Proving Ground gets such a bum rap these days. I avoided it for the longest time as well, since I was super into Skate like everyone else at the time was. But years passed, and I decided to pick it up since it was like only ten bucks at the time or something.

And man, it's so much better than people give it credit for. It felt a bit more realistic, and wasn't nearly as cartoony as the previous games in the series were which was a step in the right direction. There was more emphasis on skateboarding as a culture. You could focus on building a career, avoid that and stay an underground legend hardcore skater, or just dick around in the environment and seeing what spots you could come up with via the rigger path.

I dunno, man. I'm probably one of the very few people on this board that legit likes it. It's probably the third or fourth best game in the series IMO.
