Summary


MTV Skateboarding featuring Andy MacDonald is a top quality skateboarding simulation. Skateboarding is an exciting and exhilarating sport and those are two important elements to capture when translating the sport into a game. MTV Skateboarding does just that and more. Now you don’t need to practice solidly for several years to skate like a pro. If you are a skater who hates the rain, the weather is no longer a problem because you can now skateboard in your own living room.

In case you don’t know Andy MacDonald is one of the most influential skateboarders of the last decade. Not only does he skate both vert ramp and street, he has no less than five X-games gold medals under his belt. There are 14 professional skaters to choose from as well an additional 16 fictional boarders. There is a massive amount of tricks on offer in this game, well over 60 real tricks to master. Each one of these tricks can be linked together to create high-scoring combinations. The harder you try and push you skater the higher the difficulty involved.

MTV Skateboarding has several different modes to keep you entertained. These include single-player, lifestyle, deathmatch, freeskate and finally stunt mode. This variety of gameplay will keep the game fresh. The clothes and equipment in MTV Sports will be authentic because of the licensing deals with the top names in the business. Because MTV is involved in the making of this game you can expect the soundtrack to be kicking. Bands include Snapcase, Goldfinger, OPM, Deftones and Cypress Hill to name just a few. If Skatebording games are your bag, MTV Skateboarding deserves investigating.
