I was never really a skater but when Tony Hawk's pro skater demo came out I was hooked and I had to get it! Now that THPS2 is out it's even better! much more to collect and see you can even play as Spider-Man! How cool is that! I remember when the THPS2 demo came out for PC I downloaded it and had a blast! It was so cool I got a score of over 945,600 on my 3rd try! I just love this game! and if you have a Network then you and whoever else is there can go Head to Head with each other Believe me it's fun! All's what I can say is that this beats the PSX version buy 10 fold! You should really get a PSX PC pad for this game if so it plays and feel's just like the PSX version just with better Graphics and control.

The most fun game i've tried for a long long time

I wasn't really exited when i read that Tony Hawk 2 had been released,... i couldn't have cared less, but my best friends were exited about this game, so since they liked it so much, it couldn't be all bad, so i bought it and i'd think that was the smartest thing i've ever done in purchasing games, cause Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 is the one of the most enjoying games i've ever played, although it's not deep, no exeptional features, nor a plot (which i think is essential in most games) it just creates a smile on your face, it's so fun playing it, and you can become very very good at this game, and then enjoy it even more.

I've also found that you don't get bored of this game, it's always as fun even when you've played it all through, finished it with all the skaters, it's extremely enjoyable. The moves are all very very well done, and the tricks are very realistic except for how high you jump.

the graphics are clean and smooth, and the music is delightful it's fun for everybody, so i guarentee you much fun.... Thanks for reading. i hope you'll find this review helpful

Great game!!

This is a favorite of mine. I downloaded the demo and got hooked on it imediatly. The full blown version has so much more to offer! The create a skater mode, and create a skate park mode are very cool! The Free Skate mode is one of my favorite modes. I am a former skate border, so I gravited toward this game. I did notice it is not super windows friendly. I am running on a Windows 98 Pentium 2 400mhz box. I can't switch between applications (alt +tab)(it closes the program if you try), and still need the CD to start it up (am working on fixing that). Other then those two minor glithces, this game rocks! Would highly recomend getting a game pad for it. I started playing on the keyboard, but switched to a game pad. If you love this game, I would highly recomend buying the strategy guide to the game as well. It has all of the secrets and other goodies about the game in it.

Excellent game

Excellent game, i got the demo, and it is supposed to feature all new levels, and players, features include "the park editor" which you can make your own dream skate park, and "Create a skater" from which you can make your own personalised pro-skater, with the park editor, and the create a pro-skater features, you can personalize your pro-skater experience better than ever! this is bound to be the Playstation release of 2000!

A Good Reveiw

I belive this is a very well made game and should make a lot of money. There are so many maps and tricks to this game that it makes the play length never end. I downloaded the demo and i was playing one map for a total of like 5 hours in about a week and after that i was still finding out new tricks. This game is a must for all the skaters out there and people that just wanna get a good score on a awsome skateboarding game.

Step aside "Thrasher", "Sk8er", and the rest. Its a winner.

Most games come along with another installment and there are minor improvements. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 successfully attempts a major overhaul from the previous while maintaining the same great feel and fluid controls while increasing the amount of polygons per character and adding variety to a variety packed game. THPS2 is the best skateboarding game ever, adding the the character animations, including the realistic and utterly painful "rail nutter," not to mention the classic "topple" and "slip out." With a wide array of grabs, grinds, kicks, transfers, special stomps,extentions, and signiture moves, its no surprise that THPS2 comes out on top. On top of all of this innovation comes the ability to put your imagination with wood, rails, and fashion to the ultimate test as you are blessed with the ability to create your own skater and a skate park that may or may not represent what type of skater that person is. If you are into aggressive sports, there should be no doubt in your mind that this game is not for you on any of the three platforms that its availible for. But it, love it, and cherish this educational marvel. Do and do it well because this is the best boarding game of all time. For now, download the demo and attemp to beat this record: High score-425026 15 combo-207194

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2

Ever since I first played the first Tony Hawk's Pro Skater (at a friends house) I have wanted a skateboarding video game. I didn't have a PlayStation, and Activision never came out with a version for PC. So for about a year now I have looked and waited for a skateboarding game for PC. About a month ago I learned that Activision was creating a new skateboarding game called: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, and it was being created for PC. I knew that it would be good based on how fun the first Tony Hawk's Pro Skater was, but I never thought that it would be this good. The graphics are awsome, and the new options are spectacular. If you like sports games expecially skateboarding and snowboarding games then you have to get this new game!

A new addict

I still hadn't gotten sick of the demo after a month of play (527,000+ score) when I picked up the full version last week. What a blast...this is the kind of game you could spend years trying to master, and there is no limit to the possibilities for play. The graphics are superb, as are the sound effects. The keyboard seems to work well for me, but I might have to go get a good gamepad to see if it's better. That seems to be the consensus. GET IT.

Review of Computer Version of Tony Hawk 2

Let me first say that Tony Hawk 1 and 2 are groundbreaking games. After reading the other reviews, it's apparent that others are in agreement. The best update from the original game is the level editor. You can even upload and download levels from the internet now. The ability to "manual" in between grinds is probably the 2nd most relevant update from Tony Hawk 1. It allows the skater to extend their lines (series of tricks), in almost infinite ways. The computer version also offers several levels from Tony Hawk 1; not the best ones though as School 1 is omitted. In comparison with the PlayStation version, the PC Tony Hawk is far superior. I'd say I get twice the frame rate as on the PS version. Also there is much less fogging of the background. Another note is that the PC version offers me a much higher capacity than the PS version to design levels, which is invaluable when implimenting risers and blue moves. Overall- I highly recommend Tony Hawk 2, especially the PC or Dreamcast versions. Also be sure to have a controller/joystick, which is essential.
