You Won't Be Completely Satisfied

The Maloof Money Cup DLC pack is a relatively small area that has been added to Skate 2 and may not meet expectations. Let me start off by saying that this DLC only costs $3 which isn't a big deal at all. The new area has a big mini ramp that leads to a half pipe and there is also a street area that has lots of rails to grind and a few gaps. For a Skate 2 fan, it's a great buy because it's cheap and it will give you an extra place to skate around in. But for a casual player of Skate 2, this probably isn't worth your money, no matter how cheap it is.  
 

Here's the ramp and half pipe. Have fun!
 
The new DLC seems a little lackluster compared to Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Plaza and the original maps from the first Skate. There are only two missions included and there are no spot challenges at all. Once the easy objectives are completed, it is simply just another area to skate around in. Personally, I enjoyed the pack especially at its incredibly cheap price, but I don't see myself going back to it much and I don't think anyone else will feel drawn to it either. If you really love Skate 2 and have $3 to burn, buy this right now. If you played through the main objectives in the career mode and just want another expansion to Skate 2, either buy the Rob Dyrdek pack or buy the original maps because this won't be worth your while.
This is the street area. You can have fun skating around for a few minutes, but you get bored easily.
