The Demise of Tony Hawk Pro Skater
When Skate busted onto the scene last year, gamers experienced a fresh new take on how skating could be done on current-gen consoles. The Demise Tony Hawk Pro Skater, written by Matthew DiStaulo, takes a look at this changing of the guard and what gamers can maybe expect next.
"By the time American Wasteland was released it was apparent that Activision was going to pump out as many new versions based on the same old premise as possible, as long as people would buy it. They added another awful storyline that no one wanted to play through, with the same old trick system and an outdated graphics engine. I’m not so sure about our readers’ feelings on the subject, but frankly when I purchase a game based on skating, I want to spend most of my time actually skating. If I wanted to play a game with a storyline I would try for Final Fantasy or Halo."Tags: None -
EA canada seems to be the 1 non-''aquired'' EA studio capable of putting out some qaulity products (NBA Live? whats that??).Originally posted by Alexis de TocquevilleThe America Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money. -
Good read. I definitely feel your pain man. TH2 was one of those games for me that just went on forever. I'd stay up playing it well into the night, and even into the morning when I was playing with friends.
I don't really see what Activision can do now. They're not releasing a TH this year are they? Aren't they only releasing for DS while they goback to the drawing board for the big boy consoles?
Oh well..skate. ftw!

Good article, but I don't recall reverts being in THPS 3. I think they started that in 4.
The big thing(s) with 3 were 1) doubling/tripling up flips, 2) freestyle flatland combos, and 3) online play.Samsung PN60F8500 PDP / Anthem MRX 720 / Klipsch RC-62 II / Klipsch RF-82 II (x2) / Insignia NS-B2111 (x2) / SVS PC13-Ultra / SVS SB-2000 / Sony MDR-7506 Professional / Audio-Technica ATH-R70x / Sony PS3 & PS4 / DirecTV HR44-500 / DarbeeVision DVP-5000 / Panamax M5400-PM / Elgato HD60Comment

By far, THPS2 was the best in the series. I remember the hangar level and the skatepark that was in France or something like that.Collins-Taylor-Henry-Morris-Aldrich

Re: The Demise of Tony Hawk Pro Skater
I think that Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 was the best of all. 4 and onward just got bad.WUSTLComment
