i am a surfer and was pretty stoked to see that PS2 has a surfing game out. then i read all the negative reviews, but figured ... i couldn't go wrong. let me tell you this, after getting through the rough learning curve, this game has become addicting. if you surf and have the required video game skills to play this game, than you will become addicted too!

Surfing Reality

Once again, Rockstar has instilled realistic gameplay into an arcade-style game. Being a surfer myself, I was amazed at the realism in the shape, motion, and characteristics of the waves, and how that was different with each size and location of a wave. I injured my knee over the summer and have been unable to surf for a few months now. This game has given me the closest feeling, even more so than riding a skateboard, to surfing that I have felt since the last time I stepped on my board. I would start playing and the next thing I knew, 3 hours went by. I just hope that, being a college student, it does not interfere with my studies.

This game is weird. it has ok wave graphics, and terrible human graphics. it has pitiful controls. it is hard to master but one you do, its way too easy. i would not buy on any day unless you want a... bad game.

Ill be honest the only reason I bought it is becuase it was on sale... The physics are nice and the controls arent as bad as everyone says. The only thing that (makes me mad) is there is no practice mode, so you have to play tournament mode and only get 3 falls before you have to wait for it to load again...

I would say the game is good for about a month... :)

The narliest game on the ps2

This game is a good game but now that it only costs ... it is a great game. the controls at first are very difficult and you want to give up. But don't!!!!! after a couple of rounds i was pulling tricks, tubing, and everything else imagined. if you give yourself time you can learn the game and for ... bucks it is one of the greatest buys.

I OWN THIS GAME

If you have ever surfed or for that matter have ever plaayed an enjoyable video game, do not punnish yourself by purchacing this game. The wave and the riding is terrible. First of all every time you cut back in this game the nose of your board goes under water, which in real life would send you flying over the front of your board. And another thing that caused this came to be a dismal failure is the controls, in my opinion they were to aquard. They have you using both analog sticks to stear the front and back of your board which just gets confusing. I live on Maui and do surf and I can honestly say the going outside and learning to surf would be easier than playing this game. I played mine for a day before I pawned it off. So in short, do yourself a favor and DONT BUY THIS WORTHLESS GAME.

Pathetic

If your a current surf rat or old retired surf dog this game is for you. Once you get the controls and the moves down it can be good fun. If you have never seen the ocean I would skip it. It will just be another dusty title in your catalouge. As for me all I need is some tasty waves and a cool soda and I'm set for the day! So 5 stars for the surfers and 1 for the posers give it a 3 overall.
