Skate 2 has the newest roster of tricks, which is what skateboarding is all about. It also has a new rebuilt city and multiplayer games. Let's see the Career Mode of Skate 2.
Skate 2's career mode starts with a great video featuring the roster of professional skaters available on the game. You start the career mode once you have created your own character. There are new gears and clothing available for your character. You can even make custom graphics on Skate 2's official website and use it as a design on a blank t-shirt that you like. Once your character is ready, you'll now try to go back to your glory days as the Skater of the Year in the original game.
To reclaim your glory, you have to be on the cover of the hottest magazine for skateboarding - The Skateboard Mag and Thrasher. You now have to become friends with camera mans and photographers to get attention. They'll have you do a series of tasks that will get harder and harder. They'll give you exposure with the shots they take as you skate. You can also try to join competitions like Street Contests, Tranny Contests and Downhill Races. You'll be meeting the pros as the game progresses. If you beat their challenges, they'll let you access their gears and sponsors. You can also make friends with people who will help you stop security guards, get rid of skate-stoppers, and sap the swimming pools if you wish to.
You gain money from completing challenges. And a new feature in this game lets you purchase properties with the money you've earned. These properties can be your own skater's paradise, as these places are useful for skating.
You can also earn money by injuring yourself. The new feature, the Hall of Meat, gives you challenges that involve hurting yourself from skating. They can also store information on your worst wipeouts and turn it to mini-achievements like getting hit by a car and getting 24,000 points on bodily damage in one drop. You can then sell the footages to Thrasher to earn more money.
The graphics on Skate 2 has been improved. The original has 30 frames per second, but Skate 2 doubles it to create smoother images. This will make a game that already has a good graphics even better. Skate 2's for Sale next week, so be sure to save up your money to get this awesome game.
