IGN has posted their Maloor Money Cup DLC hands-on preview of Skate 2.

Quote:


	"The Maloof Money Cup DLC isn't for a person new to Skate 2; it's for those who're still playing after all these months. If you just haven't gotten enough of Skate 2, then for just three bucks you get yourself a nice little bonus skate park."

I'm still playing skate 2, and for 3 bucks, this looks like a buy for me.

# 2 Shinyhubcaps @ 07/11/09 11:09 PM

I'm sold on it. Woo-hoo! My first foray into paying for downloadable content!

Shiny if you wanna play together, hit me up on PSN. My name is silver_shadow14

I bought this but haven't played it yet. Anyone messed around with it yet?

# 5 Whitesox @ 07/12/09 02:54 PM

It's out? I will check it out after the MLB future stars game.

I bought it, downloading 60% as I type, It is a quick dl.

Game is on rain delay

:

EDIT: It is really cool. Well worth the three dollars. There is this ledge that hangs over a gap, would probably make a really cool video shot if you have the filmer pack. (I don't, just saying)

Haven't tried the competitions yet, still working on getting some lines down.

I'd get it, but i'm having too much fun with the throwback pack and the city itself just freeskating around. I was never big on comps in this or the first game

But you can freeskate the park too, it's not just a comp. Just finished vert, really easy.

The area is kind of small. Bigger than the GVR Stadium, but not as big as X-Games Stadium from the first game. The vert area is really nice, because all though it's just an undersized mega-ramp and a halfpipe, it shoots right into the halfpipe so you can get a good trick off right away without all of that back-and-forth pumping. (I hate pumping.)

This is my first time paying for DLC, and apparently, PSN has a minimum of $5 added to the wallet per transaction (if you have no cash balance to begin). So I ended up buying the San Van Classics pack as well, just so I didn't have spare money sitting in the network. Now that is a good download. Has a lot of challenges and a lot of space for skating.

The Maloof contests are quite easy, but I guess they're still fun.

Whitesox, I'll try to add you on PSN later.

I didn't bother to get the Maloof pack but I did scoop up the San Van Classics pack. Looking forward to checking it out.
