I like Tony Hawk's Underground 1 and 2. BUT THIS IS A SUPER DUPER, SODA DRINKING, KNIFE THROWING, AWFUL, AND TERRIBLE GAME!!!!!!!!! The story mode is super hard. Why the heck do we have 1 place to skate when we didnt do story mode!!!!! I WANT TO PUT THE DISC IN MY MOUTH AND CHOP IT AND THROW IT OUTSIDE IN THE RAIN AND GO OUTSIDE AND SCRATCH IT ON THE SIDEWALK AND STEP ON IT WITH MY MUDDY SHOES AND GO INSIDE AND PUT IT IN THE MICROWAVE UNTIL IT MELTS!!!!! AVOID, I TELL YOU!!!! AVOIDDDD!!!!!!!!!

I would like to let you know that my nephew being only 8 years old was able to order this product off of your website without any adult supervision. He was able to order just by clicking on buy it!!!!!! I am not very happy with this knowing now how easy it is for a child to do this... What happened to secure????? Needles to say I will not be ordering from here again....
Unbelievable

I can't believe all the hype about this game, I finally get it, and it's a huge dissapointment! Underground is 100x better.
Here's the things I don't like about this game:
The camera angle makes me freekin' sick to my stomach!
Your skater goes WAY too fast.
Graphics are worse than Underground.
Goals are stupid.
Areas are complicated and crowded.
Creating a skater is saddening because it dosen't have nearly as much clothes, hair styles, and faces.
Stick to Underground and don't waste your money.
I DON'T Understand These Poor Reviews!

This is one of the greatest games on the PS2. The skateboarding is far more realistic than in previous installments, and the graphics are top notch. The enviromtents are also stellar, packing a lot of detail, and HUGE areas. I have poured countless hours into this wonderful game, and encourage any Tony Hawk fans to do the same.
PS
This doesn't come from a newbie, I have owned Pro Skater 1, Pro Skater 2, Pro Skater 4, Underground 2, and Project 8.
Awesome

Tony Hawk continues to amaze us all with this series of games. I Started off with Tony Hawk 1 and have been hooked ever since.
They really screwed us this time..

This game is a joke. I've played all of the Tony Hawk games up unto this one, and this one is absolutely awful. They must've thought, "Hey - how can we make the worst game possible? Let's take out EVERYTHING that made the games fun, and insert as many advertisements and glitches as we can!"
Gone are the multiple camera angles, create a skater options (you get about 5 hairstyles - bald, mohawk, dreads, nothing NORMAL, 3 faces, a couple shirts, and a few name brand jeans), I could go on but it's not worth it.
Added are glitches galore. Since when are frontside 180s BACKSIDE 180s? And vice versa? The frame rate is horrible, the graphics (except for the cutscenes) look straight out of a PS1 game. Everytime you land, the board swaps around under your feet. I couldn't play for more than 10 minutes, that's how frustratingly terrible this game is. I was looking forward to it and ignored the terrible reviews, but I was duped just like the rest of the fans. If you're a fan, you will be disappointed, probably angered like me.
Bottom line, don't buy it, don't even RENT it. If a friend tries to give it to you, stomp on it till it bleeds.
ARE THEY KIDDDING???

Okay, I've been a fan of the tony hawk series since the very first one came out for ps1. Since then I've counted the days down til the next installment in the series. All of them have been amazing. Project 8 in comparison to the previous titles is HORRIBLE.
This game feels like something that Neversoft threw together in 20 minutes so they could make some quick cash. The majority of things that made the past titles great, have been taken out. Wtf??? NO create a park mode. Almost no mini-games. The create your own skater mode has been toned down too. You have to earn almost all the tricks you're gonna use. The levels are uninspired and boring. The graphics aren't the best either. The only new thing they added is the slow motion effect where you can flip the board in slow motion. Thing is, it's REALLY HARD to land any of these tricks!
There aren't that many levels either. And they only include ONE level from the early series. Buy this ONLY if you're OCD and have to own EVERYTHING that tony hawk has put out.
Horrible Game

This game was truly disappointing, dispite all the hype. I don't think I've been this disappointed with any game, ever. I played the game for a total of *Maybe* a half an hour, and couldn't bring myself to play it anymore.
It is a waste of your money.
Disapointment

I hate this game. I don't see how everyone thinks this game is sooooo great. Everyone was talking about the graphics, they're not all that great. THUG 2 sucked, Wasteland was pretty kool, but this one sucks. I really didn't think it was all that fun, it didn't keep me playin it like THUG 1 and Wasteland. They need to stop tryin to make the Tony Hawk games like all overrated and hype them up when they suck like this one and thug 2 were. Underground 1 will always be the best I think, I don't think any Tony Hawk game can out do that.
WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT!!!!!

Compared to the earlier Tony Hawk games, this one bites! You can't play a girl (NOT ONLY GUYS BUY THIS GAME, YOU KNOW!!!) My niece and I went through this game in 3 days. The other games are STILL entertaining, even now. We went back to Underground 2 for some real fun.
