Aggressive Inline - PlayStation 2

Aggressive Inline... This game has nearly destroyed my interest in video games and cured me of ever wanting to play another video game again.

The reason is that the game literally makes me ill. The folks who did Tony Hawk put time limits on you because they knew that if you have unlimited time in a game like this and you are concentrating hard to achieve objectives you are going to get freaking nauseous. Having tried several times to achieve objectives because the b*****ds give you only one level to play unless you earn a second level, I have solid experience in video game sickness.

I also can't believe the reviewers who say the graphics are great and the female skaters are sexy. When the skater is presented so poorly that isn't sexy, it is irritating. I doubt if anyone is playing as one of these poorly drawn females.

The only good thing I have found in the game is that if you knock over a pedestrian, the person does not just have one way of cursing you but a whole bag of barbs of which 'asshole' is the mildest. That is pretty good.

I guess those hungry for Hawk clones will run out and buy this game. I am looking forward to someone having the balls to give this game a bad review. The guys at PSXNation had the balls to give Medal of Honor a bad review a few days ago, and say point blank that the game is no better than the demo that sucked to the bone.

Thanks for letting me ventilate.
