Glitches by God! There were so many bugs in my first five minutes of playing that I figured maybe they sent out early beta codes. In Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5, from the moment I had control of Tony himself, I knew this was going to be a Downhill Disaster. All I have to say is, they don’t have a very good track record and hearing about them working on Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5 left me concerned. Enter developer Robomodo, who has since been tasked with the last couple of attempts at the series, including the lukewarm HD Remake of THPS. Someone thought it was a good idea to make a skateboard peripheral and a game called Tony Hawk: Ride, and this was the beginning of the end. The series took a more story based direction with the Underground series, then got a bit wacky with American Wasteland, then decided to follow the simulated SKATE experience with Project 8 and Proving Grounds, which is really where I stopped paying attention. I can’t say the same about most of the other sequels.
My personal favorite was part 2 simply because they kept with what worked in the original, and then added just enough new content and features to help the game standout. For me, I was once a die-hard Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater fan. I knew something was wrong when we didn’t receive a Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5 review copy until launch day.
