Default The last best tony hawk...

Which TH game from the series was the last "good" one?

I personally think right after THUG came out....the whole series went past it's prime...THUG2 wasn't the tony hawk game I knew...it was all exaggeratedly stupid! maybe THPG would've been the new peak of the TH series, but a lot of people jumped aboard the EA skate boat and sunk down THPG with it's own adaptation of Nail-the-trick!

what do you ppl think?

3 or 4. Well, 4 wasn't as good as 3, but it was still a worthy follow-up, unlike UG.

And American Sk8land for the DS was probably the last unshit one, and that was distinctly average.

For some reason I wasn't a big fan of 3, but it's still a good game. THSP4 was awesome and Underground was pretty cool. Underground 2 sucked.

thps2 was the best.

But then again, I never played the "real" third one, I had the crappy ps1 version that cut out everything that made it new and innovative.

3 was the first that let you really just light a level up if you understood it well, and was the last that had a significant gameplay innovation in the form of the revert. I had every game from the original to Underground, skipped UG2 because what the hell Neversoft, picked up American Skateland used for ten bucks and was pretty disappointed. Going sandbox badly hurt the stage design.

Because the little incremental changes they made, at least up to and including Underground, had a huge effect on the player's ability to combo. The on-foot controls in UG were not very good at all and their inclusion led to a fair number of really idiotic challenges.

New THPS titles haven't been relevant since OG skate came out and at this point the only thing THPS games do better is flatland. I'm hoping if and when skate 3 comes out they'll have figured out a way to nail that down.

However, Thrasher's cop chase part sucked. Fixed camera angle which means you can easily skate into a wall. Nice. Also, if you mess up the cop chase, you lose your run stats.

And the Spine Transfer was bloody great compared to sodding off-board stuff. And driving.

I strongly agree.....I would rather get Spine Transfer than being able to Break boards on my head all day after every single damn bail...well, not really...

But getting chased by cops was my favorite part....specially with the tazer in 1st person perspective...well, maybe it did years ago....but it is still a memorable part!

In the TH world you would have at least enough points to get 'Sick Score' on half the levels of THPS2 before the cop chase ends...sheesh...now I see why not!

------------------------------------------------------

ok, so can you guys tell me why you think 'that' certain TH game was the last good one?
