It's time to get extreme, grab your gear, board or skates, because Mountain Dew and HeadGames have teamed up to bring you Boards & Blades. Lace up your blades and grab your helmet.

Summary: cheap
Comment: this is a pretty cheaply made game, it is for sure not worth [$] or [$] or whatever they want you to pay for it, it resembles a high school report that was thrown together in a half hour, very cheap, the only way that this game would be worth the money you pay is if you get it for free!

Summary: it aint that good
Comment: uhhhhh. a word of advice if you dont have patience dont buy thi game. i read the other reveiews and they said it takes a while to learn tricks. i've had the game for a month or two and i can only do a few tricks. personaly i hate the game. i still cant even grind or spin and i know alot about games

Summary: Dont pay attention to the others
Comment: Ok the only reason that these people weren't happy with the game was because it wasnt what they expected. But when u think about it its the only game of its kind. And it also has pretty good graphics, its just that games with amazing graphics like Quake 3 just make it look bad. And there is also so many options for it. Yeah it takes an hour tolearn it but that means that u wont get bored of it becasue it's not to easy,and it's just like the real thing.

Summary: Actually, it's not all that bad...
Comment: Ok.. So I bought this game cause I love skating, and I have been skating the last 10 years or so. So when I saw this game in the store, and it was only 15$ I figured, "why not? It can't be that bad. And I sure as **** can't skate outdoors with all this snow!"... I got home and installed it, fired it up and was positively surprised with the interface (most games like this has a useless interface/menus). The game has pretty nice graphics, kinda PSX-ish if you know what I mean, blocky, kinda rough (I played it on a fast computer with a V3000 graphics card) The terrain was really cool, that was probably the best thing with about the game, awesome skate-terrain! Tricks took a while to learn, but when I finally git it I pulled off some insane combos for sure! to put it short: ok graphics (a mix between "thrasher" and "Tony Hawk" on PSX), the terrain ROCKED, controls were ok, music sucked. 15$ is nothing, and I think the game is worth it, so go check it out!
