Delivering innovative new features, this time it's all about the player - completing challenges and unveiling the plot-twisting, true-to-life story that takes a player from an unknown local skate punk to fame and fortune as the most popular skater in the world. Along the way, gamers will get off their boards and explore expansive new levels on foot or in vehicles. From putting their own faces into the game to inventing their own tricks and challenging their friends with unique player-created goals, this will be the most customizable console game ever made. In this game, there are no rules...it's all about the underground.
