    Very good effort, it's a nice combination of old levels (1 and 2) with some of the best TH controls (things like revert are there, everything up to Undeground I think). Levels look great and they did a good job leaving them mostly untouched in their structure but still adding enough detail so they don't seem empty. A lot of the good old soundtrack is also there (not all).

    Unfortunately, park creator is messed up. You can make quite nice parks actually but you might also lose them randomly because whole things behaves like that.

    Couldn't have done a more faithful and impressive remake of two fantastic legendary games. With the addition of some of the moves from later games such as reverts, this is the definitive THPS experience. The online modes are fun. The challenges are fun. The unlockables are satisfying. The levels themselves feel so good to skate in. The soundtrack, new and old, is mostly great.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One of the best games I have ever played. Truly fantastic. The gameplay is really good, and you can switch between the normal controls and the controls from THPS 1 or THPS 2. Thousands of secrets and hours upon hours of replayability, thanks for the online matches and the challenges. Expand

    Nostalgic remake, a bit problematic with all the customization and the stats system. a good tribute!

    Perfect remaster. As a vet of the series - this game feels perfect. The physics and controls feel almost exactly the same as the original. Love the addition of the manual to THPS1 levels, and including of some current skaters. The soundtrack is great, the new stuff fits nicely with the original tracks. Hats off to Vicarious Visions, and I hope we'll see the third one remastered as well.

    I've never really played any skateboarding games before, but it was (and it is) challenging and so re-awarding to learn the correct moves to make even greater combos, and while you spend time on it the more you get familiarized with the physics and the controls and more you feel you are improving and discovery-ing new ways to score higher

    As good as this game is, it could've been better. For create a park there's no create a mission or create a gap. I'd prefer Pro Skater 3 DLC. Apparently THPS 3+4 is cancelled. If that game were to be released, I like to have THPS 1+2 and create a park pieces available in THPS 3+4. Even if a had to pay for it.

    Incrível, misturando nostalgia, jogabilidade fluida e gráficos maravilhosos, com 2 jogos que eram incríveis no ps1, não tinha como ser melhor que isso. só não curti as escolhas de desafios e troféus que alguns deles são difíceis demais de conseguir. mas nada que atrapalhe a experiencia de quem quer revisitar esses 2 clássicos.

    This game is awesome but so unrealistic. Although I could do most of what Tony does in this game in real life I can't respawn the way he does, for that I'm gonna have to deduct 2 points.

    The best remaster of a game ever, in my opinion.

    They didn't tweak the gameplay too much. This is the THPS 1+2 games you remember, but modernized and made better in every way. I want to give it a 10, but I can't. There are a few super minor things that bugged me. The main one is online play. It's not set up very well, especially when you want to play with friends. The

    I want to give it a 10, but I can't. There are a few super minor things that bugged me. The main one is online play. It's not set up very well, especially when you want to play with friends. The create-a-character in this game is very shallow and limited. I wanted far more from it. The unlocks you can get are often disappointing. I made my character at the start, tweaked his clothes and whatnot 2 or 3 times throughout my entire time playing the game, and never felt like customizing again. There's should be far more cosmetics that you unlock through gameplay. Or even frequent updates to the in-game store that adds items you can buy with in-game currency. I believe they did for a little while post-launch, but that died real quick.

    The worst thing about this game for me is the park creation tool. It is so unbelievably shallow. You can do cool things if you know what you're doing. It's not completely pointless. But overall I genuinely feel like there are Tony Hawk games from the 2000s with better park creating modes in them.

    Gameplay-wise this game is 10/10 and exactly what I wanted it to be, but there are those few undeniable factors that I have to acknowledge the devs fell short on.

    What a really good and nostalgic game. Its really faithful to the original tony hawks games and brings back memories playing it. Best version of the old tony hawk games. A must play game for anyone who has some interest in skating games.

    Such a great game you can pick on modern day consoles. It's such a great game and a nice re-creation of the original 2 games and more.
    I hope that the Underground games get re-made alongside American Wasteland.

    Fantastic remakes of the original two THPS games with additional content, including new music, challenges and online multiplayer. The core gameplay is as fun as ever and includes a ton of the mechanics from later entries, such as 'wall-plants' and 'reverts'. The only serious complaint is that the online multiplayer is fairly barebones and the character creator lacks variety outside of clothing.

    Shame as the frustration of completion holds this game back from achieving a greater score.

    Perfect game! This is truly one of the best if not the best remake/remaster I have ever played, keeping true to it's roots and giving you a great gaming experience at the same time. If you grew up playing the Tony Hawks games I highly recommend buying this game, all the nostalgia and fun you had back then is still present.

    The music is worthy of praise also, bringing in a lot of variety

The graphics are great for the most part, but I do think some improvement could of been done on something like the water graphics. The cheats are not nearly as enjoyable as they were in the originals and the lack of special characters is a real shame. (I would've loved me some Spider-Man or Jango.) Those few nitpicks though have no impact on my final score, because the real star is the gameplay. THPS has never felt as snappy and responsive as this. I have to recommend this game to anyone who just likes pure good games. Expand

    What the developers of THPS 1 + 2 managed to achieve is nothing short of miraculous. During the first minutes with the game I was sure I had traveled back in time and only some new songs on the soundtrack convinced me otherwise. The remake feels exactly like the original game and, simply put, it is absurdly good. [11/2020, p.34]
