They fucked the physics of 1+2, I wouldn't doubt 3+4 is more of the same

Seems fine, it's just hollow.

Forgive me for buying the expensive bundle.

>>714777837
If I wasn't so cautious about modern remakes, I would've got the big bundle for 1+2, so I don't blame ya

>>714777780
>>714777837
the deluxe edition comes out tomorrow ya doofus

I was hoping to finish building the 1+2 skateboard before the launch of 3+4 but I got sidetracked this weekend and never got around to it.

Now I won't be able to for awhile because my right hand is undergoing surgery this week (same week that 3+4 launches, no less).

>>714778231
thanks for keeping us all updated

I really don't get the changes made to 4.

>>714778593
I do but it doesn't mean I like them. I understand why they were done but only in the sense that I expected it to happen, not that I thought it was the right call.

I'd have gotten the Switch 2 version but the big bundle only has a Switch version confirmed so I went with the Xbox Series.

I still want to get it on PC if it's fun, though, so I can get it in a way that'll work on my handheld gaming PC.

>>714778593
Devs are incompetent and were unable to add new mechanics like talking to npcs

>>714778593
Iron Galaxy Studios has a notoriously incompetent porting history. So naturally when offered to do 3+4, they just used the 1+2 source code wholesale, which meant having to adapt THPS4 to THPS goal-run rulesets to avoid having to model/animate/script/code the systems for NPC Goals.

>>714777686 (OP)
>Tony Hawk 7

>>714781389
But we already knew that Vicarious Visions had tried to make this game years ago before they were pulled from the project.

Honestly I'm surprised no one anticipated 4 being compromised heavily to get these games to work alongside each other.

Ever since I heard that VV had plans to make this game I was skeptical they'd be able to do it when I looked at what they were trying to combine into a single game. THPS3 and THPS4 were never meant to be compatible experiences like THPS1 and 2 were. 4 is a very different game from the first three games, that was the whole idea behind it (the original formula had started to drag and Neversoft shook up the structure to reignite interest in the series).

>>714782046
>years ago
They were banished to the Blizzard coal mines relatively quickly after 1+2, to unfuck D2's remake for them. (which they did, and were rewarded with losing their studio name)

>>714782191
What do you meant 3 wasn't meant to be compatible experiences? It's just more of THPS1/2 gameplay except on larger levels, revert added, and now with online netplay. 4 was the only one to actually change the gameplay progression.

>>714782352
???

You didn't read that right at all. I was comparing the career modes of 3 and 4, not taking all four games as a single unit.

3 is compatible with 1 and 2 structurally. 4 is a world apart from those games (even the level design is significantly different in approach from those games where the level isn't meant to be taken as a total whole but broken up into sections that work in service of specific goals).

>>714777686 (OP)
Is there actually a level set in a water park?

If it were still VV I'd reckon they would at least try to do 4's career mode as it was, if for nothing more than it being good practice for Underground 1 and 2.

>>714782598
The three new parks are an abandoned water park, a pinball machine, and a movie set.

>>714782678
rad

>>714782652
THUG1 and THUG2 are actually about as different structurally as 3 and 4 are to each other. They're not very compatible with each other either.

>>714779318
kek

>1+2 - Contains all levels of 1&2

Missed opportunity to put the oil rig level back in the game in an official capacity, for everyone who never played the Xbox version, or modded PC.

Shit thread

>>714783039
I heard that the Carnival and Chicago levels are missing from the 4 level set too (not sure how true that is but I feel like it might be).

Am I the only one that hated 4 on release and is glad they did the 2 minute timer?

>>714783242
The compromise would have been to do it the THUG2 way with THPS4 HD here. The regular campaign with NPC goals, and a classic campaign with a 2min goal race.

>>714783242
Only way I could see someone disliking that is if they dislike open world games entirely.

>>714783410
In an ideal world, that's what we woulda got.

got it preloaded, curious when it'll unlock

third parties on switch 1 unlocked at noon EST, but seeing as it took nintendo until 3 PM EST to charge me for my preorder last week im worried that that's when they'll unlock for switch 2

>>714783475
Yes but that would probably have had to be its own game. I think doing that would be overly janky if you tried to make THPS3 part of that experience.

