Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: The best extreme-sports game gets even better in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3. The elements that made the last two games a success are back: tight controls, a deep trick system, a wide selection of skaters (including Tony Hawk, Bucky Lasek, Rodney Mullen, Chad Muska and Elissa Steamer) and a slick soundtrack (featuring the Ramones, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Motorhead, KRS-One, Redman, and more). Adding to the already brilliant formula is a new trick, updated graphics and Internet/LAN play. In Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, players were introduced to the manual--a move that greatly revolutionisd the series' gameplay. This instalment introduces the revert, and while it isn't as significant an addition as the manual, it does add another layer to the already deep trick system. The game features solid graphics but a level of detail was sacrificed in order to make the game's levels so large. There are a few moments of frame skipping and polygon clipping, but these instances are rare and don't overshadow the stellar gameplay. Career mode is as deep as ever, with eight objective-filled levels. In this single-player mode players traverse their way through some" find hidden videotapes and interact with level-specific objects. Two players can participate in the five multiplayer mini-games, which include "king of the hill", "horse" and "trick attack". In a PS2 first, up to four players can join Internet or LAN games through the use of the PS2 Network Adapter (to be released in the UK after the game) or a USB Ethernet adapter or USB modem; the connection is made through your own Internet service provider ("a wide range" of ISPs are supported, though at time of writing AOL isn't one of them) so calls are charged at your usual rate. On its own, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 is a top-shelf title, but with its Internet capabilities there's no reason for fans of sports, action and platform games not to have this title. This game will satisfy them all. --Raymond M Padilla Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Beware Of SoundtrackWhile the game itself is great I was a bit concerned that the ELSPA recommendation is for 11+ year olds but the soundtrack comes with an explicit lyric warning and a 15 certificate. This was not stated on the web site or on the blurb and is thereofre misleading. I bought this for my son and promptly had to get rid of it after I had the product becasue of said warnings. Rating:  - Simply The best yet!I have played all of the tonyhawks games and was dissapointed with t.h.p.s.2 on the playstation and couldnt wait to get my hands on this one!!! I wasnt surprised at all to find a much better quality game, plus graphics and handling. i was wowed by the tricks i was able to pull and the variety on all the different levels plus new skaters which added to my expectations of the game. i am well inpressed and give the game a massive thumbs up!!!! Rating:  - good value, for sureHaving been a great fan of Tony Hawks 2 on the PS1, I was sooo looking forward to this title. I was not disappointed, the levels are great, so much to do and discover, the tricks are endless, if a little over the top. the only problem I have had with it is in 2 player mode. The screen doesnt scroll as smooth as it does on TH2. This is mostly visible on the Airport level. Slightly annoying, but thats the only downside i could see, creat a scatter is brilliant... and so are the various movies (lots and lots) Rating:  - Why, dear God, oh Why?Like baseball-capped kids crowding round street corners on their skateboards, fans have flocked to this overrated PS2 game and given it a unanimous thumbs-up rating of 'totally awesome'. But beware. Unless you're a fan of Limp Biscuit, or you happen to like jumping around with your hands shaped like Spock, (or you're American) then you're not going to like this game. Anyone else fail to see the amusement in a skating game? There's really no point to any of it. Oh wow, you've done a quad spin double flip somersault on the half pipe. Great. Games have come a long way since the days of Super Mario and Sonic, but great graphics are no substitute for gaming experience. I suppose people are either going to love or hate this game. It all really ... Read More: Rating: - A ClassicThis game, for me, is the first landmark title for the PS2, we have been waiting for so long for a real quality game to come from the PS2, and now its come. The games graphics are exellent, with a definate improvment on the PS1, dreamcast or N64 Versions of Older Tony Hawk Titles.The graphics are super crisp, with the attention to detail exellent. One major difference in this version is the revert.You can just press R2 to revert at the end of tricks to combine them together, making more points, manual up the half pipe, and bobs your uncle, 500,000 points with a bit of training. All the worlds best skaters are included again, with the notable inclusion of MTV Jackass star 'Bam Margera' he may suck on this game, ... Read More: |
