Skate or Die 2.. . You might die before you finish it
I loved the original Skate or Die. Chances are that you're looking to purchase this one for the same reason. And, you're probably reading this review to see if it will stack up to the original... So.. Does it???
It's a unique twist on the game. Skate or Die 2 is a skating adventure game. You start out skating in a city where you need to build up your item inventory and get better boards.
After the city, you'll find yourself as a delivery boy in a shopping mall and even gathering scattered plans to a new half pipe on the beach. Until the last level....
The last level is practically impossible to beat. You must navigate your way through a construction site to win the game. I was confused until I consulted the walkthrough on the net and found out that you must go through over 20 different stages, navigate the floors exactly correct, while fighting off enemies the whole time...... Yikes
So will you like it? I loved the game right up until the end. Good luck beating it. I watched some guy on YouTube do it and he took him forever. It's a fun game but not being able to beat it is frustrating. However, you don't have to beat the game to play the ramp.
All in All, its a fun game. The levels are all different and add an element of challenge not found in the previous one. So, if you can live without beating the last level, you'l like the game.