THPS3 really feels like it should have been a big DLC pack for THPS 1+2 but then I think it'd have been hard to justify making a full-fledged THPS4 remake by itself (even if that would have been a better alternative to how they're doing it here).

>>714782652
THUG is one of my favorite games of all time and I'd love to see it get reinvigorated and everything but at this point I'm really tired of this series not getting an actually good new game since 2007. It's been nothing but remakes and shitshows for almost 20 years, if they can't whip up something new then just let the series die.

>>714783172
I thought Carnival was confirmed in, but no idea about Chicago

I played the demo and it’s great seeing these levels again

>>714783707
Careful what you wish for anon, I got burned hard by EA.
>New Skate comes out
>It's a GaaS with cash shop, black-pride shit, and The Sims 4 graphics

>>714783707
We've got 3 new levels in this, hopefully they're good and if they're well received we'll get a new game with all new unique levels.

>>714777686 (OP)

how is THPS 1+2 on Switch ?

>>714784018
Long loads, and 30fps w/ far blurrier resolution+texture filtering. Otherwise it's fine if you can get over it being 30fps (which 1 & 2 originally ran at anyways)

>>714784018
Fine enough, just with a lower frame rate. I beat it a couple times already on Switch and I've got it on PS4 and PC as well so I'm not stuck with it.

Being able to play it portably is its best asset (assuming you don't have a handheld gaming PC).

beautiful remake please redeem now

>>714784018
It was perfectly playable, but it was pretty ugly and the load times were a little longer than I would have liked. The usual compromises for third party stuff on Switch.

>years later
>THPS1+2 online is still broken
They missed an opportunity to get people excited for 3+4 by fixing the multiplayer in 1+2, add it crossplatform support (which 3+4 will be), and slap a sale on it while they're at it.

>>714784836
This is one of the big reasons I'm not going to buy 3+4 until it's on sale, can't have any real expectation that the online functionality will even work long-term.

>>714784362
Surely you've stamped your feet about Kareem and Elissa being in the games since 1999, right?

>>714784918
It was really fucking painful coming back to the game when 3+4 was announced, to finish off the achievements, to learn multiplayer was broken. I had to grind lvls 80 through 100 via tedious single player grinding.

I bought 1+2 in the Steam Sale I literally had no issues with the game at all what problems do people have with it?

>>714785108
It pisses me off that the online multiplayer is so barebones anyway. No text chat, no spectating/observing at all let alone after the timer hits 0 in games. No server browsers, no lobbies with freeskate as default but host being able to start games at will, no collision games (king of the hill, capture the flag), etc. Neversoft had this all figured out in 2002 but it all eludes modern devs.

>>714785459
Not to mention the downtime between matches, due to having to wait on the free skate timer.

The demo is available on the gaypass (no preorder/deluxe/whatever required). Its OK, feels/plays same as THPS 1+2. theres only single session on foundry and collage.

>>714779292
>I still want to get it on PC if it's fun
I bought a game key last time around off the gray market and got an EGS key. I don't know if this one is day 1 on Steam, which hopefully it is, but the EGS version of 1+2 recognizes all my controller inputs as generic, can't get it set up so it show Playstation glyphs, just 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. - it's awful. Unplayable even.

>>714785410
There's nothing wrong with the first one, its a good and faithful remake of the original games.

>>714785410
It encourages social distancing and if they could they'd probably tell you to get vaxxed.

This is my favorite tony hawk game, wish they remastered this to not have 20 fps
I only played 1-4, and project 8

>>714786127
I want them to remaster THUG 1 and 2. But not if they don't keep the campaigns and soundtracks exactly as they were.

>>714782191
I made this exact post years ago when 1+2 came out and people called me mean names. I think people believe Underground came out of thin air when 4 was essentially the test run to see if the system worked

>>714786127
I played this after THUG, THUG2 and THAW and it was shit.

>>714786654
THAW was already post-shark jumping for the series.

"Feature oversaturation" is what comes to mind.

>>714786762
Also, to >>714783039's point, that level was in THAW, if nothing else.

