Top Skater (Arcade) Review by: David Everly Graphics10: The graphics arenıt as revolutionary as Super GT but bring the Model 2 board to new heights! The skate boarders look like the Virtua Fighter 2 characters with slightly less detail. The backgrounds are cool looking especially one level where you go in to a tunnel that you can actually do loops on and the lighting there is awesome! Sound10: The sound track is brought to you by PennyWise. A real grunge band. Itıs a great chance for them to promote their new CD. The actual sound is great to complete with an announcer who feels what the skate boarders do! Control 10: If you can do Namcoıs Alpine Surfer you can probably do this. The controller is even more advanced though. This is also where the game really shines. You stand on a board and hold on to railings. You can swing the boards side to side and/or lean on either side and also lean forwards or backwards it jump 5-6 ft in the air to do grinds or do some massive jumping when your half pipes or going off ramps. When you go off the half pipe the view is breath taking! The whole point of the game is to not crash get get massive air and do stunts to collect points and finish is 90 sec. to get a grade. Funfactor 11!:This is the only arcade game to ever make me want to play it again and again and again! Itıs such a blast to watch and play. You can jump on to rails, vertical walls, or even the CokeCola signs, go anywhere! Overall 10.5: If you can find this play it! Just like Super GT everything comes together again. Itıs nice to see you can choose from very cool characters and from real shoes including Airwalks, Vans, and Eıs. Great job Sega!
