There are a lot of core games that helped shape my childhood, including Crash Bandicoot, Jak and Daxter, Tomb Raider, Sly Raccoon, and Tony Hawk. However, as much as I love the skateboarding goodness that particular icon offers, there’s another that just might be my favorite skater experience of all time – okay, maybe it doesn’t quite meet the heights of American Wasteland. Still, Disney’s Extreme Skate Adventure continues to hold a place in my heart, offering a goated experience.
Skateboarding games are a dime a dozen; we all know that, and it’s not just because of Tony Hawk and the Skate series. There are many more out there, and I’ve played a lot of them. I’m also familiar with all three of the skateboarding entries that Disney created. Extreme Skate Adventure is one of the best in the genre, and it’s easily one of the best Disney games of all time. It first hit the scene in 2002, grinding onto the GameCube, Xbox, PC, and PlayStation 2.
The quality of the game shouldn’t be a surprise, especially as Toys for Bob developed it, the same studio behind Crash 4: It’s About Time, which is easily one of the best Crash Bandicoot games I’ve played, and, as I already mentioned, that marsupial holds a very special place in my heart, so I’m well-versed in his adventures.
