| Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: Just in case you didn't know, the Tony Hawk's series is the best skateboarding sim ever--and now, with the release of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4, it's even more so. Skateboarding is taken far more seriously nowadays, with legions of baggily trousered youths now able to refer to moves such as a bluntside or overcrook with a perfectly straight face. Indeed, the list of silly names for ridiculously dangerous stunts has been increased for this latest sequel and you now have the added ability to skitch (hold onto the back of a moving car) and grind through traffic. The big new change, though, is the career mode, which now has specific goals and milestones for all the different skaters and really adds to the replayability. Curiously, the graphics are still not particularly good, with the same slightly muddy, undefined look to them that the developers presumably now think is all part of the fun. They have however thankfully realised that having time limits for the levels was an unnecessary limitation and, except for a few specific missions, you've now got all the time in the world to graze your knees and cave in your skull. Add in a new and improved online mode and you've got everything the discerning extreme sportsman could desire. --David Jenkins |

Rating:  - tony hawks rulesi love tony hawk 4 becease you can do wild things the levels are a little small but the detail in them is brillent Rating: - The Hawk Still Flys!!By now this game should be out of fashion, after 3 editions spread over several consoles, the Hawkman should be packing his wings and going home. But due to the immediate success of his games, it will be awhile before his career is laid to rest. Greatly, the 4th edition of this skater series is probably the best yet. Taking out the timer on career mode, you have access to explore the level and find objectives by going to fellow skaters. A great soundtrack is also included with The Distillers, ... Read More Rating: - One of the BestTony Hawks 3 was a bit of a disapointment when it followed Tony Hawks 2, which was considerably better than Tony Hawks 1. But Tony Hawks 4 offers a whole new world to the gamer. They've done away with the 2:00minute time limit,leaving the skater with as much time as he/she wishes to use. Players can now choose the goals they wish to accomplish, take on a pro head to head, enter a competition or simply skate around. Benches, kickers etc. can now be toggled on or off to suit the players ... Read More Rating: - Why you need Tony Hawks 4While others say thps4 is starting the end of the Tony Hawks era i disagree. I personally think each game keeps getting better. The day i got this game i couldn't wait to play it. All the features have been improved on thps4. The create a skater mode has more options for your skater and also the hidden characters makes the game more interesting to find out who they are. It keeps you hooked to it until completed (Which will take awhile as there are 190 goals to complete). I suggest anyone should get this game. ... Read More Rating:  - Remains the best skating franchise aroundThe Tony Hawk's series has been accused of running out of steam. While the third version was excellent, it offered little that the second title didn't. Neversoft has obviously sought to change things with this version, but despite this, the game is very similar to the last one. One change (albeit purely cosmetic) is that there's something very English about THPS4. From the inclusion of a London level to the presence of The Sex Pistols on the soundtrack, THPS4 has obviously been, at least in part, tailored ... Read More |
