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!

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.

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.

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!

Good, not Great

The gameplay is fun but to get fast you have to go side to side whick hurts your fingers. it's easy to learn to play and to do tricks. The graphics could be better.

definately not a gameboy game

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.

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.

This game is ok- but the accuracy of graphics needs work

Tony Hawk's pro Skater for Gameboy is an ok game. The halfpipe and races are ok. The sound is great for gameboy and it's pretty much fun. The control needs work as it is hard to get everything the way it should be. I only have beef with the graphics. The stages are ok, but every player, including Kareem Cambell and Elissa Steamer, looks like a white male with short hair. This is the only problem. Otherwise this is a pretty fun game.

I think this game is not as good as the nintendo 64 one.

I think this game is not that good you can not do any tricks on this once and you can not do rotations with the few tricks you can do and you can not tell when you are grinding. If you want a Tony Hawk game get the one on Nintendo 64.
