decent game, 31 Oct 2004

The last Tony Hawk games I played where 1 and 2 so there is fair bit of new stuff in this version.The ability to jump off your board and run, jump and climb about has been added. If you jump off mid combo you have a short ammount of time to jump back on and do a trick or the combo ends. It doesn't really add as much to the game as manuals which was one of the big impovements between THPS 1 and THPS 2. The levels don't take advantage of it that well. The control and camera are not as good as when skating and it can be annoying for the goals that require you to walk and climb about. The story mode is a nice addition as well. Mostly because it gets rid of the timer so you can mix exploring and skateing about with goal chaseing instead of switching between free skate and carrear mode. I'm a bit dissapointed with the levels appart from skatopia. I much prefer the skate park based levels apposed to the city levels that are prevelent in this version. Also the non skateboarder characters are a bit lame but you can moslty avoid using them.
