    It's not so much that it sucks balls, it's just quite uninspiring. I've not found a single spot that I could waste an hour on, like with the first two. I was so psyched by what I saw in the demo but it didn't live up to that. There's too many wasted spaces, like the quarry and the mega parks - perhaps they could have tightened those up to make them more interesting?

    I'm also stuck onthe quarry trick list, as some of the required spins and tricks are just stupidly hard (for me - I'm way more into the smaller areas that I can focus on little tricks) - I don't want to have to fork over money for the Time pack when I've only got two trick lists left to do.

    Downtown has the most fun places to go to. University has the pools and small house to house gaps that are fun. A bit of plywood makes a lot of difference.

    while the city definitely is the worst of all three i think as of now, there's still stuff to find. you just have to dig deeper. i been skating a spot last night i could have been skating in the demo. felt fresh for some reason.

    but as others said. take a break. it'll feel good when you come back.

    you could add me on PS3, but i don't play anything online there anyways.

    PSN is JestHatesYou.

    Lately though RDR, UFC, and PC Games have been taking up most of my time. The only problem that I've had with Skate 3 is the absolute frustration from the Camera. Takes me more time to edit my tricks properly than it takes to get the tricks and once I have them edited in.. the camera glitches and goes all nuts after one proper playback.

    Really takes the wind out of my sails when I realize that after the hour or two I've taken to get the trick is nothing compared to the 2-3 hours I'll spend in the editor trying to get the angles I want without it going apeshit glitchy. Only to end up giving up and saving the shitty version hoping to have the drive to come back to it later and get it correctly.

    In any case.. feel free to add me and join me in any game I'm playing. Be forewarned though. The guys I run with in most games are pretty harsh and truly enjoy griefing the shit out of people. If you're easily offended then it's probably best to just play Skate games with me (as they don't play those games).

    PC is by far the best city if the three for me. You have to dig a bit to find the special spots, and there's lots of opportunity for adding on to stuff with droppables.

    It just feels more like a real city to me.

    what flix and stevland said.
    I m not in love yet

    I still think its just about getting used to it.
    just wander and youll find something

    Pawn, i really dont know how you can say this city feels more real. Its really far from looking like a city in Europe (and im pretty sure even in the US you wont find anything similar)

    I agree with you pawn
    Especially with the implementation of plywood and object dropper...I feel like even if i cant find a natural spot..which I always seem to find...I can always just make one happen
    I feel like it makes it more rewarding landing a trick at a spot that you added on to

    and that doesn't even consider in CAP.

    you want recognizeable places to skate? look up chrisquarry on skate.create. He's done hubba hideout, love park, MACBA, Wallenburg, Rincon, and pier7.
