Is it realistic for me to wait until they bundle both remakes together as one game or is that never going to happen

>>715919043
don't wait, skate

>>715919043
I mean it's surprising they didn't do that by releasing 3+4 as DLC, it's the exact same engine.

Tony Hawks existential crisis 4

got my refund, bros

>>715917758
It "fixed" it in the same way putting a Band-Aid on a bullet wound does. Yeah it looks prettier, but the soul's gone. Physics are floaty, tricks are overanimated, and the soundtrack got gutted. It’s a nostalgia husk.

>>715919746
imagine how many people played 3 for hours only to move on to 4 expecting a full remake and then they can't get a refund

Oh man I'm laffin. If you don't know then you're just hard confirming you've never played the originals once. It's immediately apparent 5 seconds into the game. For someone who wants to lord above others, you exposed yourself as not knowing shit real quickly, you little zoom zoom

>>715918964
Why

>>715917326 (OP)
This is one of the first games I played when I busted out my PS2. Such a great game, difficulty gets kinda fucked later though.

I think it's a shame what the remake did, the dumbass characters you help around the maps is part of the charm. A lot of the dialogue is missing.

All the bullshit surounding the remake of 3 is pushing me back to replaying THPS4. They butchered the game, they turned it into a level pack. You faggots dont understand why the game is so good. There's nothing left but to just play it and let you froggets cook in the pot.

the soundtrack being so gutted is what ruined it for me, so many missing songs and the free roam from 4, I'm glad I got goypass for the month because I would've felt scammed if I bought this game for full price
>>715926194
that's a you problem mr retard, I got high enough scores fucking around and using gaps, maybe you just suck at the game and don't know how to have fun

>>715929408
someone explain the timeline to this pleb

>>715929376
Most of those are in game.

>>715919424
i dont think they could get away with gutting those 2 games together like they did with 4 here. my bet that if they do remake those is that they will be standalone, just remaking THUG by itself and maybe THUG2 down the line.

The power of contrarianism is really something.
Before this remake came along, EVERYONE agreed that THPS4 not only had the weakest levels from the first 6 games, but that career mode sucked.

>>715931321
>EVERYONE agreed that THPS4 not only had the weakest levels from the first 6 games, but that career mode sucked.

>>715932697

>>715932697
Yeah I think people don't realise or just gloss over the fact Chicago is a Mat Hoffman 2 level and not designed for THPS.

>>715929376
You forgot dodging monkeys throwing shit at you

>>715919949
The soundtrack for 4 was fucking overplayed commercial garbage, and even the original 3 and 4 were soulless as fuck compared to 1 and 2. The completely DEI'd demake is way better than 4 deserves in the first place. 3's missing tracks piss me off way more than anything else, as all of the tracks that aren't there are the ones I associate with the game.

Why get rid of all sex appeal, bikini girls, etc.?

>>715931321
>EVERYONE
Never underestimate the stupidity of people. How many people have ever mentioned how fucking retarded it is for the completion of a goal to play a cutscene in 3 in the last 20+ years?

>>715938142
DEI, but to be fair, Neversoft clearly just stole the design for Demoness from Purgatori, and used porn actresses likenesses without permission.

demake

>>715930605
no that's the meta no one cares about your autistic shitter la la land gameplay

>>715938142
Actually?? The removal of the bikini girls in the THPS3 remake is literally the bare minimum. Like, sorry your childhood nostalgia doesn’t override basic human dignity. It's a good thing they removed the bikini girls from the cruise ship level. Objectifying women as literal set dressing was never okay, and updating that is just basic decency. Women aren’t props, and the cruise ship isn’t Hooters. Grow up. And “Ollie the Magic Bum”? Yeah, THPS 1+2 still had him, and that was a mistake. Turning a clearly mentally ill, unhoused man into a skateable obstacle is peak 2000s cringe. It’s classist, ableist, and frankly just gross. Wow, love that the original games made dehumanizing unhoused people into a joke. That’s not “classic humor,” that’s just punching down. The fact that anyone is mad about these updates is so telling. If you think treating people with respect is “ruining games,” maybe log off and touch some empathy. Remakes are about progress, not preserving your problematic playground.

>>715942407
And speaking of outdated relics skating on privilege - the fact that Bam Margera is still in the THPS remake despite everything is absolutely infuriating. The devs tried to do the right thing and remove him and Tony Hawk personally overruled them? That’s not just disappointing, it’s enabling. Bam has a long, public history of abusive behavior, and keeping him in the game sends a clear message: nostalgia is more important than accountability. So we can remove a background bikini NPC but not a real-life walking red flag? Cool priorities. At some point, Tony needs to take responsibility for the platform his name provides. Silence (or worse, interference) is complicity.

Tony Hawk needs to be canceled. The remakes didn't make it fucking gay enough. Only 99% gay. It needs to be 100% gay now he will pay.

>>715931321
People agreed that 4 was the weakest of the good games but that wasn’t because of the career mode

>>715942407
TL;DR - you're a fag

Kareem Campbell after doing a shove-it in 3+4: Yayyy I did it!

>>715943078
The skater voices are really gay, I’m glad you’re able to turn them off

>>715943191
Even though you can turn them off, it is tainted. Kids will play the game and leave it at default settings and grow up to be gay because they played this.

tfw Tony Hawk is so old and senile that he gets repeatedly scammed by frauds telling him they'll make his games. Meanwhile there are 9-year-olds doing 900s back-to-back in competitions. The least he can do is make sure his games aren't shit because he's not doing much else. Just makes his games looks like he's just trying to make a quick buck to head out to Epstein Island 2 again.