>>714782191
>>714786440
why didnt they just combine 3 with 1 + 2 ?

>>714787040
I mean that's what I said in >>714783636 but no one replied to me...

>>714777686 (OP)
Who the fuck is this even made for?
Zoomers don't skate and all the skaterboys are 60+ years old now

>>714783636
was anyone really asking for a 4 remake? i liked 4 a lot back in the day but they should have skipped it then instead of a weird bastardized version we got

>>714785864
Obsessed.

>>714787318
To those who bought 1+2? 1+2 was the fastest selling entry in the whole series.

>>714786762
THAW came with my launch Xbox 360 back in the day and I absolutely hated it. I don't even remember why exactly, but I ended up selling the copy to Gamestop really quickly. THUG 2 was just so much better, probably my favorite game in the entire series.

>>714777837
are there still get theres? They're not mentioned in the achievements list, which seem like a cakewalk compared to 1+2

>>714778231
No problem take your time

>>714787846
The campaign felt like a giant tutorial, the missions were so basic and going back to almost exclusively "talk to a guy, kickflip off this ramp into a grind". Esp after the more freeform structure of THUG 2, where most of the goals you could do at any time.
Project 8 was another iteration on THUG 2s structure and was the best career format in the series, but people got filtered by nextgen physics and comfiest maps in the series

>>714788734
I could see how people may not like the free kick flip mode, forgot what it was called, of P8, but you could mostly ignore that if you wanted. It was very rarely mandatory

>>714788348
I hope so. dreading repeating the campaign 30 fucking times for the plat when all I care about are the speedrun and online modes

>>714787846
>hated THAW
it was probably its pretentious cliche hollywood wannabe famous storyline constantly punching down on the player and the gameplay not being up to snuff to combat how annoying that was.
i looked up the soundtrack cus i dont remember shit about it and it was miniscule

THUG is the best in the series by a long way, best levels, best soundtrack, best story and it even brought back the classic mode and classic levels from THPS2.

>>714788904
Nail The Trick. It was a neat idea and I think a lot of people thought it was cool but yeah I just ignored it. Just looked corny and out of place in the game in my opinion. Like from a realistic skate perspective it looks absolutely retarded, and from an arcadey and stylish action perspective it's just dinky and slow.

>>714788904
Nail the trick was gimmicky, but you could ignore it outside of NTT goals. Thanks Skate 2006
Same thing with ragdoll bails i liked them tho

It's up for preload or to play for those who paid the extra money.

>>714789682
VV was always planning to put 3 and 4 in the same game. This project has been known about for years.

I'll be back in X years for the THUG remake

>>714789397
just the preload, people saying its playable 6am cet
friggin midnight est

>>714786127
This game would have been great if it didn't fucking hitch every few seconds. They actually made a real open world only for it to barely work.

>>714777686 (OP)
I liked 4, it felt like the levels were more alive, you were just skating around aimlessly, then took some challenges, than back to free skating, it was like you're really spending your whole day skating. And I love the original arcade formula as well, but 4 formula allowed for much bigger and complex and more alive levels.

>>714777837

>>714785583
>subscription required for a demo
what the fug

>>714790098
one of my big problems when replaying the past titles. THUG 2 did great by populating some of the older maps

Outside of the graphics and some extra levels is there anything actually 'better' than the PC versions?

>>714789397
you can play it on PC gaypass right now

I want more than Mikey, goddammit.

THPS5 shouldn't be the only legacy the whole team has in the series.

I don't really like these designs either but I'll take that as long as it means having all four of them.

>>714790676
Nothing compares to THUGPro, but the only people playing that online are turbo autists that keep the clock going past 00:00 with 3 minute long combos.

>>714778593
4 sucked, 2 minute mode is better

>>714790826
That's something I don't like about THPS. The "right" way to play it also makes the game look like shit, even if it's "impressive".

I really enjoy stringing together a clean run with lots of precision rather than spastically ramping up the multiplier, even though I recognize that is the only way to get an outrageous score.

They should have done 1+2+3 first and then 4+4 later, with both the PS2 and PS1 versions of 4.

