Which is better Skater XL or Session

[Cooked Biscuit]

which is better?

[Amazingly Randy]

uh? What?

[Onion]

session

[hunne]

SXL for sure...
no stupid "you did not push a direction, so I f´ing bail albeit your trucks should´ve allowed for an easy 50-50"
no stupid "animations need to finish before I accept the next input"
no stupid trigger steering

Session as it is, is just too sluggish control-wise
just gave up trying to get an ugly fs over-willy after an hour...it never registered once...so much for those "beautiful" controls - they simply suck AF as they are

I have no problems doing any trick I want, many others have no issues. So is it the game or your lack of comprehension?

[Misfit]

both games are good.
skater xl had a really nice update.
session has more potential with the engine, but is still very stiff and buggy compared to sxl.

i like the competition, skater xl dev suddenly woke up and now communicate what they are doing. lets see how the dev teams do in the future, they are both small, dedicated teams and deserve support.

I don´t care what you or others can do or not. Period. Session doesn´t work for me, cuz it´s too sluggish. I like to play fast and not this petty excuse of skate-chess with specific button/stick combos that don´t work half of the time. Session is like a crossbreed of THPS + T:S&D and nowhere near a simulator for that exact reason.

For me SXL is the better game...by far, that is. And that was the question if I´m not mistaken.

they both suck.

The trigger steering kinda sucks for me cuz I have 3 dollar Chinese knockoff PS3 controller and the triggers are not analog (pressure sensitive). So I have to jog the button to line up my steering just right and accidentally revert.

Both have pros and cons, XL have better rotations and grind controls, so far has grabs too, wich is experimental in Session, on the other part Session is better in....everything else ? lol

Animations in the last XL Beta are weird as hell, the Ollies are too high even with low pop, the speed is unrealistic, 3 normal pushes and you can jump over a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ wall, and the manuals/nose feels "bland" and locked in place.

I recommend both games, as i have almost the same amount of hours on both, but atm, and probably in the Future, Session is better after you learn how to play it.

Skater XL feels better with body rotations and I like the way the sticks work more on that game just because I'm more used to it probably but this game has better animations and feels slightly more realistic. Sessions also has the advantage of a larger map to explore that isn't as buggy as modded maps in Skater XL. I love both games really but it just comes down to personal preference.
