I follow the rule of waiting to post permanently free games on Friday, and I always miss it -- likely partially due to Fridays being busy.

In reskate you can tweak a lot of settings that you can't in the base game. Things like gravity and what not. I haven't tried it myself yet, but pretty sure you can make it more realistic that way. If not, someone will make a mod for it, if there isn't already. I didn't hate the gameplay, but by god i wished it was more "realistic", that's the thing i liked about the series. In THPS, you had to pull a 5million shitass combo to get the same dopamine that a clead treflip boardslide gave you in skate.

Thanks for the info, I didn't know you could do that with ReSkate. I will definitely play around with it later and see if I can get a feeling I like.

Thanks for all the info.

Can I just check, do I need an EA account to play?

Cos if it does, I'm out.

You do not need an EA account to play the ReSkate version. It does require you to have the official Skate game files, which you can also download without an EA account.

As far as i understand it, you can even play offline without steam. Your charakter is the just "unknown player" instead of steam name. Otherwise it runs throgh the steam Version.
