Grind Session has got to be my favorite game for PlayStation outside of WWF Smackdown. The tricks you can pull off are amazing, the levels are fun and full of challenges, and the soundtrack kicks with bands like Black Flag and Sonic Youth.. The game has better controls, better variety and more moves than Tony Hawk. Plus, you aren't always falling when you try basic tricks like Nollies and simple airs so you can have a solid, fun session. I especially like pulling off those sick combos where you can score more than 10,000 points on one insane series of tricks. The game has eight great levels like SF Mission, Burnside skate park and the Brooklyn Banks. The good thing about this game is that you can beat it with a little practice, but there are still challenges like unlocking rooms in a Dream House by getting a perfect score on a level. All in all, a solid investment and a fun game for everyone. A+.
poor man's tony hawk!! boo yah

I played the demo version of this game off this cd I got in the mail one day. ...The skaters look like they just ate too much at Waffle House, and the tricks resemble skating from the early 80's. I wouldn't waste my time or money on it, even from the free demo disc. After playing this game for about 40 minutes I threw it into the cat's litter box.
Better than Tony Hawk

About a month ago, I submitted a review stating that Tony Hawk 2 was the best skater game ever. At the time, I did not own Grind Session. After purchasing GS, I have to retract my previous review and state the GS is the best. I played GS for a while, then decided to play Tony Hawk. I thought that Tony Hawk was weak GS. I would recommend GS over Tony Hawk to anyone looking to purchase either one of the two.
Not worth the time and money

Grind Session looks like a new differint style Skateboarding game to get your hands on. It is if your getting sick of THPS style however there is a down side: The graphics are very primitive, however, I thought the skateboarders wipe outs were somewhat life-like. The music sounds like elevator bands trying to preform rock songs. The sound is somewhat OKAY but sounds like it was produced by banging on trash cans and slapping wood on bricks. All in all i would say this game is about 2 hours of fun, and then youll froget about it.
very boarring game

What a combination of speed and power. This game rocks and the sound track sets it in a league of its own. Skate Boarding has finally gotten justice in a video game and it is Grind Session! All of the posers can step aside!
less mainstream than tony hawk

Grind session has far better animation, art and tricks than tony hawk or pro skater. I also enjoyed the secret level and music variety!
Better than THPS

Even though THPS has more levels and somewhat better graphics, GS is a better game (in some cases). It is way easier to do and land a trick. Less level than THPS, but more chalenges to get to the next level. Some levels are easier than on THPS. If you want a little to much of a realistic game buy Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1 or 2. If you want a more fun, less realistic game buy Grind Session.
