Vicarious Visions has managed to compress the entire Tony Hawk video game zeitgeist through the lens of the original two pro skater games. Classic trick lines land smooth like butter, but the physics are weighty like the later Underground and American Wasteland titles. It takes some getting used to, and to be honest I floundered around for a while. I played THPS 3 for reference beforehand, so its not an exact translation as to be expected. I have found myself preferring this remaster over the classics, mainly because the retooled physics "feels better" or to be specific more skill based and technical, to get around and smaller more accurate windows to land tricks. After a weekend of playing and 100% both tours, multiplayer and challenges are plenty to keep players around. I think this proves more than ever that good games stand the test of time, and visual polish goes a long way to bring new eyes.… Expand

    Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 & 2 is a concentrate of pure skate joy. The strange hybrid between remastered and remake of Vicarious Vision brings back a piece of video game history in the best possible form. There is some technical naivety from time to time, but overall the return of Birdman is wonderfully fun to play, beautiful to look at, and is capable of offering pure entertainment for countless hours, in the face of a slim and immediate game structure, enriched. for this purpose from many challenges, multiplayer and park editor. It was hard to ask for more, but now we want a new chapter. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 & 2 is a pure expression of joy, vitality and gameplay.    … Expand

    The graphics and visuals are definitely updated and are pleasant to look at. The controls are relatively simple to grasp.

    The gameplay is fun and engaging if you are into this type of game. Overall if you aren’t a fan of the originals you may not love this game, but you will probably like it or at least not hate it. If you are a fan of the originals than you are likely to love this game.

    Every remake/remaster of anything ever needs to follow this exact formula. Absolutely flawless balance of honoring the originals while updating them with new technology to enhance the experience. I know it's good because Downhill Jam still makes me want to rip out just as much of my hair as it did back in the day.

From multiplayer to challenges there is plenty to do. I have about 30 hours in the game right now and am still enjoying competing online against other people. On PS4 Pro playing in 4K there are only one or two levels i noticed that occasionally dipped in frames but it didn't affect gameplay. For 99% of the time this game runs smooth as butter and bugs aren't that common. In my 30ish hours of playing through the game there was only 1 time that i fell through the map and that was the most major 'bug' I have experienced. Other than that I am really enjoying this game and am praying that Activision doesn't shoehorn in a bunch of micro-transactions later on… Expand

    This is without a doubt one of the best remakes this gen. On PS4 Pro the game runs so well at 60fps, getting into the action is quick to engage in, the music is awesome, the gameplay is fun and fluid. Only real complaint I have is that I wish there was more option in create a character when it comes to faces since their are only a couple of dozen options and most of them are a little meh.

But wow VV and Beenox have really pulled it out of the bag! The gameplay is silky smooth and plays just like how I remember the golden-era games playing (THPS 3 etc) but with all of the nostalgia of the first two game's incredibly well-built levels.

    If you have any experience with THPS you'll likely blast through both games fairly quickly as they are direct remakes (right down to every last challenge) but there is so much extra to play through now, including speed run challenges, create-a-park and online / splitscreen multiplayer.

    I can't recommend this game enough, especially to classic THPS heads who may have lost interest in this franchise somewhere down the line (and rightly so!).

    The world and attention to detail are well done. This game has an insane amount of customization. You can create your own skater and there are a good amount of customization options for your skater. There are plenty of board designs to choose from. You can also create your own park. There are so many props to build an awesome skate park.

    It's good to see that this $40 game has multiplayer. Greedy Activision charged the same price for the Crash Trilogy remake with no multiplayer, so it's nice to see them change their ways. The game itself already has tons of replay value offline, so it's biblical that it has online. You can also play local multiplayer. It is disappointing their are no private lobbies yet. Nonetheless, this game is awesome. I definitely recommend this game.    … Expand

    getting the disappointments out of the way first, blood has been taken completely out of the game instead of giving us a toggle option. this obviously to open it up to a wider audience but this added to the impact of falling off your board in the original games, following in line with that, certain tracks have been redone to edit out the cuss words which added to the edginess but this is understandable. seeing your character materialise out of nowhere after falling off your board is a little jarring and gives you the feeling you're playing with holograms and not real people. these issues are rather small though

    this game is incredibly fun and definitely appeals to fans of the classics like myself. all of the classic minigames are back such as collecting the hidden tapes, time trials, collect the s.k.a.t.e. letters dotted about, they've even improved exploration so you can actively roam at will and investigate every knuck and cranny. graphics and lighting has definitely improved though some areas look more jarring than others. overall this game is definitely worth the money you pay for, highly recommended    … Expand

    So many extra challenges, the online modes are incredibly fun and addicting, the create-a-park mode is also top-tier. THE GAME LOOKS GORGEOUS.
    The addition of the speedrun mode is great, if you ever want to replay the goals just play that mode. I'm 10 hours in and I'm still incredibly HOOKED.
    THANK YOU VICARIOUS VISIONS!!! I knew you were going to revive this wonderful franchise!! Here's hoping that we get a new game in the future if this one does well and there's enough interest!! On the meantime I think I'm going to be sinking tons of more hours into this game.    … Expand

    The Tony Hawk game I've been craving for years. Beautiful new graphics with the classic fluid gameplay and some new great QoL improvements make this game is an absolute blast! Tons of offline replay-ability and haven't even touched the online or park creator yet. Thank you so much Vicarious Visions for your hard work!

