Skateboarding 1987 vs 2008

Here’s a cool contrast. The skateboard game I played as a wee lad and the stuff they are producing today. We have come a long way. It’s hard to decide if these new games are more fun then the old stuff. Of course the graphics, realism, controls and tricks are far superior but there was just something simple but hard at the same time with the old. Nothing like sticking a huge 540 on the half pipe in Sk8 or Die. Oh well, I can play both now if I want. I’m not complaining.