>>714791064
That isn't a bad idea, exactly, but I don't know how they'd properly convey the differences (or consolidate) between the two games.

>>714790990
It's one of the reasons I came to appreciate the Skate series more in the long run. Much higher execution barrier, and it's just no feasibly possible to keep shit going for more than 15 seconds before you lose too much speed, unless you happen to be in an area with quite the decline, but then you're now stuck trying to not wipe going at high speeds while in a manual.

>>714788734
>>714788976
It also didn't have an actual downtown level despite being set in LA, which means it doesn't feel like LA and it's missing a bunch of cool terrain & famous skate spots

Is ThugPro just 2 minute runes or do they have the classic goals in there too?

Paramount's on board for both Sonic CrossWorlds and THPS...make the jump. Sega seems really eager for cross-promotion with the franchise these days.

>>714788976
I remember THAW's soundtrack because it's the only time a song appeared in one game then a cover of that song appeared in another ("Sonic Reducer").

>>714791836
THUGPro doesn't have any career or story mode AFAIK, it's basically made for online multiplayer or freeskate.

>>714791974
Exactly. Same with reTHAWed. Just empty maps.

>>714777686 (OP)
The removing of the career mode from 4 sucks, but the butchering of the soundtrack has done more damage to the game in my eyes. No amount of Jeff Rosenstock on the soundtrack will make me want to buy it.

>>714786127

how fucking autistic are the spergs who play this

>>714789701
No, he's right. THUG2's soundtrack is straight 10/10. None of the other games compare.

>>714792612
THAW was ported to PC.

But you miss out on the exclusive levels from the PS2 "Collector's Edition" version (Marseilles and Atlanta from THUG2 Remix).

>>714788734
based p8 enjoy. game runs so fucking bad, but something about the campaign challenges and trying to get sick on them was addicting. even the shitty broken bone ragdoll ones

>>714792654
THUG2, sure, I can definitely see the argument for. But he said "THUG", which was pretty forgettable.

>>714784362
all of those are insanely good skaters, especially yuto
you're probably just a bitch that only played skate videogames and never tried the sport itself or has any interest on it

>>714792771
>(Marseilles and Atlanta from THUG2 Remix).
It's crazy how fucking good THUG2R was on PSP. The texture quality took a dip (extremely noticeable in the cutscenes), but it ran a locked 30fps, and was the first "full fledged THPS without compromises on a handheld" entry.

>>714783636
3 was a DLC pack for Tony Hawk Pro Skater HD. I miss that version of the game, but the bastards took it off the steam store and resale prices are like 60 bucks.

>>714784362
anon, skating is definitely not a white man's sport. surely, you would know this by now?

>>714792916
American Sk8land was kino as well. And it definitely run better than, for example, silky smooth 13fps TPHS3 PS1 port.

>>714792654
It was solid but the first Underground's soundtrack was better

>>714792648
Its an abstract kind of autism, because clearly they aren't autistic enough to just play actual skateboarding sims like Session or Skate XL yet too autistic to play Tony Hawk for fun.

>>714792973
Only three levels (Canada, Airport, and Los Angeles).

...

Also, damn, I never thought I'd see someone say that. I actually was similar to you about it for the longest time but in recent time I can definitely see how wonky the game is. It wasn't a great THPS game, despite my initial review of the game.

In some ways THPS5 is slightly better (although overall the game was pretty stupid).

>>714792810
Ah, you're right, I misread it. I can't remember any of the tracks from THUG 1

>>714792973
I have that game on Steam still. I thought it was awful, the physics are so completely fucked in it. It felt terrible to play from what I remember

>>714793401
It had that one song by Deltron 5000 that struck a chord with me but I couldn't figure out why until I finally found out a) that's the same as Del the Funky Homosapien (AKA "Ya gotta wash yo ass") and b) I originally heard the song in Mat Hoffman's Pro BMX but I couldn't recall it at the time (since MHPB was a bit of a footnote game).

>>714783172
Seriously? They literally showed Carnival in the trailer. You better just be misinformed, anon, because if the devs are truly that fucking incompetent then I will lose all faith in pajeets

>>714793630

In fact for awhile they were seemingly avoiding showing stuff from THPS4 in general.

