720 (USA) ROM

720° is a skateboarding game. If you are still reading, you may like this game. It is simplistic, and the main challenge seems to be learning how to steer your character. You can earn cash by completing some special challenges, and this can be used to upgrade your character. There are a few interesting graphics and animations that capture part of the skateboarding culture. Overall, it is a cute game.

720 is pretty confusing and boring. You start off in the middle of the stage. And I guess you have to do tricks and stuff. There's this really annoying mode, called "Skate or Die". And if this bundle of red-ish dots touches your guy, you're toasted. You get three lives, and there's challenges available. Another thing that kinda annoyed me was the stores. They pretty much take your money and close up shop saying "Thanks for shopping". The only thing that I noticed that helped me was the pads. They act like health.
