I'm going to focus more on the GBA version since it's the first version of the game that made me enter in this wildish urbanish skateboardish trickish awesome world. Not going to write an entire bible tho lol, I'm just going to say, it's darn awesome, I love the exclusive levels innit like the warehouse level but with different objetives, etc etc. I swear if it wasn't by this version of the game, I would never discovered the freaking awesome series ahem, forgetting about thps5 ofc ahem. Now goin' to the PS/PC version, when I was a lil one I didn't even knew that there was a PC version of the game and I was completely amazed by it, when I first played it, damn I didn't even wanted to go back playing the GBA version lol, I was hella impressed by the more fluid mechanics and the graphics, no more wordz, is a freaking awesome skateboarding game and the most memorable from the series
Mesmo desconsiderando a nostalgia que a trilha sonora traz, é um jogaço. As fases são maiores e mais complexas que no jogo anterior, e a adição do Manual torna o Street bem mais interessante do que no primeiro jogo.
Acho que nessa versão de Dreamcast poderiam ter caprichado mais no visual dos personagens, mas ei, o Spider-Man ainda está aqui. As fases, em compensação, são bem superiores à versão de PS1, bem mais detalhadas e com um draw distance muito superior, fazendo jus ao hardware.

Somehow just a few basic additions made this game so much better than its predecessors. All the levels here are more interesting and replayable than Pro Skater 1, and the competitions are less frustrating as well (doesn’t mean they’re not hard at times, they’re just more fun). With added manuals, wall rides, better upgrades and specials, this game is a vast improvement and is definitely a timeless classic.
Hat zusammen mit Spielen wie Need for Speed oder Burnout maßgebend meinen Musikgeschmack geprägt und war einfach auch sonst ein starkes Tony Hawk.
Dass Tony Hawk 2 einfach genial war wurde mir wieder klar als ich das Remake von 1 + 2 gespielt habe und einfach 50% meiner Zeit nur im Hangar Level gespielt habe, weil ich so gute Erinnerungen aus meiner Kindheit daran habe.

GBA Version Score: 4/5
You'd think that a GBA port of THPS2 would suck, but Vicarious Visions did the absolute best they could in making this as close to the original game as they could on a portable. And it delivers! Most of the levels are here and preserved pretty well, and the 3D gameplay is replaced with a 2.5D isometric style view. It can be hard to gauge where collectibles or gaps are at times, but for the most part it works! I like the soundtrack here, made up of all original little fun loops. And most importantly, this game feels almost EXACTLY the same control wise as the console version, which is unbelievable. Highly recommend this to people who love the series and want to experience a different take on it.
