The original Tony Hawk Pro Skater was considered the best extreme sports game if not the best game of all genres. You'd think it'd be hard to improve on the success of the first, but Neversoft did it making a game that's not only larger, but also more rewarding. You have all the original characters plus 3 more, you have more objectives per level, and more secrets to open (get 100% with a character to open up a cheat). Besides that you can now make you're own skater and you're own park and you've got replay value that can't be beat. Add on top of that the new manual move, and you can send your scores through the roof once mastered.

It may take a little time to master the controls, but it's easy enough and once you do learn it's almost second nature. I recommed this game to everyone.

THE BEST SKATING GAME EVER

This is a great skating game. The graphics are great and the levels are way bigger then they were in the first tony hawk. The tricks are way cooler and there is a lot more to do then in the first one. Even if you are not a big video game fan this is the game to get. If you don't like this game i'd be very surprised. It is cool how you can combine tricks doing a manual to another trick. I definetaly reccomend this game.

the best game i ever played

tony hawk's pro skater is the best game i ever played. the cool thing is you can make your own courses, create skate boarders and you can put tatoos on them, there are 3 new skate boarders, more secret characters, new levels, new tricks, and 2 diffrent styles for each skater exept for created ones. i think every one should buy it even if they don't skate board!

Great game!

If you liked the first Tony Hawk for Dreamcast, you'll love this! Imagine all the good stuff from the first version upgraded, with more characters, better graphics, and cooler levels. Also there are tons of hidden things to discover, such as the secret Spider Man character. IGN recently gave this a 9.9 rating, one of the highest ratings they have ever given a game. If own the Dreamcast, you must own this game!

Whether you skateboard.. or not. It doesn't matter. Activision welcomes all in this title. It is simply the best game ever. Especially on the Dreamcast system. I'm not going to ramble on.... if you don't believe me, buy it, rent it, or go to your local electronics store and play the demo machine... because I assure you, they'll have it on demo!

Simply Amazing!

I just bought this game on thursday november 17th (day of release) it is now november 27th and I still can't put this one down! There are so many challenges now for each level. Instead of 5 challenges per level like on the original there are about 10 per level from a high score challenge to a hidden tape. The graphics are visually stunning! Their clothes actually ripple when you go your top speed and the tricks are perfectly done looking JUST like the real trick! The control is superb. The control is easy enough to pick up and play. It only uses up 17 blocks on a memory card/vmu. The memory card/vmu is a MUST if you pick up this splendid game which you should today! have fun and play on!

This Is A Must-Own Game!!!

I want to stress at the forefront that I am not, nor have I ever been, a skateboarder. In fact, I was never interested in the sport until I got my hands on the original THPS.. afterwards I made sure to grab THPS2 as soon as I was able to. Quite simply, this is a must have game for anyone who enjoys an 'arcade' style game. You feel completely in control of your skater as you fly through, around and over more obstacles than one would believe.. and new to this version is the ability to create your own skater and skate park, which only adds to the replayability.

The soundtrack adds to the atmosphere in an amazing way. Pumping the soundtrack through my surround sound system makes me feel like I'm actually on the board myself.. no balance neccesary, thankfully.

As for children, the game may come as a bit difficult for younger users to pull off some of the goals the game set, however the game play itself should pose no difficult problem. The soundtrack may boarder a bit on the aggressive side, and although I've admittedly not spent time examining every lyric, should be acceptible for younger ears. The only violence visible is a slight amount of red liquid escaping the skater if/when he wipes out.

Simply, this is a game that belongs in every Dreamcast owners collection. It combines all aspects of a perfect game.

Sweetness of Tony Hawk 2

Honestly, id give this game a 4 3/4 stars, mayve even better than that but not a perfect 5 for one reason, they shoulda have added the clasic levels too, like the mall, the first wood level..just all of them..... but this is personally one of my favorites. the first time i played the demo of tony 1, i fell in love with it, i spent hours and hours just playing the demo(which includes one skater, and one level),the same summer when i went to the states, that was the first game i bought. then rite after i started playing it i read up a prieview on Ign.com saying that tony is hittin the streets again, i knew my life wouldnt be complete without this game, an this is the best and most actioned packed sports game i have ever played, and now im waiting patiently for tony 2x on the x box.......

tony 2 is way better than the first one, better music, better ppl, better grafix, custom skaters and parks, but they should have included sum levels from the first one, then i would have have given this game a perfect, but everyone.....not just a skater, not just a gamer, but eveeeryone should add this game to his or her game library
