In my opinion, the franchise that dethroned the venerable Tony Hawk series as the best skating games in town is beginning to cross that same bridge. It just seems like too many similar titles in too short a time span, and I feel like Skate‘s time on top of the cage is coming to an end. But if you’re still interested in the series, the newest entry looks to place a major emphasis on team-work and co-op play.

As a side note, don’t those animations look terrible for a game coming out in the year 2010? There’s nothing remotely realistic about them. “Balancing” during a grind looks about as good as it did back in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3. Come on, now.
