benis

probably an emulated version of skate.

>>16383594

skate 3 has hardcore mode which is extremely fucking fun imo. makes you feel like youre actually doing rails/handrails sans crushed balls when you fuck up. you have to actually line up for it and pop at a reasonable time. if you skate irl or simply enjoy a more realistic vibe, youll have a very good time with this. if youre one of those gen-z adderall casualties that insists on playing it like a tony hawk game (((tricklining))), then stop reading here as most of the rest of this post doesnt apply to you

i liked 2 better for its single player, like you said, but after spending time playing hardcore mode on 3 its hard to go back to imo.

plus, with skate 3s park editor, and a little thing called the "merge glitch", as well as a heaping mound of autism, you can make some absolutely fantastic looking parks for yourself.

additionally, i believe (((EA))) recently re-opened the skate 3 online serbs to try to sell moar DLC no doubt, and even on last gen systems, it seems that theres still somewhat of a community left PS3 was what i saw being played by a friend. cant speak to quality as ive only seen it played. EA b& me from their servers for some horseshit that i dont remember so i cant play ;_;. but the serbs being online again means that you can download community made parks, and theres an awful lot of really nice ones out there. be warned, some require DLC tho, and i cannot with a clean conscience recommend giving EA money for any reason ever.

i just re-bought the game for like $3 in some bargain bin this winter to tie me over till shit thaws irl. if you havent played it, and can find a used copy so EA doesnt get any shekels i would strongly recommend it or emulate it like anon said. 3 gets a lot of flack for its (generally accepted) shittier levels, more retarded story, and shittier campaign. but since i play these games as a kind of skate-suboxone for when its too cold where i live, the addition of hardcore mode more than makes up for it for me.

as for games other than skate series and the tony hawk series, all are shit. tony hawks is for the arcade-y player, and skate is the favorite of most who enjoy irl skating though its by no means a pre-requisite. apparently there is two new games out for nu-consolefaggots called "skater XL" and "session". i stay behind a generation on consoles and pirate PC games out of principal so i cant tell you even the slightest detail on either of these, but videos are available if you can tolerate gen-z letsplayers talking too fast over them.

heres a low quality embed of jason lees video daze part because fuck you

its funny to see these games skate series even get brought up here. no doubt partly because theyre EA games. considering who was publishing them, they had no right being as good as they were. something of an anomaly. no doubt thats why EA shitcanned the series. cant be going and making good games. what would the investors think?

>>16384406

to add to this, heres an example of a community park you can download, as well as an example of what can be done in the park editor. this particular park in the vid uses merge glitch (allows one to countersink various pieces into one anotherfor detailing or to create custom ramps/trannys). its a great example of what can be done with a little time and some autism.

the editor itself is a bit wonky, but once you get used to it, its quite gratifying to be able to create whatever park or line you can imagine, then immediately be able to skate it. not for everyone i suppose, but with hardcore mode, and the park editor, skate 3 remains as one of the only reasons ill turn on my PS3 nowadays. the replayability ive gotten out of this game is insane

>>16384502

>>16384406

Thank you.

I've seen Skate 3's online community, and it looks alive in the 360. Not going to play online so far as I don't connect to Xbox Live (and I don't want to pay Gold). Skate 3 seemed too much online focused for me, but you mentioned the hardcore mode, so I'm going to pick it too.

I'm surprised that no one has remade Thrasher Skate and Destroy. It's begging for a simplistic remake.

>>16384589

yep make sure to wear protective gear because you're going to fall on your ass

>>16384526

yea the main problem with skate 3 online is the cancer that is (((tricklining))). theres hardcore-only serbs i believe, but even then, people have gone out of their way to learn how to do all kinds of crazy trickline bullshit and it totally ruins any sense of competition which isnt why i skate irl nor play skate vidya anyways, but i digress for me when you got some faggot next to you doing flatground no-comply backflip rocket airs to nose manual into a tranny, then pulling a 360 hardflip mctwist, landing back in a nose manual and no comply front-flipping out

for an example of this cancer, and why the skate 3 online community initially died prior to it being literally killed by EA pulling the plug, see embed related. this spic, and his army of underageb&s screaming into their mics, are the progenitors of this cancer. youll notice how rapidly they talk, while simultaneously saying absolutely nothing of value, which is a side-effect of being raised on prescription strength amphetamine salts from age 3 onward.

many people still play and create parks for "realistic" play being the name given to differentiate the actual way to play the game from the arcade-y bullshit that is tricklining, so if youre able to access the EA servers, there will still be a shitton of custom levels for you to skate.

and besides, while it may be an unpopular opinion, i think the main map of skate 3 is quite good on its own. even after playing it to death, i still manage to find new lines to come up with and spots to skate. this is accentuated by the fact that you can drop in moveable kickers/ramps/rails anywhere on the main map.

if you can find a used copy most game stores ive been to have all of them for single-digit price due to so many multiples of copies its definitely worth picking up.

