Shacknews: 10 / 10 by Asif Khan

The result is the most unique and entertaining skateboarding video game ever created, with a perfect balance of challenging gameplay depth, replay value, and a fun story that sticks the landing. Put simply, Skate Story is delicious. 10/10 moons, would go to Hell again.

Niche Gamer: 10 / 10

Most skate games take themselves too seriously, sticking rigidly to the demands and image set by the league and its players. Skate Story shows that there was an underlying artistry to extreme sports and brings it to the forefront without compromising on stylish and addictive gameplay.