    The most fun I've had playing a game in years.

    Hitting restart whilst checking what the name of the track is before you attempt to get that pesky secret tape for the millionth time will never get boring. It just feels, looks and plays exactly like the PS1 classics did, and I hope to the powers that be that they are planning on doing the same for 3, 4 and THUG

    One of the best games of the franchise and a landmark to this generation. As a 28 old guy who grew up playing all Tony Hawk's games since the original I'm totally pleased to say that this is the perfect balance between the classic and the new things on soundtrack, skaters, levels. It's just perfect. Thank you for this Tony, Activision and VV.

Other bits of the gameplay have been tweaked slightly and feel much better. Visually the game looks incredible, the lighting and colours are fantastic and all the remastered levels have so much more detail. The soundtrack is my only major gripe. Many of the original artists are here which is (mostly) great, but the new music that has been added is truly awful! No attempt has even been made to find modern day equivalents of the original line up. The featured "artists" are just terrible pointless noise, the kind of so called bands and artists that no one will remember in two years let alone 20! The original lineup of bands (actual musicians) are mostly still making music today. Why Activision couldn't have found some decent real bands that would stand the test of time (and actually had some talent) i don't know. Luckily i usually get sick of hearing the same songs over and over so i tend to turn all the music off.

    The main thing with this game is the fun factor, and like the original this remaster is soooo fun! and and totally addictive. It's really the exact game i needed right now and i'm having a blast playing it, I'm pretty sure anyone who picked it up would too. I'd call this a must buy, whether your'e a skater or just someone who appreciates incredible game design and fun!    … Expand

All in all, this game feels like a big celebration of skateboarding culture, but with a really good game built on top of it. The only critique I have is that there aren’t many options to customize your custom skater‘s facial or body features— there are just a bunch of presets. So there’s no way to make your skater look like you unless you happen to look like one of the presets. That’s really the only thing that keeps this game from being a 10. Definitely pick this up if you were a fan of all the original, “good,” Tony Hawk games though— it recaptures the magic.… Expand

I thought the controls seem counter intuitive and I couldn't be bothered to get past the learning curve to simply make my grind for some cosmetics easier. Has some bugs, customization seems meh, and this does not seem like my type of game, thus a 7.

    Awesome revival of the franchise, apart from all the classic goals the devs even added a new mode where you have to complete all of a level's goals in one single speed run. Graphics look neat.

My only complaint is the lack of face customization on the create a character. But with the amount of apparel and equipment customization it kind of cancels it out. If you are a fan of the originals this is a must have. And for any newcomers curious about what gaming in the 90's was like, you won't be disappointed.

    The graphical update is quite good, but the graphic is not as good as in the indie skate game session, for example. And the game has also not quite the amount of tricks, people are used to perform in other games, like Session, or Skate 3+4, which is expected, because as said it's a pretty faithful restoration of the first two games.

    They added reverts and spine transfers from Tony Hawk 3+4, to keep the combos going longer and a few special tricks for your super meter, buts that's it. No fancy things like laying down on the board flat to gain speed downhill, or jumping on your board without doing an ollie. You also still can't push with your foot on the ground to gain speed. The game still has only two velocities. If you push no button at all, your character moves automatically in slow speed and if you hold down A, he or she starts kneeling on the board and goes at a faster speed, but you have to jump afterwards, when you let go of A. There is no way to chancel the fast speed back into normal speed without jumping, at least to my knowledge.

    But that you can't control the speed of your board in a more incremental and precise way, is the only real complaint I have about this game, beside of the high price point. Im not quite sure why they did not just implement pushing by foot, by pressing a button on the controller. Because they already have the foot push animation in game.

    Otherwise, the game is great:

    - Great level design in a way that you can connect your tricks easily into large combos across the whole maps, which is super addictive to do. Not like in Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3,4, where many of the levels like carnival or zoo felt very empty, with not enough rails or ramps to connect your tricks.

    - Great character designer, maybe not quite as powerful as in other games, like Soul Calibur or Tekken, but you still can personalize your character way more than I would have expected. Only the real silly things are missing, like a clown, animal or superhero custom with cape. The craziest you can go is creating a hipster with a colorful mohawk haircut and moustache.

    - Great skate park creator, where you can build huge multilayered skate parks yourself, even in a vertical tower like design and upload them for others to play, with a rating system similar to mario maker. The skate park creator is easily the highlight of this game. The only thing missing from it is the ability to create your own missions inside of it. Like giving your parks a time limit and objectives like collecting the skate letters, or jumping over a certain amount of hydrants inside of your own skate park, that would be the cherry on top of the pie.

    Overall I give this game an 8.5 out of 10. Only real complaints are the high price and not being able to push your board by foot and maybe, but that's real nit picky now, that you can't build your own missions inside the skate park creator and that you don't have more exotic costumes and skins in the character creator.

    Just for comparison purpose, I would give the indie skate game Session a 7 out of 10, because it may have the better graphics and more tricks, but it does not have this arcady feeling I love so much, with maps build in a way that you can connect tricks to combos over the whole map, ludicrous high scores and 10 meter high jumps.    … 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]