>>16384554

im surprised theres not more skateboarding games coming out. theres very obviously a huge demand for it. even recent vids as in this year of kids putting up skate 3 vids are garnering multiple millions of views in some cases. this is a very old game to be seeing such an active community still, and on dead systems no less.

>>16384574

>They updated the graphics on xbonex (that's why the servers are still up) to 4k/60fps but its not worth it to me to upgrade from my 360 that it plays perfectly fine on

the graphics never bothered me anyways. plus, on PS, not only would i have to buy a PS4 not happening, but in order to play online i would have to pay for PS plus, which is total cancer. and theres still the chance that i would be b& from EAs serbs, as i am now for whatever reason

>>16384589

its certainly not easy. you could spend your whole life learning and still be only mediocre. but the basics are easy enough where if you have a little balance and physical coordination you can easily learn all of the basics in a matter of months.

as for fun, its hands down the most fun activity ive ever done irl. many of my longest and best irl friends are the kids i grew up skating with like a decade ago. sure, youll meet a lot of degenerates too these are normally the kids getting high under the ramp, and (normally) they cant skate for shit, but theres nothing better than tearing up some spot downtown with your buddies irl. its the only way to make living in a city worthwhile imo. it makes you look at that shitty old ledge/bank in that burnt out parking lot behind your local 711 in an entirely new way. what was once urban decay, is now your oyster.

it also, at its base, an effective form of transportation, and if some nog tries to jump you, the skateboard becomes an incredibly effective melee weapon. a truck to the face will neutralize almost anyone aggressors.

most skaters are really excesively imo laid-back, and if you both are there to skate, even with total strangers, you can have a good time just from this common interest alone. plus, with the barrier to entry being only ~$80-100USD for a deck, and skating being more popular than ever, its a good way to meet good friends irl as far as im concerned. beats the shit out of going to some shit bar and feigning interest in some drunks life story.

>>16384406

>gen-z adderall casualties that insists on playing it like a tony hawk game (((tricklining)))

Wait, so the younger people are the ones who insist on playing it like the older game?

I never got into Skate because I just wanted more Tony Hawk, but the Tony Hawk games sucked by that point. The more arcade-y the better. Even the open worlds of 4 were a bit to my disliking.

>>16384658

>skating being more popular than ever

Even without the massive media attention it had in the early 2000s? I know you'll say that just resulted in a lot of poser 10 year olds (which is obviously true) but I have to figure it also resulted in a larger number of people actually being introduced to the sport.

>>16384608

>>16384685

Basically the younger types like the physics of Skate, but they just play it in arcade mode. This causes them to abuse glitches and it's tough to compete with it.

There's a glitch where you can do >1080 flips/grabs from doing footplants after you do a single trick.

>>16384685

>The more arcade-y the better

yea i didnt mean to be all boomer about it. if thats how you wanna play it, do it. i miss the old tony hawks as well. the last good one was THUG 2 imo.

that said, theres absolutely no denying that the rise in tricklining is what killed the skate 3 online community initially. when it first came out it was tons of fun. you could just cruise around and find dudes to skate with, just like irl and no one was pulling out flatground backflips to remind you that you were just playing a game. many of these guys quit once the servers got loaded with hundreds of screeching underage kids doing no comply 360 hardflip frontflips.

>>16384685

>Even without the massive media attention it had in the early 2000s?

absolutely. especially in major cities that have decent parks being built, i see more skaters than ever before. its honestly a bit too crowded for my tastes, hence why i normally skate disgusting, dilapitated street spots over the parks. but the rise in high quality, often times concrete, parks has definitely made it more popular.

in NYC alone theres several dozen new free outdoor park within the last 5 years or so. really nice park too, not some slappy shit and a flatbar. fuck, most of em have legitimate bowls too.

