"It'd probably be quicker to list the areas in which Skate didn't innovate, so great was its impact on the skateboarding genre, and so far above and beyond the competition was its gameplay. We won't do that, but we will keep it brief. Skate. . . had a learning curve that – like the real thing – just kept on going, and gave players a greater sense of physicality than most other videogames. . . This was a game where you'd session good spots for the fun of it, practising tricks and lines, experimenting, revelling in the way your board realistically connected with rails and ledges. The days of pushing buttons were over when Skate came along. Brilliant." - IGN Australia
