Wakeboarding HD on PSN this week News • News • Eurogamer.net

News PlayStation 3

Give us a wave.

Wakeboarding HD is coming to PSN this Thursday, courtesy of TikGames and Creat Studios.

Wakeboarding is like snowboarding but in the wake of a speedboat that drags you around. You'll be jumping onto docks and over boats; balancing on rails and waves; launching over buildings and landmarks; and rolling, grabbing, spinning and flipping your way through water and air.

You'll need to dodge exploding mines and even sharks as you collect points and earn high scores.

And all that in your underpants, against the backdrop or picturesque azure skies, mellow sunsets and tropical fantasies.

There's even split-screen rammed in for you and a friend.

Video looks decent - basically seems like a snowboarding game only on water and therefore without the downward slope. Same focus on tricks, grinds and jumps though.

Could be decent, certainly looks tempting, but with Patchwork Heroes out on PSP, and a slew of major boxed games on friday, I'll have to pass for a few weeks.

Hopefully they will put out a demo in a few weeks to remind people (IE, me) about it.

Blimey. Looking quite stunning, and the water effects are very impressive. Hope there's a demo.

I am interested in this; I own a few Creat Studios games and I think they're one of the most underrated PSN developers. Hopefully it will have a demo, although most of their games don't seem to.
