Wakeboarding Unleashed Featuring Shaun Murray (Sony PlayStation 2, 2003)

Ok, this is one of those games that you have to own for your PS2. It is Tony Hawk on water, really! There are a number of tricks and objectives to do. First, you have different challenges you can try to pull off to open more locations, just like tony hawk. There is free ride, so you can just continue to wakeboard at your leisure. Then, they threw in a co-op mode, where you and a friend play together, one drives the boat and the other boards, or you can play a game of horse, where you have to match each others tricks and scores, or you can just drive the boat around. I really like the game because you can spend alot of time playing it and never get bored, or throw it in for a few minutes while you're waiting for something (pizza delivery, favorite movie to start,etc...) and not have to get too involved in a level or whatever. This game really is one of the funnest games I've ever played, and I would definitely replace it if something ever happened to it.

I bought the game after playing it a couple years ago in a house with 6 roommates. One of them bought the game and next thing you know the PS2 was on 24 hours a day. We couldn't stop playing it. There was ALWAYS somebody playing the game or bragging to friends about the tough level he just beat. Although tricks and locations are VERY unrealistic, they are creative and tons of fun. Who wants realistic games anyways? Quality of game play and objective lists are similar to those of Tony Hawk Pro Skater games. This game is a definite buy, even if you have never previously been interested in wakeboarding.

Prior to purchasing the game, I looked up the backward compatibility of the game on Sony's website. Despite the fact that there were no documented problems with the game with my particular PS3, the game would stil hang up during the loading phase. Anyone looking to play this game on a PS3 should proceed with caution.

This is a great game. I like wakeboarding and Shaun murray. This is one of my all time favourite's for ps2. It is like tony hawk on water. It is also very rare.

If you like to wakeboard and are into games this is a MUST have. If you are just getting into boarding this will help you with what tricks are called and wat they look like when the are perfomed..ALL in ALL fun to me and my friends. For only 20 bucks it is a steal.
