Ok so based on reviews and videos and such I could not decide between Session and Skater XL.... so I bought them both. Mistake. This game is hot garbage compared to Session. Controls are janky and you auto-land everything. Camera angle is not adjustable. There is a 'camera angle' button in the game, but it just switches the camera from left side to right side of the skater. Old Skate 1 has better graphics than this, even with them set to Ultra. There is no ingame option menu that I could find. If you hit Start it just brings up a menu with some tutorials for the tricks, replays, changing map... no options... not even a Exit Game button. So disappointed with this considering that this is seemingly praised as highly and equally as Session.

Before you scoff at my 0.2 hours played.... that was plenty of time to get a feel for what it offers. Did I perform every trick and explore every bit of the map? No... but that wouldn't change anything except increase the amount of time this game stole from my life.
