What can I say about tony hawks pro skater except BUY IT! there is a plethora of skaters available all with 3 great specials including tony hawks 900. The courses and backround are great and make for high replayability. Although I have mastered the game by getting all the skate tapes I still enjoy the two player mode tremendously. different stages provide new challenges like roswell new mexico, a shopping mall and many more great courses you have to unlock. This game scores A+ with me it will with you too!

3 1/2 stars. Pretty good effort

This game is very good. Unlike alot of gameboy games when you've finished it it's still very addictive. The graphics are extremly good especially in the menu's. The half pipe enables you to pull of 9 visually stunning moves and then you can combine different moves for more points. The street racing competitions are not that great though as the contol on it is bad but the moves you can do are quite good. If your not a skatboard fan then this might not be for you.

THIS IS THE BEST GAME EVER

This is the best game ever invented by gameboy. It has very good graphics for a gameboy. I think it's cool that you can skate against other skaters or your friends. I think it's also cool that you can skate in many diffrent places (3 verts and 6 streets and in competitions). I think you should definetly get this game if you like skateboarding!

skateboarding not meant for gameboy

Do yourself a favor and don't waste your money on this game. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater is great on the "big screen" (N64 or Sony) but amounts to little more than a joke on the Gameboy.

There are very few tricks in this version, and most of the ones featured don't look good anyway. The street mode is unrealistic; all you do is ollie onto 3 or 4 different obstacles and grind them. Wow. The control isn't on point, either.

The half pipe mode is decent, but once again, not many tricks to do. Activision should have spent more time on this one. Too bad.

Wowser!

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater is an awesome game with good graphics (especially for Game Boy) and excellent game play. I especially enjoy the halfpipe mode, where you pick your character and ramp and pull off Backflips, Methods, Japan Airs, 180-900 degree rotations, and much more. The controls are simple and easy to learn. The tournament mode is a little wierd, and the controls for it are hard. I would have given the game 4 stars, but the fun and coolness of the halfpipe brought the rating up. This game also has a two player option (with the game link cable) which I have not been able to test. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater is an excellent game, even though it has some drawbacks. I'd recommend it to anyone, especially those who like 'boarding.

definately not a gameboy game

This game is fun for game boy color.You can be other pro skaters besides tony hawk such as Bucky Lasek or Kareem cambel.Once you get the controls into your head its very fun,its amazing how you do so many trikcs on a game boy game like this one.My favorite mode is haif pipe because you can do 13 tricks including the 900 .I give this game 4 stars because its hard to do most of the grinds.

This is the Worst game I have ever owned

A horrible game not meant for gameboy color. I have owned it for one week and it is already my least favorite game. I do not recomend the game at all.

i traded a kid at camp for this game and i can tell you, it stinks. it has an extreme lack of features like any kind of saving. (it doesnt even use passwords) this game lasted me only 10 minutes to get bored of. if you want a quality, addicting game check out Mario Golf, Mickey Racing, or Zelda DX

Pretty Good

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater is a pretty good game. The game has good graphivs for a Game Boy and the Half Pipe Mode keeps me going back for more. On the game you can choose from Half Pipe Mode, Tournament Mode, and this other mode that you can play with a friend using a connector cable. The one thing that I don't like with this game is that the Tournament Mode is very hard to use and very confusing. I must say that this game is probably the best extreme sports games on the market for a Game Boy.

So, Tony Hawk Pro Skater is a pretty good game. I would reccomend this game for a nw Game Boy user due to the easy controls or any Game Boy or roller blading fan. Buy this. You'll like it.

HAPPY GAMING!