>>16384729

soundtrack for skate is garbage imo, only a few good songs per and a bunch of hip hop shit too which is total trash to skate to imo. ya need something fast and intense, or at least rockin. not shitty 80BPM 2 bar repeats with lyrics about bullshit. but you can load in your own playlists on ps3 if you have them on your HDD i think. i normally just mute the music and listen to what i want on my computer as its way simpler.

>>16383594

Skate is less linear and more open-world. Expect to spend a lot of time finding cool lines to skate and dicking around. Skate 2's probably the best due to superior map design, and good artistic direction, but they're all enjoyable.

>>16384806

Some of the RnB/Funk stuff in Skate 2 was good though.

>>16384729

I hated the soundtrack for all of the Skate games. Perhaps I'm too spoiled by Thrasher and Tony Hawk.

SO HERE I AM

If you haven't played it yet, Disney's Extreme Skate Adventure is essentially a Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 level pack. Levels are very hit and miss though.

>>16387753

huh

some of those levels actually look really fun tbh.

wouldnt expect that from a kids game

its a shame we never got any mainline THPS games where you were shrunk down like in that toy story level. theres a lot of cool stuff that could be done in that kind of setting

>>16387753

I could never get into that game, and I tried several times. The controls are just too…different. I think it defaults to an easier scheme, but even when I switched it over to pro controls the tricks still seem super weird even for what should be basic maneuvers. It felt like every trick was a special trick. It's got a good engine, and some neat levels…but that's about it.

>>16384658

I think I'll take the plunge. Any tips on what to look for in a beginner deck?

>>16390537

literally doesnt matter imo

just buy blank decks cuz theyre cheaper.

if youre gonna splurge on anything, get some decent bearings.

if youre skating outside on rough streets get bigger wheels so you dont get caught up on loose stones and holes and shit

if ya got big feet, consider getting a wider deck

idk youll figure out what you like and dont like after a while

>>16390829

I ride a blank too, anon. Don't forget a nice pair of shoes: Griptape is murder on your soles.

>>16391619

That's 10 years ago.

>>16391632

If that's how irrelevant he was 10 years ago, only like five years or less after he stopped being relevant, I have to imagine it's even worse now.

>>16391657

A brief glance at his wikipedia page tells me the last noteworthy thing he did was collaborate with Jeremy Burge to create a skateboard emoji in 2018.

>>16391708

Most emoji aren't PNG, they're vector-based, generally SVG data inside an OpenType font.

>>16391574

>>16391619

>>16391657

He's just a retired skater. What the fuck do you espect of him? He wasn't any way related to the videogames' production.

>>16391733

I expected nothing. But it's still funny.

With how successful his games were, it's a shame he can't manage to license his name to any devs that would try to make something like the successful iterations of his franchise. If he did, it would probably do well. But I guess that just goes to show how far games have fallen.

Surely we're at the point where indie devs can create something like PS1 games, aren't we? People have been making NES and SNES like games for years. Move on to PS1 already and give me something like THPS.

>>16391708

I mean that's literally the last thing on his page. It looks like he runs his own charity to put skateparks in underprivileged areas and showing up in random Disney channel shows as per usual so I imagine he mostly just does philanthropic work while living with his family.

>>16391574

>>16391733

>retired

he's still good

>>16384589

>Is it easy

do you have high pain tolerance?

>fun

skateboarding is an irl vidya game where everything is a level and the rules are whatever you want them to be

>>16390537

board width & wheel size are probably the biggest things that'll effect your riding. shape, concave etc really just comes down to taste. everything will feel equally difficult in the beginning though so it doesn't even matter that much so just buy a board that you think looks cool. skinnier boards are easier to flip, bigger boards are more stable. similarly, small hard wheels are easier to do tech stuff with, big wheels are better for hills and tranny. if you live somewhere with lots of rough ground you also might want to use something like 55+

>>16387451

not a fan of thaw? my favourite might be thug 1 or thps3 but mechanically i had the most fun with thaw

>>16392427

everyone looks like a faggot till they get their center of gravity down m8

just push around on the fucking thing till its easier than walking.

seriously, skate to the store, down the block, try carving some smol hills etc

just make it into a natural thing first, and you can worry about doing the tony hawks™ shit later

as for being too old?

depends on what your goals are.

