Still play thps2 for n64 since i dont own an x-box or anything but an n64. I usually japanese through it in an hour (per character) cause since a long time i have no memory card for it. Every time the game's turned off you just gotta start over again. I can clear the first level in 1 run. After that i take an endless free skate session at school2. I try to skate as realistically as possible, and hate when in 2 playermode people use manuals to connect everything.

So i dont see any reason to buy this game.
when i was like 17 i used to do the same shit and clear the first level in one run haha

I know it's been said, but SKATE ruined THPS for me. The transition aspect alone is enough reason to prefer SKATE, let alone everything else.

TRILL masters can get every tape in a single run on every level in a single playthrough

Holla at the kid!

+I'm such a THPS OG that I literally sat in free skate mode and tried every single "SPECIAL" command with every skater in order to figure them out since I didn't have access to the internet.

The only one I didn't learn with that technique was the burntwist, as I had no idea that a special handplant would even exist.

I also didn't know that you could spin flips with the analog stick on N64 until years after I first played it.

GO HAM!

What a hunk of shit. Game looks terrible. Tricks look bad.

Maybe it is because I like real skateboarding.. but doing an Ollie from manual over a moving car after doing a 30,000 foot manual and doing flat ground Ollies to building roof tops is terrible.

because canadian skaters have no personality and the only people who will buy the boards are there friends and mom

It's a good/shitty thing that my current place doesn't have a ps3/skate3.  I spent countless hours playing it last year, and I still would if I could.  Ghetto Spot and the Pier were the new School 2 and Philly.

I genuinely hated that dude Eric from THUG. All the Tony Hawk series were sick up until skate. I recently played THPS 2 on an Ipod. Super fun. Skated carlsbad and Venice.

THPS 4 was the best hands down. Just the levels, story, and simplicity of it all was great. They got all crazy when they got into the THUG series.

I forgot that EA folded the SKATE series cause Chris Cole and Koston were in SKATE and there would be no way that they could be in THPS.

dude 4 was the fuckin best. I played that alcatraz level for daysssss

THPS4 was my favorite out of the pro skater series, with THUG being the overall best. It all went slowly downhill from there (project 8 was good tho) and once skate came out that shit was obselete. Thps games are what got me into skating in the first place too. They were good when they were all we had but nah fam skate completely shits on thps. This is coming from a lifelong gamer and skateboarder. Skate is like nba 2k, thps is like nba jam (more or less)

Are you a kook? If you would say this, the answer is “YES”
I quit skating for a time due to piling out

I think we can all pretty much agree that once the Tony Hawk games started having a story about "coming up" it started to get real lame.  I remember playing a bit of American Wastland...jeeze...so cheesy. 

I liked THPS 1, 2, 3, and 4 because they kept it arcade-y.  No plot, just mindless fun.

Train level was one of the best, the little secret area was so hard to get too.

This looks so fucking awesome.  Skate was cool but the Tony Hawk games will always be the best.  I used to go to School II when it was a bonus level in THUG with Andrew Reynolds and I would do all of his signature tricks down the Leap Of Faith.  Frontside flip, fakie flip, variel heel, nollie inward heel... good times.


Son, I am disappoint.

skate > Tony Hawk

and it's not even close

Thps 3 was my favorite. Before it came out I had mad dreams about the Wilshire rails was included in the LA level, instead I got the lousy Arco rails.

THPS 2 with the graphics from THUG = best game ever. Once I unlocked the school and venice levels in thug, I did nothing but classic mode and free skate.

I was stoked for this till I saw the graphics. Stating its an HD version should not mean just up rezing SD to HD, and just showcase how shitty the original graphics were. Who ever developed this game did a half ass job. Even less stoked hearing tony so excited for the graphics and remembering how much he loved and endorsed taht pile of shit Ride game.
