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!

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!

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.

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.

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.

This is one of my favorite game boy games

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.

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!

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.

The challenging THPS

I got this game on my birth day,and as soon as I played it , I loved it.This game is VERY addictive. The graphics are't the best either,the corses a fine but the skaters...thats a different story. The skaters all drop in 'regular' stance,they are mostly one color,and there arms are similar to the Power Puff girls.This game is also challenging,unlike THPS2,the tricks are much harder to land. There are abunch of tricks, but at the same time, not that many.Now I average over 1000 points with tony hawk,1000 points its not that much in other video game, but in this its awsome.I highly sugest buying this game.(also check out my review about THPS2 for the GBC)

tony hawk series has come a LONG way

Wow--this game is really bad. I remember it being pretty pathetic the first time I played it a couple years back, but after getting TH4 on the GBA, I realized this game isn't worth a buck.

Save your money.