are you trying to do retarded huge stair sets? then yea

are you trying to be able to fuck around on some low intensity street stuff? then no, of course not

are you trying to learn to skate tranny? definitely not i know dudes (who admittedly could skate already) that learned that shit when they were 30 for the first time ffs tho you might wanna chill on the fucking mctwists nearing 30 imo, but you got a few years left lol

as for kids fucking with you, who gives a fuck if some 15yo stoner is talking shit? spout some boomer shit at him and do a 360 flip and walk away

im 26 now and after not skating for like 4 years, got back into it when i was 25 for some fucking exercise and actual fun in my life again. dont be a faggot and go sk8 m8

also, dont be afraid of skating with people much better than you. you will learn much quicker this way. plus thats the fun part

heres mark gonzalezs part from video days way the fuck back when

if you skate like this man, and stretch regularly to keep your ninja skillz you can skate well into your 40s, just as he does.

dont think about skating like muh tony hawks game where youre trying to get points. just cruise the fuck around like embed related and cut lines on the sidewalk. thats the point: fun

>>16391574

fuck tony. he always skated like a fucking robot imo

whats hosoi up to nowadays?

hopefully not distributing crystal methamphetamine

or fuck, how about gator? actually, honest question: when the fuck does gator get eligible for parole? is he even eligible after hacking that thot to pieces?

>>16392427

Not too old, but if you're not in alright shape you'll want to start pretty slow. Find a flat empty parking lot and just push around, get very comfortable riding to the point you can just throw the board down and cruise like it's nothing. Then you can start learning some more basics like pivoting, ollies, and such. Don't expect to be doing flip tricks or anything too cool for some time, but with patience and persistence you can make progress. Be ready to fall, a lot. Everyone does. If you don't know how to take a fall properly then you'll want to be extra careful, it's something you'll (hopefully) learn as you go. Learn what mongo pushing is and then never do it.

>>16392858

i always push mongo when im setting up for fakie

fite me

good point about the falls tho

>>16392427

HOW TO FALL:

dont:

<stick your arm out EVER

<tense up

<be trying shit you obviously cant fucking do

do:

>basically go limp and just take the fucking hit

>stretch regularly before and after so you dont pull something

>>16387753

At least one of its levels is in THUG Pro, note. As of several years ago.

>>16392201

I don't understand why he doesn't just tell them to fuck off or at least lie about who he is, it's like he enjoys it.

i really miss skating & filming all with friends day and then playing soulcalibur all night

i also miss having friends at all ;_;

>>16392427

25 isn't too old to start anything. you should be more mindful of stretching & taking care of yourself though. if you're worried about looking like a kook, you're gonna look like one regardless, so don't worry about it and have fun just find a spot where you can practice the basics at night. parking lots, commercial districts, anything works just find some good ground and maybe a curb. you could also try going to the skatepark early in the morning, skaters are lazy so you'll rarely ever see anyone before 10 or 11

>>16392791

>tfw 27

>always wanted to git gud at skating

>live in a village where there's basically just fucked terrain everywher

>gotta go down a gravel road or cross a meadow just to get to the actual road which is also narrow and full of holes and cracks and cars

basically, i've got 30 meters of decent road around the house and skating that part on your own gets pretty boring pretty fast. well, it's still fun, it's just not fun enough to want to do that every day

Don't forget to also check out Aggressive Inline, which is the best Tony Hawk rip-off without a board, followed by Mat Hoffman's Pro BMX.

>>16395658

yea gravel roads are kinda the bane of skaters existence tbh

but i know some folks out in the boonies who skate. their solution? build a minirampif its a good enough ramp, people will come to you to skate

either way, remember, for almost all things other than skating, rural life is infinitely superior to urban life. dont forget that.

at least you can dirtbike and shoot guns an shieeet

>>16395664

wait, its being made for PC?

this changes things considerably

i was looking at a stream of it, and it looks like a very cool engine, but i had assumed that it was for nu-consolefags

intradasting

>>16395678

idk wtf the corporate bigwigs are doing honestly

other than nike, most major corporations have been totally aloof in regards to the recent surge in popularity of the sport. and while im lukewarm on nikes encroachment over the sport this last decade and their shoes are total shit to skate in imo, at the very least i can accept that theyve been using their tax write off donations to build some very nice free outdoor concrete parks all over the place.

as a skater, im glad to see corporate cluelessness, as skateboardings best times and greatest innovations imo always came as a result of it being grassroots, and having private companies running the show. like, when all the vision guys were the poster-children of it back in the 80s it was HUGE, there was tons of money in it, and every other kid had a deck.

the problem was, it was also kind of fucking lame. it wasnt till vert "died" and the money left till it became what it is today.

on the other hand, the /v/irgin in me feels exactly as you do.