I was really looking forward to this, it's the perfect summer game, but if they butchered 4 that seems like a wait for sale to me. That's so disappointing.

That was Muska. Campbell had you fliptricking across a small gap.

>>714785108
Why grind on THPS? What is there even to grind for? The game is the exact same, they just attached a hamster wheel to it. Did you really fall for that shit?

>>714793953
Shit, I read that wrong. Ignore me, I was retarded.

>>714777686 (OP)
Iron galaxy is such a weird studio, why do they even exist. A game developer who is so shit at making games they can only work ontop of other people's pre-existing work, you would think by now natural selection would have weeded them out.

>>714786127
Project 8 isn’t bad, it just feels weirdly depressing to play. Tony looks visibly older, the game tries too hard to be funny and edgy, NPCs talk way too fucking much, it’s like the middle age crisis of Tony Hawk games

>>714794102
My guess is that its meant to be an entry level studio meant to be people's first job before moving onto the bigger studios within Activision/Blizzard/Microsoft/Bethesda/whatever. This is exactly the kind of project that you give the just-a-step-above-intern employees.

>>714793545
Incidentally I feel something similar about THPS2x, which could have been one of the BEST games in the series if that wasn't the case.

>tfw always did spins with the dpad as a kid

One of the most retarded posts I've seen in these threads.

>>714788734
My main problem with P8 was the tone and the fucking baseball bat to the face that was the “Nail the Trick” mechanic. Whoever thought taking a game about chaining combos hopping from one gap to the next traveling across the map and decides to slap slow-mo to that should be fucking beheaded

>>714794561
He's exactly right though. True skating autists moved on to the Skate XL and Session modding scene.

>>714794853
Skate sims are an entirely different genre from arcadey games like THPS though, it's like telling a Devil May Cry fan to "just go play Exanima" or something. It's also retarded to imply the people actually playing the game for hundreds of hours in its purest form without simple, piss easy goals telling them what to do for an hour before they bounce to another game are somehow "too autistic to play for fun". They are the ones having fun with the game, not the people crying about not having career or classic mode in the mods.

>>714777686 (OP)
I'm morbidly curious about how 4 works so I'll watch andyTHPS stream or whatever.
I'm sure the THPS3 portion is just as good as 1+2 but I can't support this. It's just too lazy. The map pack allegations are completely correct.

>>714790990
I never bother with that. Beyond just getting sick scores to fulfill goals, I don’t really care about big combos like that. Just seems like too much energy invested unwisely

>>714789682
>shitcan vicarious visions before they can finish THPS3 as 1+2 DLC
you can thank acitivision for sending the only talented studio to work in the warzone mines, this also included toys for bob

i watched an interview of the devs and they were condescending as fuck saying they changed 4's campaign to be timed because ''it just fits better''. they didn't even sound like they played the original at all.

>>714795679
It works just like THPS 1/2/3 levels. 2 minute timer, get a list of 10 goals to do.. there's high/pro/sick scores, collect SKATE, do [trick] over [gap], collect/hit these 5 [objects], secret tape, and a couple other goals per level, probably just a couple simpler goals from the actual THPS4 levels just put into the 2 minute format.

>>714792648
Imagine how good they'd be at actual skateboarding if they focused that autism on the real thing

>>714796072
I hate that argument so much. Sounds like fucking cope to me.
>uh akshually THPS4 always sucked, so we’re making a low effort, half assed version of it. i promise you, gamers, this is way better than the original. that’ll be $70 + tax, you’re welcome

That's how I feel about vidya in general and 4chan too tbqh

It will probably not sell as many copies as 1+2, I expect it to be at least 30% discounted by Christmas, I'll grab it then.

>>714796101
I never even liked 4 very much back in the day, but that's still really lame and shitty

>>714790098
I love that about the game too. The cars driving around, the NPCs interacting with the environment, the fact that some of them hit you if you stand too close to them for too long, the animals making noises and behaving differently depending on the animal, the NPCs hailing you and giving you goals and talking to you with actual voiced lines, the way they clap and cheer for you after completing their goal, the various minigames and how some of them involved NPCs. The world felt so alive. It was genuinely unsettling playing the levels on free skate because all of that was gone for some reason. It gave me an unironic “liminal horror” feeling. And now it looks like that’s exactly what this “remaster” is going for. Fucking hell

>3+4 is always-online
Hard pass.

