Even if you're into surfing, you won't find this title entertaining, and it will probably just serve to make you even angrier. Avoid this game like you would low tide.

Yes, published by Rockstar but still a disgrace. The controls are pathetic, it's almost impossible to control the character through the waves. Graphically it is very bad!
