news 28 Posted October 19, 2008 Hi all, We have just published a hands-on preview of *Skate It! *for Nintendo Wii - if you could post a link on your site that would be very much appreciated. *Link:* http://www.bit-tech.net/gaming/2008/10/18/skate-it-hands-on-preview/1 *Picture:* http://images.bit-tech.net/content_images/2008/10/skate-it-hands-on-preview/fp_img.jpg *Quote: */Our time with Skate It! on the Wii was rewarding and enjoyable, which is probably one of the first few things anyone should really look for in a game. Though we struggled to get used to some of the Balance Board controls (jump, damn you!), the game quickly opened up and we were easily able to bust out some pretty decent moves. There's been a tendency in the past for big publishers like EA to release Wii games that are little more than gimped versions of the 'normal' version with 'family appeal', but that's a trap / /Skate It! thankfully doesn't fall into despite the new party and multiplayer modes. It may be well-suited to casual gamers and multiplayer but, y'know what? There really is some depth buried in here too. / /Skate It! isn't going to topple //Skate 2 in the eyes of most hardcore gamers, nor should it, but there's still a lot more to like here than you might suspect and //Skate It!/ is sure to go down a storm with those who prefer their consoles more active, but graphically challenged. * *Cheers guys!