One thing that bothers me more than it should is that the "box art" of the game is of their new waterpark level, not a level from THPS3 or 4. With everything else going on it really seems like they don't have a whole lot of respect or reverence for the games.

>>714797615
Seriously? Even on consoles?

>>714798063
They pretty clearly just took THPS1+2 and made their own rehash sequel to it. This is not 3 and 4.

>>714781545
Well played, anon. Well played...

The game tempt me but I'll wait until the price is lower, I think it's gonna be fine though
But I would like a BRAND NEW game next time, remake are cool but it's important to do new things too
(I would still instant buy a very polished remake of Underground though)
So where does it fit in the timeline?

>>714797615
So was 1+2.

>>714798678
Wasn't on my Switch or PS4 copies. Maybe PC? The PS4 box for 3+4 says network connection required this time around though.

>>714791191
It's because Skate is a proper skating simulator where THPS is an arcade style skating game.

>>714798868
Oh right you're paying for online.

>>714781545
Technically speaking, 5 did come out before 1+2, so 3+4 does technically equal 7 in a roundabout way.

Does this game have Spider-Man?

>>714799138
no? why would he be in a 3+4 remake, he was in 2 originally. and no he's not in 1+2 either, if anything 3+4 already has one point over that game just because it has any weird guest characters at all. the only ones in 1+2 were a generic ayy and jack black

>What pisses me off more are the people who defend this shit
always the same arguments too
>who cares you're still going to buy it
>its way better than the clunky original
>you just hate it because of nostalgia for the old one
>you just hate modern devs

>>714799265
desu I give them a pass on that one since Spiderman's right probably are a lot more complicated now than 25 years ago

>>714799305
>its way better than the clunky original
This one makes me angry, because they are kinda right in that the original wa annoying with constant interruptions to the gameplay (do you want to save, upgrade your skills etc) and remake would be the perfect opportunity to fix it.
Yes, I do want to save the game after finishing an objective.

>>714799521
yeah that's inevitable especially ever since the fuckin rat took control of marvel.
3's gonna feel oddly empty without darth maul in it though I have to say. I don't even like ep. 1 but that prequel hype train of its era really feels like an aspect that simply can't be replicated with "an enemy from Doom Eternal" and a ninja turtle that feels like it was randomly pulled out of a hat.

>>714777805
Not OP but I played the remake for 1 and 2 and didn't mind it too much but when I played the demo for 3 and 4 it felt absolutely awful. I'm not sure if anything actually changed or if for whatever reason I'm just no longer accepting of how dog shit it feels. I still have 4 on my PS2 and I'll just play it on there if I want to play it again.

>>714777686 (OP)
Shut up, fag, it's a solid game.

>>714799769
Weren't the ninja turtle already in a tony hawk game before? I think their game right are partially owned by Activision, so maybe they wanted a guest easy to keep.

>>714790931
Objectively wrong opinion

>>714777838
Breast Milk gang.

>>714796072
i can't find the interview but i can definitely picture devs of the DEI hire type launching up college level and getting stuck there because all the skaters have base stats, throwing their hands up at it and using that frustration as their excuse to change how 4 worked.

there's also several annoying problems with the scoring system that's going to make high score pro gameplay a lot more boring as prevzzy points out in this video:
https://youtu.be/8tKikii5r7k?t=750

>tl;dw
right at this timestamp, there's permanent revert speed reduction. the amount of speed you lose from a revert is based on how many you've done in the combo and not how recently you've done one. watch how much speed he has coming off the roof into this half pipe and he's pulled to a dead stop, ending his combo line. it just doesn't make sense.

there's also no point reduction for spamming individual tricks, so in terms of high scoring, the difference between high skill gameplay and lower skill gameplay is only how long you can hold a cheese combo doing only kickflips.

these remasters introduce a spin bug, where points are only awarded to the trick you did after a special trick while spinning, and not the special trick you did before it.

