By now, skaters have been racking up some high scores across all of OlliOlli2: Welcome to Olliwood. That's fine for personal bragging rights and for posting scores on Twitter, but that doesn't offer much in terms of the instant gratificaion one would get from immediately rubbing their score in their friend's face. So Roll7 is fixing that with the new Combo-Rush update that introduces split-screen multiplayer to OlliOlli2.

The Combo-Rush adds four new local multiplayer game modes across all of OlliOlli2's stages. These include:

• Time: Players have a set time limit to rack up their highest score.
• Race: Tricks are out the window, as players must race to the finish.
• One-shot: Rack up as high a score as possible across a single skating line.
• Score: Set the target score and wait to see if your friend can break it.

Each of these game modes can be played across a tournament format, with players able to set the tournament length. Ties are settled with a sudden death One-Shot stage.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
