OlliOlli 2 Coming to PS4 and Vita Next Week

O.O

I wish I liked OlliOlli more.

Dooooope. Perfected the first game. Hoping for more and better this time around.

YEEEESS

Welcome to Olliwood is a pretty great subtitle.

Well I guess we know what one of March's PS+ games is then!

@aishan: I'm thinking the ps+ game will be Helldivers.

Is this not getting a PC release?

Me too.

Can't wait for some more olli olli. The original didn't run 100% smoothly on my mac so itll be nice to pick it up on the ps4.

omg omg omg omg omg!

I hope they release a soundtrack as well. Love this music in the trailer and loved the music in the last game.

It's probably a timed exclusive like the first game.

@larrydavis said:

Yeah, same here. I tried, but couldn't get into it.

I also think this is one game where an endless runner option would be an improvement.

Beware, OlliOlli is a great game but it will take a serious toll on your PS4 controllers. I played the first one for about a week before the rubber covering the left stick was completely torn off.

Usually I'd hope for a PC release, but the first game's controls weren't quite as responsive as the Vita leading me to having trouble landing in the more difficult parts of the game. I guess we'll see if the PC version fixes that this time anyway.

That seems like a good bet at this point.

I found the ps4 version to be a little bit more difficult to control than its vita counterpart. Maybe it is all in my head, but I felt that the timing of landing tricks wasn't as precise and found myself faceplanting with much greater frequency.

Isn't that Playstation Plus day?

It's been a long time since I played a game on my Vita, about two months. Glad to pick it back up.

In my eyes, all the first game needed were more varied & colourful environments. This looks to have nailed that so will get :D

Do I still have to hit a button to land?

Niceeeeeee

It wouldn't be a Skateboard game sequal without Manuals and Reverts. Some things never die.

As if this game didn't have enough mechanics now there are manuals and reverts. Oh god. Oh god my thumbs.

I wanted to love OlliOlli so much but no matter how much time I put in to it, I just couldn't coalesce with the controls. Drove me insane.

That was my thought as well! I feel bad for anyone trying to start with this game (not having played the original), I feel like it would break their brain and thumbs.

I think by the laws of skateboarding games, they are required to add manual and reverts to their sequel, though. And OlliOlli 3 will be open world, of course.

Y'know, I wish games like this had adaptive music as you do things in the game world... like a part kicks in as you start a grind... but to do that and still be fluid... that'd take some games to another level.

I hope they fix some of the issues with the first game, like things in the foreground unrecognizable from things in the background, the imprecise controls, some frustrating level design. I like the core of Olli Olli but some parts were badly designed I felt.

Someone did a lot of work to make sure all those landings were timed with the beat :p
