    I own the computer verson of THPS2 and I also own it for N64 and they are both great games, so I give it an 8 for excellent game play but out of life tricks like a 720 backflip and stuff, but its still worth the buy.

    Great game, I should know, I played for several hours getting %100 with everyone. Fun, but if you have a dreamcast or a gamecube, get their Tony Hawk game instead. The best part is that it is something new on a platform that seems to have only spawned crappy FPS games (Doom 64, Quake, both laughable when compared to the closest compuet vesion). The Worst part is, get this, you can't Great game, I should know, I played for several hours getting %100 with everyone.

The Worst part is, get this, you can't save a decent replay, 9* pages, no "deleted" way! And, though quite nice, it could have at least put the whole song one. Trust me, if you can Get THPS 3.

    THPS2 rox! The riginal Pro Skater was good enough, but the THPS sequel is a hundred times better! Look for the secret well in Marsailles!

    Damn awesome, but once you play pro skater 3 or 4, this is not too great. you people who cant find stuff are so stupid. Just because it wasnt made for 2-year olds like pro skater 1 doesn't mean it sucks.

    Hands down, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 is the best skating simulation game of this millennium. Providing us with excellent gameplay, easy controls and smooth graphics.

    Great game at the time, but THPS3 and THAW improved so much on the formula that it's hard to come back to a time before Reverts. Playing this game now is like going back to Pop-Tarts after you've had a Toaster Strudel.

    The original skateboarding game that paved the way for all extreme sports games. While not the best format (skate took this franchise to another level) it is a very challenging game to complete your tasks within a certain time limit.

    No much to say. The best skate game on the Nintendo 64 and surely on any platform. Addictive and fun that will make you want to be a professional skateboarder.

    Quality version of the landmark skating game and the best of its type on the N64.

    As complete a package as anything Nintendo or Rare has released and it deserves the respect that those titles garner.

    While it may not be the most graphically impressive version of the game, it is faithful to the series and manages to be the best skateboarding game for the N64.

    If you can handle the C Button syndrome while mid-air, you'll be winning championships like you were the Hawk himself.
