    One Night Rental

    This game might as well be a downhill skateboarding game. There's no sense of weight, and it feels too easy to gain control and turn despite bombing down a hill. The system of a 3 tiered "trick" system largely encourages random button mashing, and you end up finding yourself spamming commands until a 1/4 second before you land.

    The World Tour is pretty much the same game mode from any other action sports game, with the addition of the ability to get new gear, none of it is really worth spending time to acquire.

    Online multiplayer is the only reason to open this game, you actually feel compelled to TRY to hit a score, and not having to work against pre set goals is much more interesting.

From there the g...
