Well, if you already have the console version then there isn't much reason to get this game. There were a few new levels, but now they are also available in American Wasteland on consoles.
If you don't have the console version, or if you just want to play it on the go, then this is a pretty good choice.
The graphics are just as good as on the PS2, and there aren't very many framerate issues.
The sound is also pretty much the same, except it is now coming through tiny little speakers so it doesn't sound as good. The soundtrack is the same.
The gameplay reamins solid. All of the moves are still there. The only thing that suffers in the psp version is the camera control. Without a second analog stick, it is difficult to look around while you are skating. Apart from that, everything from the console version is in this version. The loading times are longer though, as is the norm with psp games.
Overall, this a very good port of a solid console game. It has made the transition to a smaller system without sacrificing visual quality, or content. It is really your only choice if you want to skate on the psp.
