![]() ![]() For each map, there is also an online leaderboard in a separate pillar of career mode but as with any online game, there may have already been some hackers so some scores are in the billions which is absolutely outrageous. ![]() There is also a skate park builder mode which includes several levels designed by developer Vicarious Visions. Veterans to the game will find that the secret tapes on each map are back but sadly, obtaining the secret tape only completes one of the goals and does not unlock anything this time. These include obtaining high scores, treasure hunting for letters to spell out “SKATE” or doing certain tricks. The career mode now has a list of goals or challenges for players to try to complete in order to unlock more maps to skate in. Personally, I left the camera on its own even though sometimes I will find some corners on a random map where the camera struggled to find an angle to keep the skater centered. The right analog stick can be used to change the camera’s perspective which can be a bit disorienting. The controls feel very smooth throughout the game and the camera is always centered on the skater. For beginners to the series, there is an optional tutorial at the start of the game. The addition of these tricks makes getting combos a lot easier to obtain which can create ridiculously high scores among veteran players to the series. One of the biggest changes is the introduction of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2’s manual tricks and the revert flatland tricks from Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3’s (which was requested by Tony Hawk himself). In fact, because the original Tony Hawk’s game did not have an analog stick, the game is better able to read the D-pad than the analog stick, at least, that is my impression. While players can use the analog stick if they so chose to play the game, the D-pad is the primary way that I play the game. In fact, they even included some controls that were added in from Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3. One of the best things about Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 is that the game felt almost exactly as it did from back then but is now a little smoother. When I fired up the game on my PlayStation 4, I was immediately taken back to the early 2000s when I saw the introductory graffiti art and video compilation of pro skaters both legends and current skating around. However, I still ended up pre-ordering Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 and all the nostalgia has hit me. After all, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5 was not exactly a great game. ![]() When I heard that Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater was being remade with Unreal Engine and would include the first two games in the series, I was cautiously excited.
