This game has some awsome graphics and really shows off the power of the 360. There's also lots of cool new wepons to try. I did think that the single player campaign was on the short side. It should've been a bit longer, cause it was so much fun to play!

I found the "Flickit" control system really cool! It is a realistic way to control the skater. But, it'll take some getting used to, after playing the THPS games for so long. Timing tricks is fairly difficult though, and the low camera angle makes it tough to line up properly, as your character blocks alot of the view.
I still find it fun to play, and am looking forward to unlocking the X-Games stadium!
