Thrasher: Skate & Destroy

"I found when the character falls or lands wrong, separating you from the skateboard, it….just…..seems….to….go….into….slow….motion….until…you…land."

"If you're really into skating and want a more realistic (and difficult) take on the sport, then definitely give Thrasher: Skate and Destroy a try."

"...the real thrill comes from linking together four or five flips, grabs, and grinds on and over different obstacles, like walls, tables, and cars."

"Control issues aside, there are other aspects of this game that I liked a whole lot, especially in the bells-and-whistles department. For instance, the soundtrack is fresh for '88...um, I mean '99."

"...after playing Thrasher and Tony Hawk back to back all weekend, I ended up liking Thrasher the most because of one thing -- Control. The amount of control you have over every single move, over your speed, and over all of the timing is technically superior."
