gimmie the lowdown

Serouisly, How much better can they make it (Not that im saying im really a fan of it because im not).

I mean its the exact same damn game over and over just with slightly better graphics, slightly more moves, slightly different skins and that one extra level people gota get off the fanboy train and accauly just keep on playing hawk man 3, its got everything you need (I still like 2 better) plently of level's, PLUS ONLINE PLAY!

Serouisly if the kids come up to me in school one more time and say "HEY DUDE! DO YOU LIKE HAVE THE NEW LIKE TONY GAME LIKE YA, ITS SO SLOW GETTING IT OFF LIKE KAZAA!" I'm gona shove a sharp metal object into my eye!

"Once you've played one, you've played them all"

actually, THPS3 is much better than THPS2 on every level...

this time around, however, they've changed a bunch of things. instead of rolling around a bunch of seperate levels, this time it's all one HUGE area, were you go around looking for things to do. it's almost shenmue esque, only with skateboards and pro skater gameplay.

Chibi, although I agree that neversoft is stretching the pro skater series thin, you gotta give them a little more credit. for an unknown reason, rather than turning into crap, they get better every time. don't dis.

also, never bother with the PC version of any tony hawk game. the sense of control you get from the console games is instantly lost with the PC.

I honestly really do love the first one - its original and the speed and skills are alot more realistic.

That's complete bullshit. It doesn't mean if you can't play with a keyboard that no one else can. I can make combos up to 200.000 points in THPS3 with a keyboard. I can play all games better with a keyboard. Others can play better with gamepads. It comes down to habbits. If you're used to one you'll always like that more than the other.

One thing that is better about the keyboard is that it's soft on your thumbs ( mostly cause you don't use your thumbs ). I can play for hours and hours on my keyboard without any problems, while playing with a gamepad my carple tunnle syndrome starts acting up ( And most hardcore gamers have this. I got this from playing too much on the game boy).

So don't trash the keyboard if you can't play with it. I say always try new stuff. I myself for instance can't play Driver with the PSX pad. It's odd, but I just can't.

i played with my joystick. and i thought 2 was the best. but someday im going to hook my dreamcast up and reminesce(sp?) with the original.

I agree Xenobite - keyboards are alot easier for me aswell.

I mean i dont know how anyone can play Unreal without a Keyboard, it seems to me any games like AVP,Wolfenstien,Medal Of Honour all need a keyboard.

But that could just be me - not that im mocking the Game Cube controller - the best one yet.

I tried playing Tony hawk 2 on the computer, and I couldn't do any flip tricks. perhaps you can do it, but these games are made for the controller. (remember, they originate on the PSX/PS2)

and yeah, it is a matter of taste, and what sort of games you usually use. I've always played console games rather than PC, so I'm not used to the keyboard in anything other than FPS.

I have th4 on my Xbox, i think it is the best one yet. the only thing is some of the moves impossible, fr anyone who knows the game in london, Mullen's challenge it is impossible to gofro a Pogo-Wraparound, no matter how many times you press te buttons it wont work. but other than the few gliches it is definntly a great game

pogo rap-around? what, is that a loop de loop?
you just biuld up speed and crouch. then steer your way through.

just get a decent game controller for the PC and you got the best version of tony hawk without the keyboard....
