Tony Hawks Pro Skater 3 (GC) Reviews

The truth is I have never bought a skate game in my life. Although I did play a demo once that came with my PS1 and that board didnt have wheels (cant remember what it was called). So what Im trying to say is... "what made me buy this game?" When I was young - very young - my oldest brother got a skateboard for his 9th birthday ...  Read the complete review

The recent months leading up to Christmas have been exceedingly painful on the wallets of PS2 owners. Just one look at the shelves of your local Games shop will have you smiling from ear to ear. SSX Tricky, Grand Theft Auto 3, Pro Evolution Soccer……so it’s quite likely that the last thing you and your bank balance need to ...  Read the complete review

When you first pick up a copy of Tony Hawks Pro Skater 3 the first thing you’ll notice is, in the cover photograph, how much the almighty Tony Hawk looks like Nick Bateman (aka Nasty Nick). No really go and have a look. However the similarities between the two stop there. There is definitely little nasty about this masterpiece. You’ll ...  Read the complete review

Stupid game. It's totally ruined my sleeping! It's deceptively addictive yet so amazingly simple. You have a character which you can chuck around in some fantasticly designed levels: Jump up ramps, ride rails and do a few twists.

The various snowboarding and dirt-bike games were quite atrocious. But then came along Tony Hawk on the Playstation.....a joy to play! I'd never played a sports game quite like it!

The graphics looked incredibly crisp, making nice use of the PlayStation2's higher resolution, and the ...  Read the complete review

Ouch. It's not often that you play a videogame interpretation of a sport that actually deters you from doing it in real life; football, ice hockey, rallying - even wrestling - can all seem like fun leisurely pursuits after a quick blast on a virtual simulation. By contrast, after an hour or two on Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3, you may well ...  Read the complete review

Wow!! have any of you ever seen photos of the new installment of the Tony Hawks Pro Skater games series?? Let me tell you, the game looks f*cking brilliant. The graphics blew me away, and the size of the levels is just totally un equalled. I think that this game is going to be the best of the three, and will totally leave what the first two ...  Read the complete review
