreled through the Pipe Works, unable to stop but able to flip out of the pipe and into a skate park twenty metres below. Nobody will tell you this was a perfect game, but Skate 3’s imperfections were what made the game so endearing, especially for me, and in future the Skate reboot may be ultra realistic and clean of glitches, but the soul of the last game remains.

Part of the fun was the over the top campaign. At the start of Skate 3 you wake up after gaining amnesia from a failed trick, and you’re instantly back into skate training. You learn from Coach Frank, a completely insane PE teacher looking man who can apparently skate as well as shout instructions. It’s after passing this incredibly serious skate training that you partner up to begin your board selling career.Įverything you do as part of the Skate 3 campaign sells boards. You complete a deathrace? Here’s some boards sold. You win a street contest? More boards sold. You do a Hall Of Meat challenge and break fifteen bones? Boards. I still to this day have no idea how your character in Skate 3 sold boards by breaking his back in five different ways, but that’s the magic of Skate 3. There’s so many different ways to progress the campaign that it never gets boring. Own The Spot, Team Contests, Photo Shoots, all are completely different ways to earn board sales in this game. As a wise person once said, any publicity is good publicity, and Skate 3 really grasps this mantra by the head and creates an incredibly fun game around it.Īs all games go however, the campaign can only be as good as the mechanics themselves.
All skate 3 glitches pro#
Even today, with games such as Rider’s Republic and Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 Remake, nothing even comes close to how much fun your character is to control in Skate 3. Right stick controls your board and feel, left stick controls direction, and press A to go. What could be simpler and yet provide more of a skill ceiling than that? Left trigger controls left hand, and right trigger to control right hand these controls were designed by players, not someone looking to cram as many controls as possible to confuse the player and add to an already expansive pool of moves and tricks.

It’s so easy to pick up and play that I’ve taught mates and family alike how to do tricks, and it never takes long before they become pro skaters.
