Computer games
‘Sk8boarding Star’ is a computer
skateboarding game. I got it as a present
for my birthday last month. It’s more
difficult to play than ‘Skateboarder Pro’ but
it’s faster and more exciting. The graphics
Ray 300
are also better than most skateboarding
games. The story is good, the characters
are really cool and there are lots of
surprises. The only thing I don’t like is the music. But the game’s
cheap – it’s only £14.99. ‘Sk8boarding Star’ gets four stars from me. c
