"A sleek skating hybrid with plenty of compelling ideas and some stylish presentation, but the longer it goes on the more frustrating it becomes."
Read original review"It&s;s easy: if you like skate games like Tony Hawk&s;s or Jet Set Radio and shooter games with clever mechanics and lots of spectacle, Rollerdrome it&s;s the explosive combination you didn&s;t know you needed."
