OlliOlli World
I’ve already blogged my love for Roll7’s OlliOlli World, so I recommend checking that out. But to summarize, this action-platformer is colorful, fast-paced, and irreverent, with a banging soundtrack and tight controls. Not to mention it looks like Adventure Time on acid or something. It’s one of the most vibrant skateboarding games ever, which makes OlliOlli World also one of the most approachable for skating newcomers despite being such a challenge for vets.
And that’s that, eight skateboarding games I think you should definitely add to your never-ending backlog. Did I skip any of your favorites? Lemme know in the comments. But I think we can all agree that with exciting upcoming projects like Sk4te—it’s right there, EA—and Skate Story, the future is again looking bright for this uniquely engaging, once-thriving genre.