>tfw no gaems

>>16392377

Oh, I am. Honestly, just about every Tony Hawk game is at least good, which is a feat considering Neversoft was pumping them out year after year for a good while. I think the only truly bad Tony Hawk games are near the end, with the likes of Downhill Jam, Shred, HD and 5.

>>16395750

Making a skating game cant be that hard, right?

maybe some /agdg/ fag will make one someday

>>16395991

If you have anything more elaborate than just "skating game", you should go suggest it there yourself. They have a game idea page on the wiki, and some anons do come by wanting to make games but unsure of what to make.

>>16395678

it's not just skating games, action sports games in general pretty much disappeared when ea sports BIG got axed not to mention those fuckers killed blackbox part of the problem is probably that unlike fifa or madden, there's no central license that can be bought to have the official skateboarderman game which also means there's no necessity to shit one out every year. skateboarding might be popular rn but therehasn't been anyone with that mainstream crossover appeal since tony hawk & maybe bam. dydrek maybe had that visibility for a minute but not anymore. the whole industry is super anemic right now. the corporate shoe companies basically fucked everything up

>>16395991

the biggest challenge is probably getting the physics and the controls right

>>16395750

>either way, remember, for almost all things other than skating, rural life is infinitely superior to urban life. dont forget that.

at least you can dirtbike and shoot guns an shieeet

true that.

>>16396019

>If you have anything more elaborate than just "skating game"

How do you make a skating game more elaborate? all you do is tricks or ragdoll when you fail a landing.

>>16396761

Then that already exists, 20 times over. What is the point of asking for a new one?

>>16395679

Yeah, I was surprised by how innovative that game was. Think it came out like a year before 4, which would include almost all the new stuff Aggressive Inline introduced. It was a good game, but it was definitely a bit platformer-ish to some degree. You had to really work to reach those Special Trick/Stat icons in some of those levels, but the game was a definite time sink in the best kind of way.

>>16396804

Maybe there could be some gimmick? do any skating games have a good multiplayer? maybe set the game somewhere other than america?

An addendum on that Aggressive Inline post, I remember feeling like I had found the second coming of Christ when Reel Big Fish's "Sell Out" started blaring as I played the game for the first time. I always searching for the next "Superman," and I found it in Aggressive Inline. That alone raised the game's stock for me considerably.

>>16396129

>skateboarding might be popular rn but therehasn't been anyone with that mainstream crossover appeal since tony hawk & maybe bam.

Tony Hawk wasn't that popular among normalfags until the game came out. Whoever they decide to promote would become the name to use. Alternatively, just get the Tony Hawk license and make more of those, only not garbage like the last bunch.

>>16397384

>We should play THUG Pro sometime

is it thug mechanics or thaw's? i'm assuming thug's which fair enough but kinda gay

>>16397384

They did? I never noticed the non-US levels or the multiplayer

>We should play THUG Pro sometime

Theres always a gamenight

>>16400497

THPS2 goes to France and Spain.

THPS3 has Canada and Tokyo.

THPS4 has London.

THUG1 has Vancouver and Moscow.

THUG2 has Spain, Australia and Germany.

Am I missing any more?

>>16413615

Just go back and play the old games. That's what I did a few months ago. Plenty of content to be had.

How's THUG Pro? What content does it have? Is it just sandbox gameplay with a bunch of levels? It doesn't have the actual single player challenges, right? What I want is a game that combines all the content from as many of these games as possible, but that includes things like individual challenges, soundtracks, characters, etc.

>>16413615

Hey man, you wanna know what really sucks? Despite skating for years, and running with a sponsor, I suffered a major knee injury on a 15 stair set, that took me out of the game, I was only 17, At 23 I decided to buy a skateboard, but found myself unable to heal from injuries as quickly, a sprained wrist that would have healed in less than 2 days took 2 months to heal, this gets even worse for bone injuries, leading to more permanent nerve damage, so it doesn't even matter if you get into shape, if you're over 20, any relatively minor beef will most likely ruin it for you

It's sad, really.

