    Wicked fun. no other words to say. no other game will ever capture the same arcade insanity that this game achieves. while the two minute time is realistically restrictive, what it does is put you in a position of fast pace frantic-ness. meaning that you must do as much as possible with in the time within the level design. this means that you are never bored for one second cause you areWicked fun. no other words to say. no other game will ever capture the same arcade insanity that this game achieves. while the two minute time is realistically restrictive, what it does is put you in a position of fast pace frantic-ness. meaning that you must do as much as possible with in the time within the level design. this means that you are never bored for one second cause you are always trying to pull off the coolest tricks consecutively. and the level design is just PERFECT, not too big to ware you have too much of a playground to learn inside out to traverse. but not too small to ware you feel to cramped, too little for the sweet to settle in. you will be playing level designs over and over again, that's ok, as its just as simple as, if you want to get good at a game, practice.
    and the best part of this all coming together is how it just is one "RAD" and "Spectacular" tribute to skater culture of the 90's and early 2000's being an absolutely incredible time capsule that doesn't even feel dated, especially since they by pure accident, thank the heavens. this is a game I recommend to anyone if they as much as like fast paced combo building action with "tight controls" "TIGHT level design" and retro aesthetics. retro enthusiasts must play, and a must try for even regular casual games and hardcore alike.

    It's hard to avoid nostalgia with these old games, but I was really hard into skateboarding around this time as a kid and I did not have the skills I wanted to but this game lets you feel like you were a part of a world that was so cool, fun and engaging. The gameplay was wacky, challenging, and fun. It isn't the greatest game of all time but it is a classic that should be highly regarded.

Relive the classic game that defined the extreme sports genre by cutting into a slice of a cake knows as Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2. The whole game revamped what was previously thought un-upgradable and maximized it ten fold. The whole concept is awesome and it appealed to both hardcore and casual gamers. An enthralling game that deserves… Expand Expand

    I'm definitely a fan, just feels a little clunky after all these years. Still a fantastic time for any skater game fan.

    People who rated this game below an 8 are the garbage of the world. You must of not played it at the time of it's release, because you're a poopy zoomer. Was definitely one of the greatest games of the decade. Best soundtrack to date.

    What do I have to say. I wan't even old enough to play this game and playing it after I played the later games. I find myself playing this the most. Let me list why.
    Create-A-Park, Create a skater, Spider-Man, Officer Dick AGAIN, Levels, goal refinement, BEST SOUNDTRACK IN THE SERIES

    I spent more time on the first game but this one took everything from the first and added quite a lot more and more fluid gameplay

    With its customizability, near-perfect gameplay and copious amounts of fun, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 is the real deal -- a great sequel and a stellar game.
