Aggressive Inline is a 2002 video game (video game). Aggressive skating (sometimes known as rollerblading, blading, skating, or rolling by participants) is a sub-discipline of inline skating that focuses on the execution of techniques from the action sports canon. Grinds and leaps are accommodated by aggressive inline skates that have been properly developed. The term "aggressively skate" also applies to the gameplay style of many skating games. The game was released for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox and was developed by Evolution Studios and published by Sony Computer Entertainment America. It was the first game in the Roller Hockey series and was followed by a sequel called Extreme Skate Street in 2003. Inline hockey has been popular in Europe and North America since the 1970s while in Japan it has become more popular since the 1990s. However, inline skating is not as popular in Japan as it is in the other countries because of the difficulty of learning how to balance on one foot while moving forward. Inline hockey and inline soccer are the only two sports in which players use their feet to move the ball or puck along the ground. In all other field hockey games, such as pick up games or beach games, the ball or puck is moved using an implement held in the hand or, in croquet's case, a mallet.
