Pros: Skater 2... hehe. This game is wicked. After the first Tony Hawk Pro Skater, this sequel must have been the fully realized version that the devs wanted all along, as they went all out, bigger better. More customization options, more characters, more modes, a great level editor, more stages and cool gimmicks in them to grind on or do tricks off of, they're all designed so well! Like little playgrounds you can spend hours and hours in, trying to keep a combo chain going pulling off tricks, as if you're on one continuous ride. Tony Hawk Pro Skater gameplay is addicting, it's the best of the best. Just enough real world inspiration and basis, but then it knows, like NBA Jam before it, how to extrapolate for the world of video games, and get a little nuts, go a little crazy, get silly. And the craziest thing of all that I remember loving to bits in this game, was unlocking Spider-Man as a playable character, who had their own web based skater tricks they could perform. Man, that shit was cool. Hell, this game was even awesome on the Game Boy Advance! Still had 3D characters even, just a fixed isometric viewpoint, in a way, I kinda prefer that version just for how impressive it was for a launch GBA game! The music is also great, well, if you're playing on anything but the Nintendo versions, heh, but y'know, I'm a fan of instrumentals myself, so I like them either which way you cut it!

Cons: The FMV and music is lacking on N64, even with just instrumentals, the song list was shrunk down to only 6... dang. But they did make up for it with an extra stage. And gameplay is great, it's king.

What it means to me: I remember mostly playing this game on the Dreamcast of all places, creating courses, swingin' and skating as Spider-Man, it was the version to play. Well, next to the GBA version, which I probably most definitely played the most of, considering it was on the go.

"LIGHTS OUT, GUERRILA RADIO... TURN THAT SH*T UP!!!"

Evolução inacreditável do primeiro jogo em apenas um ano. Melhores músicas, mapas, objetivos, jogabilidade, customização, combos, estética, menus, etc. TUDO que THPS 1 acerta o 2 melhora.

Aqui eu já posso concordar que é um jogo que envelheceu bem, ele é bem mais refinado e responsivo em suas mecânicas o que torna a curva de aprendizado algo bem natural e recompensador (a inclusão dos manuals e listas de truques foram um chamado divino) , eu realmente sinto falta de jogos tão divertidos assim.

10/10, o Homem Aranha faz kickflip ao som de Rage Against the Machine pelo amor de Deus, não tem jeito.

Played through a few characters lately. This is probably my most replayed in the series cause it's really easy just to turn on my psp and play this game for a bit.

There's a reason this game is the most iconic in the series. Sure, I think later games are better, but I do give this game so much credit for what it did to the series. It feels like the most balanced in the series, the most grounded. Sure I may prefer the games with the revert, but with the revert the series feels more... idk... gamey? Without it I feel like there's more skill involved, not to mention this game just feels amazing to play and holds up remarkably well, even when compared to the remake (which is also spectacular). The first game was great, but this is where the series truly became the powerhouse it was.
