Wait for THPS4

If the game were on skateboarding I'd give it 4 stars, but it's about inlining. I have no desire to play this game because it's a game on inlining, the least respected and goofiest among "extreme" sports. I'm just going to wait for THPS4, at least it's a game about an amazing sport. I've never once wished I could be a great inliner, but skateboarding yes.

Fruit Bootin' Madness?! You can keep it.

Like actual "super extreme" inline skating - this game sucks. Let's see, they're stuck on my feet, it's not hard, and they're stuck on my feet!

Great Sport, Horrible Game

I love this sport. However, this game SUCKS! It's boring and the graphics are horrible. When I bought this I was expecting Tony Hawk on skates, it wasn't. To all you potential buyers I recommend that you SAVE YOUR MONEY. I suggest that you buy ROLLING instead, it is way better than this.

Ok..could of been better

i have to admit i was pretty impressed with this game, i thought it would be far worse. I gave this game 3 stars, i think becuase i am a true fan of the sport and i know the rollerbadling industry as well. The graphics are impressive and the skates are well designed too. They could of made the park editor more detailed, and what sup with the levels. The only street level is the movie level. After that it goes down hill, the levels are big and everything but they dragged it out to much. One level is about a pirate ship, a constructions site, and a musmeum i mean common!!! Acclaim should of emphaized on the levels. Aggressive inline did not really focus on the rollerblading. They also should of added more people like santiago Azpuro, LOUIE ZAMORA, and RANDY SPIZER. I hope The game entitled, "ROlling" will focus on the rollerblading part. It seems as though tolling will be better, the skaters are alot better, and the levels are more street rather than kiddy [stuff].

Almost

I've been an aggressive inline skater for years, and I really wanted to like this game. But, for me, it just didn't measure up. It has potential, but I just didn't find it to be as fun as Tony Hawk 3. I was going to purchase this game, but decided to rent it first. I'm glad I did. The first level wasn't even available in career mode until after the completion of the tutorial.

This game is more challenging than Tony Hawk 3, which is good, and the levels are huge, but the fun factor just wasn't as high. After spending about an hour or so playing in career mode, I found myself wanting to pop Tony Hawk back into my PS2, which I did, and played that for several hours instead.

I can't say Aggressive Inline is a bad game, I just can't say that I found anything that made me want to play it anymore. Tony Hawk is a high energy game, and I really think that's what was missing for me from Aggressive Inline. It just didn't seem to have that same level of high energy adrenaline gaming.

ugh...

For the past 7 years (or at least I think so), I've been playing too many skateboarding and BMX games on my Dreamcast and been wondering when an aggressive skating game will come out. During those past years, I always thought to myself that maybe they will make an aggressive skating game, because of the uncontrollable hype on BMX, Skateboarding, Snowboarding, and Surfing...and then it happened. Finally after 7 long years of playing nothing more than BMX, Skateboard, Snowboard, and Surfing games as the only extreme sport games out there, Acclaim, the same creators who gave you Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX 2 for the Gamecube, Xbox, PS2, and Game Boy Advance, gives us the first aggressive skating game for home consoles entitled Aggressive Inline for the PS2. And all I gotta say is FINALLY !!! IT'S ABOUT TIME WE SEE A BLADING GAME !!! I played the game over at a local electronics store from where I live at, and I gotta say, I'm very impressed. Even skateboarders and people who just hate blading were impressed with the way this game plays. The graphics are nearly perfect. The huge stages look vivid and colorful and the character animations move smoothly, but the 3D models look a little pixelated. But still, it's looking great ! The audio is amazing. The game's soundtrack sounds like real music to my ears, with the sounds of punk rock and hip-hop and the sound effects really match the game's atmosphere. The sounds of grinding, landing, and grunting sound pretty cool. And as always, you get a nice selection of some of the best pro bladers of all time, including some made-up skaters based on Acclaim's idea like Eito Yasutoko, Chris Edwards and more. As for the gameplay, it rocks. You don't really get that much game modes, but it's still enough to satisfy the average gamer. The controls are similar to that of Tony Hawk and mostly Dave Mirra 2. And that's a good thing, considering that the Dave Mirra 2 engine helped made the game itself very popular. It's fun to pull off tricks, but when you start to spin, that's where the problem starts. Sometimes it's hard to pull off even the easiest rotations, but that doesn't mean that the game itself is bad. At least it made up for it's graceful controls and wide varieties of tricks. You can still do manuals and try to keep your balance while you grind on rails or ledges. And just like in Dave Mirra 2 on the Career Mode, you'll still do some numerous missions and talk to other people during play. So in the end, Aggressive Inline is one of the greatest extreme sports games of all time and it truly revolutionized the genre. Sure the game itself has its flaws and the upcoming Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 will beat the tar out of this game, but I don't care ! Just as long as there's something else to play other than just the same thing all over again. If you wan't to abandon skateboarding and BMX games for a little while and play somehting different, great games like Aggressive Inline should not remain unplayed. And don't forget ! This game will also release on the Gamecube, Game Boy Advance, and the Xbox very soon, so everyone will get their hands on the best blading game of all time !

Another ssx....

This game is quite exciting and if you are definitely a skater fan, buy this. It's definitely worth the price!

Aggressive Inline is a revolutionary title in the extreme sports genre. It is made by the same developers of Dave Mirra BMX, and exceeds Dave Mirra's games in fun factor. The game features some things never seen in extreme sports titles, such as vaulting, swinging on poles and skitching onto the backs of cars. Also, it features a unique level up system, where if you use a specific trait alot, you will get better and become a better skater. It introduces a new system where grabs and flips are performed with square, and actions such as talking, vaulting and pole grabing are accomplished with circle. There are 9 levels in all, each complete with tons of goals to complete, and characters that give out these goals. These characters are really funny and say some funny stuff. Like the clown in the Boardwalk level. The game is very hard at times, but you will never find yourself to frustrated. There are lots of things to unlock too.This of course adds tons of replay value, just like in all the Tony Hawk games, its the same kind of experience. The soundtrack is also good too, with some great songs to skate to. Some of the songs really set the mood for the levels in the game.
I'd say the biggest flaw in the game are the graphics. They are decent, but there are also lots of errors. Sometimes the backrounds flicker a bit, and sometimes the camera angles will go through objects like in N64 games. Also, I've ended up stuck inside a moving bus, with nothing in it due to graphical errors, and also fell through the graphics after performing a 80,000 point grind, and, didn't end up getting the points. Its really a shame that a small thing like this had to pop up in a near perfect game. Another flaw is that besides its many play modes, such as Career, freeride, timed skate and create a park, sadly, there is no create a skater mode. This would've been great to create characters. Aggressive Inline is a cool game, but amazingly, even with all of its features, it could still easily be improved.

it was cool but....

this game is definatey better than tony hawk. there are some very cool tricks. I think i only have two complaints. It's harder to get specials, compared to THPS3. But the worst thing is that it is way to easy to advance to the next level. another great thing is the awesome soundtrack.
