If they marketed this as a 'party game,' it was likely for the intoxicated, and even they would probably resort to destroying the board. Actually bending down to 'grab' the sensors just makes you look like a jackass and most of the time it doesn't work. Maybe it's because there's a lot of crap in my room that throws off the sensors, but come on. Grabs and Flip tricks are done by rotating the board in certain ways, but it's barely responsive. It's wildly inconsistent and will more often than not have you going into a wall. The higher two require you to steer on your own, by tilting the board left and right. Noob difficulty puts you on a defined path, so you only have to worry about jumping and pulling off tricks. You do get three control schemes: Noob, Horrid, and Ungodly (yes, I did substitute those names, if only because they are more accurate).

Each stage has 3 challenges (tricking for score, racing for time, and challenges that require certain tricks at certain points), but its sabotaged by the bad control. I haven't gotten very far in this game, but the levels are far from unique in design. Playing this on a flat surface has got to be an absolute nightmare. My only complaint with the board itself it that is slides around like a mother effer on my floor, which happens to be carpet. The sensors are strategically located on every side of the compass (North, South, East, and West sides) and, in theory, work as advertised. It's very durable and able to withstand a beating, and looks nice enough to boot. The soundtrack is of good audio quality, but the actual track-list is passable.Д«ut now lets talk about the controller. The levels aren't exactly 'open ended' and just look awful. It took me a while to find something to compare to, but it looks like a wimpy version of Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam (that was a Wii launch game), with horrid load times. and this is going to be ugly, but we'll leave the controls out for a bit.

Neversoft, the original team, decided they were too busy pumping out 8 Guitar Heroes every year, thus they abandoned the series that put them on the map, and shafted development to Robomodo: a team I'm sure no one knew existed.Д«ut now for the actual game. to fail.ДЇirst off, it's important to note it's not the same development team doing this as the rest of the games. The newest installment: 'Ride,' tries to innovate with a unique controller, but bails harder then Proving Ground could ever hope. Project 8, the first 'true' next gen game in the series, was mind-blowing, but the followup: Proving Ground, was 'meh' at best. Sure, Underground 1, 2, and 3 (3 AKA American Wasteland) were a little stupid (Wheel of loogies, anyone?), but they were still fun to play.

Though the series peaked in 2001 with Pro Skater 3, the quality has remained consistent. The Tony Hawk games have always been of high quality and enjoyment.
