So it was pretty fun but I think I'm getting bored with skateboarding games since it's pretty much the same formula (perform that trick, nail that grind, gap over the half-pipes, etc.). But it was fun to learn a new way of skateboarding after being so used to the TH games.
I really like SKATE too, I enjoy the TH games a bit still but SKATE just completely blew my mind. The fun for me is just casually riding around town, nailing a flip trick to a grind and then jumping off in a nice, fluid motion. That feels more sastifying then a half a million combo in Tony Hawk.
Skate footage
I managed to put some skate footage up, it's nothing mind blowing though since I'm not that good at the game.

I'm still playing Fire Emblem and Super Mario Galaxy for the Wii but I've been having a feeling of playing Resident Evil for the past week. So right now I'm playing from the start of the series with RE0 all the way to RE4. RE0 is my second least favorite of the entire series so playing through it is a bit of a struggle but I'm determined to see it through.
