We all have very fond memories of the arcade action gameplay of the Tony Hawk Pro Skater games that we've played over the years. Then when we got our hands on the Skate series which brought an element of realism into the world of skateboarding video games. But where's the happy medium?

Well your prayers have been answered in the form of Mike V: Do or Die; an awesome new skating game for the iPhone and iPod touch. Not only do you get to play as pro skater Mike Vallely, but you can follow his entire career, customize his avatar, and even drive around in his '77 Pontiac Trans Am Firebird. The controls are intuitive and fun, similar to the Skate series, but you can still grab the big air like you used to in Tony Hawk Pro Skater. Check out what Mike Vallely had to say about the game in his interview with G4, and be sure to check out Mike V: Do or Die in the iTunes Apps Store. Skate or Die!