>>714790098
>>714797348
I was thinking about this pretty recently, it's surprising how alive THPS 4 felt for a game that old.

>>714800351
>the amount of speed you lose from a revert is based on how many you've done in the combo and not how recently you've done one.
Holy shit that's the most retarded idea ever, why did they do this?

I just wanna know what they inevitably replaced the bikini babes with on Cruise Ship

Just came here to remind people THUG 1 is better than Jackass the videogame (THUG 2).

>>714800691
revert speed reduction was in the original thps4 as well i believe. i recall throwing myself off of roofs into bowls trying to chain a combo in the corner of a bowl, and finding out that you literally cannot keep it going forever.

the point is more for high level gameplay for people who can actually chain so many reverts to the point it's actively stopping you. why should this be in the game the way it is? there are no other tricks that give you this kind of penalty.

>No Riders X SSX crossover
>No Riders X THPS crossover
it's easy fucking money, even Mario was in an SSX.

>>714802070
THUG1 sucks ass. 2 has a much better campaign mode (not story, but the fact that you call it "jackass the videogame" tells me you're already more concerned with story than gameplay anyway) and a proper classic mode. nevermind some of the best maps in the franchise between classics like canada and warehouse along new ones like barcelona

>>714802193
I've been replaying SSX 3 again lately and the game is still an absolute blast. I would say I'd like a remaster of it but it would more than likely be a disaster like most remakes.

>>714802318
The guest characters are awful, and the ones that aren't glorified cars are just shittier skaters than your custom one. The locals are better, which do matter, but the pacing is all over the place. To a point where it just feels like arcade more with a story slapped on.

Only thing I can remember being notable from THUG 2 was (better wall riding, natas spins and I think better-er parkouor). But the guest characters ruined it, the lacations are only better in size/scale. But that hardly matters when there are more missions asking you to go on foot.

What I will meet you in the middle on is, even THUG 1 has shit missions (anything with a car) that distract from the game, but as a game based around your skater, it does a better job all around. THUG 2 is mostly Bam running the show, you being in the background for 50% of it, then credits as you play the final levels that feel like they weren't finished for the campaign but here you go!

Fuck those lame ass wastes of time, the former worked better in Jet Set because the games were made with tagging in mind.

I honestly stopped giving a shit about skateboarding games.
Now that all these skate shoes from my childhood are being reissued, I can go out and do wish fulfillment skating.

>>714803156
>SOUL SKATING

>>714802649
As much as I loved THUG 2 I do have to admit I remember feeling like the end of the game was really rushed.

>>714803463
And they were cool levels, but a temple, a space level and Hell are obviously bonus arcade levels. Unless your skater was on a movie set. But yeah, really diminishes the main story when it just closes on that.

>>714803630
Yeah I remember thinking they were really cool but iirc there's basically nothing to actually do in them other than free skate.

>>714803630
that level wasn't part of the main story, it was in Classic Mode. And if you're gonna complain about it being out of place then what does that make Roswell, Skate Heaven, Cruise Ship, that random KISS concert from THUG 1 etc.

>>714804140
Main Story throws you into those levels homie.

>>714804212
Also mainstory had the voodoo witch-doctor, zombies and a hole to Hell. THUG 2 to the THPS series is almost like Saints Row 3 to Saints Row.

The devs also removed the police chase in THPS3's downtown because it's ''problematic''

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMpq4DWo5NA&t=408s

>>714807408
Holy shit these devs are faggots.

>>714807408
Guess what else would be problematic? Me not boughtening this garbage, very problematic.

>>714807408
Gonna continue playing PROTHUG and RETHAW, thanks gay devs.

even PSX version of THPS4 had NPC-like goals

Is Daisy (Jenna Jameson) still in it?

>no set / goto cust restart

>>714807408
Why are game devs all such huge faggots now?

>>714812172
All non-faggots (aka skilled developers) were either fired, or left themselves to work a proper developer job.

>impress the neversoft girls is gone
Of course it is. Men can't like women in this day and age. Fags only.
