Car as Skateboard Part 6: TrackMania
April 10th, 2007 by Kilwag
Because I waste my time not skateboarding by writing about skateboarding instead of playing video games, I was unaware of this 2004(!) game called TrackMania that lets players create and race on their own Extreme™! tracks. Not all of them are skateboard inspired, but this one sure is. Watch the video after the jump.

I was going to make fun of the name of this game. You know, something along the lines of “someone was hungover the day they named this game” or that they had similarly ran out of ideas or let an 8 year old kid have the honors, but then I realized it’s actually perfectly descriptive and easy to remember. Trackmania looks fun. I’m starting to groove on Metacafe for embeded video. I think their compression rates aren’t as high and artifacty as they are on YouTube where you can also find a bunch of user uploaded videos.
More hot Car-as-Skateboard action.