>>16413811

Was skateboarding genuinely fun? When I was growing up skateboarding was seen as a really cool thing, I remember wanting to get into it but then seeing how expensive a skateboard was and realizing I'd rather just spend that money on vidya

>>16413870

When the games made the PS2 jump, I got motion sickness from it due to the higher frame rate. I never had that issue with the PS1 games. It sucks.

>>16413800

Top kek.

>Tfw you wanted to get into skateboarding when you were younger.

>Tfw you couldn't due to health issues and complications growing up.

>Tfw these health issues also mess up your balance.

>Tfw no balance.

>Tfw dad kept yelling I was going to break the board for some reason

>Tfw not fat

All I was left with was skateboarding on TV and Tony Hawk vidya. The clone game, Grind Session sucked ass btw.

>Tfw you can mod the soundtrack of THPS 2 on PC.

>TFW the disc broke cause it fell out of the case and the case was broke and the bottom of the disc was really scratched up

FUCK.

>>16413858

>Was Skateboarding Fun

Yes, yes it was, and I'm sure many of the folks here can relate, THUG is what originally got me into it, there's something special about finding new locations with rails and ledges that were bolted or destroyed due to pegs from the BMX folks and just taking on new challenges, hanging with friends, shit talking and generally overcoming the fears of the next big stair set, or rail, or bowl, looking back on it now, it's amazing how stupid we were, some of those bowls had almost 90% drops and were over 25 feet deep, and we'd just do running drop-ins into them, the best part was really just the initial fear, and getting over it, and then polishing up what you can do on a street set, or vert setup, sadly this also makes you really fucking confident, and you miss things, like cracks before the stairs and fucking with your ollie timing, so you end up hitting the 13th stair knee first while debating whether or not you can catch your board under your feet*

I will never forget my first REAL skateboard though, being able to pick out the bearings, the deck, the wheels, the trucks and hell, the risers if you had money to spare. it was a blind deck with lucky risers, industrial trucks, ABEC 7 panthers and spitfire wheels

>tfw you hated most rap and hip hop, but THUG and some of the earlier games introduced you to some non-mainstream hip hop acts who were good.

Still love this song.

>>16413919

All good things come to an end

>>16413923

THUG's tracklist was fantastic all around.

>>16413919

>Tfw some actually lived life to the fullest, even just for a short time while others suffered and/or wasted their lives on stupid shit or shit that turned out to be horrible in the end.

Fucking end me.

>>16413811

You can skate past 20 without fear of serious injury, you just have to not try big shit unless you really know what you are doing. Did you hurt your wrist on some stairs? There is plenty of skating to do that isn't that risky, hell you could spend a lifetime just getting crazy good at manuals.

>>16413910

>im glad to see skating moving more and more away from this more masochistic stuff

I wouldn't say it is at all. People are going even bigger than ever, to the point some skaters are more like stunt men. It's crazy. But again, there a many types of skating so you don't have to go huge to be pro, and you certainly don't if you're just doing it for fun.

>>16413923

Pro Skater 2's hip hop soundtrack was better.

I miss the days of having all of my neighborhood buddies come over, playing a shit ton of tony hawk 1-3 and then heading out to the driveway after to destroy our shins trying to do kickflips. None of us could actually skate, but goddammit were we determined to finally land that kickflip!

Skateboarding was enormous from 98-07. Its one of the last healthy outlets for the youth to blow off steam that ive ever seen. It seems like the never ending recession paired with smart phones and social media, eternally destroyed healthy youth culture. I feel bad for these kids growing up today.

Be honest everyone. Did anyone ever pick a any song but Superman?

LIGHTS OUT

GUERILLA RADIO

TURN THAT SHIT UP

Yeah THPS2 had a good soundtrack

>>16413923

Thrasher: Skate and Destroy was this for me. I didn't care at all about hip hop when I was growing up but that game's soundtrack was from another time and it is what shaped my interests.

>>16419925

> Its one of the last healthy outlets for the youth to blow off steam that ive ever seen.

good. white youth need to bottle up that steam and stop blowing it on bullshit

>>16419936

Pro Skater 1's soundtrack is underrated. It's got an awesome punk selection. It might just be my second favorite THPS soundtrack - behind THPS2's, naturally.

At least it's not Grind Session or Street Sk8er. Those were horrible.

I actually really liked Grind Session. I played it a bunch when I was a kid, and still play it from time to time now. Street Sk8er was pretty bad, yes, but the soundtrack was killer, at least.

The guy playing is pretty shit, but I still think the game is fun.
