    Finally tried this. It does feel very different. But i think they decreased everything way too much. I'm pretty sure flat tre's are impossible. Trying to flip up anything larger than a curb is near impossible. The speed is like constant slo-mo. I did like the challenge of getting the speed and angle etc to bs flip the Love Fountain gap. And with no green and red the balance is a nice challenge to judge by the body.

    I think if they could tweak this so it's near perfect. Add some more features (longer hold X bigger pop etc.) or maybe even a new control setting. And with the motion cap animations, non cartoony looking, rl spots, stick a video editor in their and I will for sure buy that. And probaby never need another game.

    thpg is definitely not perfect but like I said before you need to switch between sim and reg mode to make up for the problems sim mode has...It only takes a few seconds to switch to sim in the in game options tho, so no biggie...And dont forget to turn the speed up to 10 while in sim mod...Also when rolling in sim mode you need to press R1(ps3) to push for more speed..

    So like if you want to do a flip trick into a grind then switch to reg and turn the speed down so when you grind its not to fast.

    Just bought it on Ebay. Looking forward to giving it a try. I played the demo a bit when it came out, i saw the sim mode, but couldnt use it in the demo. Could be fun, if for nothing else just balancing grinds and manuals. I loved how in THP8 you could just turn off the balance metre and balance manuals just by looking at how your skater was leaning.

    Yeah, I'll let you know when it comes in, should be another week or two. We'll see how it goes, I lost interest very earlier on when i was making a Thrasher vid. Either way, should be fun for at least a little while.
