ESPN X Games Skateboarding, a 2001 sports title for PlayStation 2, lets you choose from eight pro skaters to master tricks like ollies and grinds across nine levels split between X Games contests, street skating, and fantasy modes. You will shred through three distinct cities—San Francisco, New York, and Los Angeles—using one of 64 licensed decks, all set to a soundtrack featuring bands like Linkin Park.
The gameplay loop focuses on executing a wide array of skateboarding maneuvers, including ollies, grinds, and kickflips, across various structured challenges. The experience is segmented into nine distinct levels, categorized into three main types: official X Games competitions, traditional street skating scenarios, and more imaginative fantasy settings.
The action takes place across three major metropolitan areas: San Francisco, New York, and Los Angeles. Each city offers unique environments that incorporate location-specific landmarks and elements, providing distinct backdrops for trick execution and exploration.
Players have access to a roster of eight renowned professional skaters to choose from. Furthermore, the game features extensive customization options, allowing players to select from 64 officially licensed decks to personalize their ride before hitting the pavement.
The game's structure is divided across three primary challenge categories: X Games competition modes, which simulate official tournament play; street skating levels focusing on technical urban runs; and fantasy levels offering creative, non-traditional skating spaces.
To enhance the fast-paced action, the soundtrack features music from 12 prominent bands, including acts like Linkin Park, Voodoo Glow Skulls, and New Found Glory, providing an adrenaline-pumping musical backdrop to the gameplay.
