Skate 8+
Skate is an incredible game, But it is not for young children.
It deserves the T rating, but T does not equal pg-13. It has frequent mild language(and I mean mild), some violence,and breif tobacco refrence. The mild language is words such as d@$&, a$$,and hell, usually in horribly written dialogue such as when characters are complementing you a character refers to you as "hauling a$$" violence includes getting hit by cars and falling off a large ramp with ragdoll physics. There are cigarette packages in a gas station in the intro video

The Gist of Tony Hawk Game To A New Level
I used to play Tony Hawk pro skater games all the time on my XBOX, but now that I've tried "Skate," I don't think I can go back! The game is kind of iffy for some ages. Language considers curse words that you'll probably hear sprinkled in everyday conversation, just mild obscenities. Sexual content is extremely limited. I don't think I saw one flirting scene. Violence, though, is heavy. If you look on the back of the box, it's rated for blood and gore, but by "gore," it's just showing pictures of bones you broke when you smash into stuff. Smashing into moving cars, ollying old lady's backs, running into lampposts, and falling down open manholes are my personal favorite things to do (because I'm weird) as your character can flip around in comic ways. I played it with my dad watching and even though language spews from the game, he laughed every time I would (deliberately) smash into something. Buy this game and start smackin' into junk!

SKATE ROCKS! dude, you've gotta get this game! the flickit controls rock! Tony Hawk games are out. Skate is in.
get this game you'll enjoi it. (get it? Enjoi?) oh ya and if u can't land a huge drop on the game, try holding the board with one hand, then right when you're about to hit the ground, grab the board with the other hand too. it always works.

This game blows Tony Hawk's games out of the water!
Well when I first saw this game, I thought it was copying Tony Hawk and wasn't interested, then I found out that "skate." was going to be a skateboarding simulator, I got so excited for this game then. Now I'll tell you now, this does not at all play like Tony Hawk, Tony Hawk is an arcade skate game and this is a sim and this game is also quite difficult. The reason why I like this game more than the Tony Hawk games simply is the gameplay, the gameplay is so good and satisfying that once you learn how to play the game, you'll never want to play Tony Hawk again. Now for content in language, violence etc. the worst part of this game is just the intro, where there was some blood in the hospital while it shows you being worked on in a emergency room, it isn't graphic and doesn't show anything but Mark Gonzalez (Doctor) has blood on his shirt at the end. There's one more thing I should note, the language, the language isn't really strong but it's used a lot so be prepared. Well anyway, "skate." is an excellent skateboarding game and shouldn't be missed.
P.S. I recommend you buy the Xbox 360 version because the PS3 version has been known for a bad framerate (the game slows down and gets really choppy).

fun fun fun
This game is the BOMB! :D I love it. the skaters crash and break bones as well as run into cars and peds. Theres some language though, the guy that commentates you throughout the game says"D*mn" and "Crraaaaap!" when you fall. If you startle a pedestrian they can sometimes say "What the hell is wrong with you?" or "Bastar*!" and they might kick you or whack you. The skaters evade the law and skate in "no-skate zones." The security will rough you up if you do that though. In the intro you get hit by a bus and there is some blood in the emergency room...

Great game for kids and teens. Only minor downsides
SKATE is one of the most realistic skateboarding games out there. The only bad things about it are the violence, product placement, and bad rolemodels.
Here are some examples of the bad things:
1.Getting hit by cars has never been so bone breakingly sounded.
2.one of the missions has you being chased by cops while gaining a 1000 points
3.everything you wear is a REAL brand
OTHER THAN THAT, THE GAME IS GREAT FOR KIDS.

the name should be awesome!
As a note to parents, the only blood and gore is a hilarious live-action opening cut-scene where there's a construction worker holing his severed arm and said "can the doctor take a look at this? The language is not bad but happens repeatedly, though mostly when in cut-scenes or your character gets hit by a car. The only violence is when San Vanelona security catches you, and punches your avatar or something like that.

Great!
The start of an amazing series. You recover from a skating accident, and work your way up to the cover of thrasher and the xgames. Minor language. great comunity

Lots of Work
If you do buy this game, which it is appropriate for almost all ages, make sure you're kid doesn't get frustrated easily. At the beginning learning all of the controls can get annoying, due to the complications involved with the controls. But otherwise fun and good game.

awsome
the first time i played this game it took my breath away, and now it still is. this is quite simply one of the greatest games i have ever played. the flicket control system works like a charm. the violence that is in the game is not really violence at all, it is physics driven realistic falls that people like tony hawk and chad muska have to deal with every day. language is the only problem with this game, the various forms of d[never combined with god] and a words are said infrequently. very fun game and i wouldrecommend it to anyone over the age of ten.
