i know everyone's first thought about this game:anotherrr tony hawkk game. IT is. But this 1 is better than th4. ThUg is one of those games you can't put down at first, but you may only play it 1 or 2 more times after you beat it.
Descripition:You make a customized character[a punk] from the streets of NJ. You start off by doing small tasks like walking the dog to collecting garbage. But as the game progresses you could find your self doin mactwists off buildings. Where you end up is your decison
this game also adds a multiplayer mode: fire in this mode you fire fireballs at your opponent[vis-versa] until one of you dies
1-5 scale 5 being best-1 being worst
Graphics:4
Sound:3
Replay value:2
Gameplay:4
Multiplayer:3
Overall:3.5
This game is siick.

This game is by far the siickest skating game out there. I was impressed when THPS came out, and have been more and more impressed with each THPS as they come out. I absolutely love the new multiplayer games like Firefight & features, including getting off your deck, driving cars and of course, Story Mode. This game is (in my opinion) easier than the others in the THPS series, but I still enjoyed playing every minute of it.

This game is similar to the first few ones but with much more tricks,levels and skaters you can create or choose its no wonder this game is going fast. In this game you go from being a unknown skater in your home town of New Jersey to making it big in the future level to Hawaii or Moscow. Meet the pros along the way including Chad Muska and of course Tony Hawk. Along side you best friend Eric and duck tape skateboard you'll start to make it big in no time but only if you can pull the big tricks under pressure

Tony Hawk Underground is definately a game that will keep your interest. With many levels, and an adventurous story, it is far from dull. Help Tony Hawk go from the life of living on the streets with dangerous dealers, to becoming the most famous skateboarder known. So create a player, and begin your adventure.
Not the best, but 1 of the games I play most often.

Good camera angles, but some of the stunts are impossible. Great customs for a created character. One thing I like about this game is if you get an online adapter you can host, and join in games. You can also put your own face in the game by taking a picture of yourself with a Digital Camera. I would rent the game before buying it.
Great, but a little too short...

Ever since this game's been out (Octoberish), I've been anxiously awaiting this game. Getting off the skateboard? Driving around? HAVING AN ACTUAL STORY? In the words of Plucky Duck, "Gasp and DA-ROOL!"
Well, I finally recieved it during my family's yuletide festivities, and, well, it's a great game. It's pretty cool seeing the character I created as me (I don't have the face mapping thing) actually speak (although I don't sound like that, but oh well), and interact with friends, pros, and enemies. It's a really great story line; young unknown skater makes it to the big time. Unlike THPS3 and 4, where they just throw you in a level and give you several random goals (I'm not putting them down, in fact, THPS3 is still my favorite), THESE goals actually tie in with the game, and the transporting from level to level actually has a story to back it. (the levels, by the way, are good too; my personal favorite is Hawaii.)
So why did I give the game four stars as opposed to five? One reason: IT'S TOO SHORT. It took me five days to beat the game on normal mode, and then less than 24 hours on too easy mode. There ARE some challenging missions, but they are few and far between. I guess you could fix this by using sick mode, though.
Still, though, I recommend this game. It's a blast, and if you like the other THPS games, you'll agree with me. At least rent it. Remember...THIS IS YOUR STORY! (in a way)
Amazing

They have really hit one out of the park with this game. While the whole concept of being yourself, walking around etc etc is a neat twist what blew my mind was how much control and how versatile the control of your skater is. They have gone way beyond anything else in the Tony Hawk series. Want to go from an axle-stall to a nosepick? You can. Want to air out of a pool, grab your board, kick off a wall and land back in the pool? You can. With a little practice you'll be carving lines and doing all the tricks (and then some) you can imagine.
The levels are great, the challenges are variable, depending on difficulty level and the soundtrack is brilliant.
This is a definite "Must Own"

When i first started playing this game it was awesome, you've this friend that skates with you, just a "true" friendship, after a while you can see that this so called "friend" only wants to compete with you and well... you've to play the game 'cause i won't spoil it for you, but the thing is that it just like my life, just without the skateboard, careful kids there is people in real life like the so called friend in this game.
The game is simply awesome, great graphics, great music (as ever has been in any TH game), an incredibly rich and attracting story line, it's like you cannot stop playing this game when you start. The only thing is that after you finish the story mode, well, that's it, you can replay the game in sick mode and unlock another character, but the thing is that if like the TH series you have to play this game and to fully enjoy the TH underground 2 is good that you've beated this game so you can really enjoy the australian escenario.
You like TH games? this is it, another step on the ladder.
You've never played a Tony Hawk game before, this is a great starting point, 'cause you'll learn from zero and the story pushes you to go on. This game doesn't have the impossible tasks that has THPS 3 or 4 and it can take a while before you beat it if you aren't a master of the skateboard (Well there is no impossible task in these games after you've mastered your techniche, oh well, i found and impossible task to beat one or two guys that play over the net and make 6 to 8 million points in a trick attack game).
And of course you can play over the net without paying a monthly fee.