The originals are not only better but they're free

>>715942407
Jesus Christ man, it’s a Tony Hawk game, not a goddamn ethics dissertation. Nobody booted up THPS3 thinking “wow I sure hope this game affirms my worldview on homelessness and gender politics.” People just wanted to tail slide off a helicopter and gap into a McTwist. You act like the polygon bikini lady personally assaulted you. If digital CGI cleavage is your tipping point for “human dignity,” maybe YOU need to log off and have a juice box.

>EVERYONE agreed that THPS4 not only had the weakest levels from the first 6 games, but that career mode sucked
you mean some random youtuber that you parrot your opinions from

Is there a soundtrack mod yet? I actually like a lot of the new punk and and metal stuff they added, so it would be could to just add onto it instead of replace

God Approved Insurance Plan is such a good fucking song, holy shit. Hollywood Sucks// might be the worse song I've ever heard.

If you are going to emulate (like a retarded tranny), atleast play the PS2 versions you fucking mongoloid. Xemu only for THPS 2X.

>>715922902
4 has one issue, only one: being constantly asked to save the game is annoying. Changing it to saving the game in the background, like every game nowadays, would make it the best Tony hawk game ever. And they did not do it.

this thread stinks of chatGPT.

>>715917326 (OP)
>buys game

Its gaming time.

>>715945905
Wow, imagine getting this pressed over basic decency in a video game. Like, you’re really out here frothing at the mouth because someone dared to suggest that maybe, just maybe, women don’t need to be bikini-clad NPCs frozen in time to validate your 2002 hormone flashbacks? And sorry if “Ollie the Magic Bum” doesn’t hit the same in an era where we actually acknowledge systemic issues instead of turning vulnerable people into quirky obstacles. If that triggers your “let me just skate lol” sensibilities, maybe reflect on why treating people like people feels so radical to you. But go off, king, enjoy being mad at acknowledging basic human dignity. I just hold people and media to a higher standard. If that makes you uncomfortable, maybe interrogate why your bar is so low you trip over it. Not everyone’s okay settling for “just a game” when that game casually reinforces garbage views. I’ll continue holding things accountable - you can keep crying about it.

>>715950932
Man shut the fuck up and make some based mods for this game instead of faggot shit.

>>715951206
Wow. Just wow. The fact that your immediate reaction is to lash out with that level of hostility instead of engaging in a nuanced discourse about the ethical implications of retroactive media curation honestly says so much. You're mad because I care too much? Sorry that I don't treat media like brainless entertainment and actually interrogate the sociopolitical structures embedded in level design and character representation. Not everyone is content to just “vibe” while skating past decades of systemic issues coded into polygon models. If your knee-jerk response is to shout nonsense instead of engaging in even a basic good-faith discussion about representational ethics in game design, cling to outdated tropes and throw tantrums over cultural literacy, maybe you’re not ready for conversations that exist outside your nostalgia bubble. It's honestly embarrassing. You're mad that I care about the deeper implications of media you mindlessly consume? Sorry I don't think "modding" is some sacred fix-all for foundational problems baked into outdated design philosophies. Maybe if more people actually reflected on what they’re perpetuating, we wouldn’t still be having these exhausting conversations in 2025. But sure, go off about “based mods” while ignoring the entire discourse. Must be so freeing to live in a world where critical thought is optional.

>>715948106
Why not just do the Xbox versions for 3 and 4 too?

>>715952437
Xbox only has 2 shoulder buttons. You have to pull both at the same time to spine/acid drop/level out. The shoulder buttons are also the spin buttons. 3 would be fine, 4 not so much.

Tony himself wants it but at this point it's better off not happening. Iron Galaxy doesn't have the resources for a much bigger pair of games, and Vicarious Visions were murdered into Blizzard Albany. There's virtually no value in attempting this.

>>715921729
>THPS 1+2 has so many radical changes to the core gameplay that it in no way resembles an actual remake of THPS1 and THPS2
i mean sure the manual/grind trick switching can't be toggled off, but you can remove the other additions. otherwise you're basically just looking at three notable things: physics changes so the gaps aren't 1:1, movelist changes because they didn't perfectly align every returning skater with their old stuff, and goals having scores raised to accommodate for new score potential. and if you're gonna be THAT fucking pedantic about it, then what's the point of even playing these to begin with when you're clearly more set on the originals or 2X

What's stopping you from just muting the game soundtrack and using a youtube or spotify playlist of the original soundtrack? That's what I do with most games that have a licensed soundtrack (not GTA though) or a really repetitive score (like the new Tokyo Extreme Racer)

>>715958543
Did it go away again?

If it doesn't come from the game it doesn't count.

>be told it's a faithful remake because it was advertised as one

>even though part of the price of the base game and the dlc is the dogshit music
>dude just use youtube or spotify lol dont forget to buy a subscription so you don't get ads

>>715952437
At the end of the day if you're emulating these games, there really isn't any big advantages the Xbox versions have on any single title until American Wasteland's 360 port, if you can consider bloom and extra effects worth it. 2X is kind of standalone as its own thing, but since you can already bump up the render resolution and the PS2 versions were only a little blurrier on textures, the performance gain you'd get on PCSX2 or Dolphin versus what Xemu can try to put it is pretty substantial.
It says a lot that the PC versions seem to generally use the PS2 versions as a basis for the ports rather than the Xbox versions.

>>715929408
Tony Hawks 4 was never good. The series was on its way out with 4 till Underground came and saved it.

>>715931321
I played them growing up and you are correct. 4 was always shit and the worst up to that point. Most people were done with the series after shitty 4 until they changed it up and made Underground next.

>>715958948
The soundtrack was online before the game was out. It's your fault for spending money on things you don't like. Should've waited for a sale or something. You sound like a petulant manchild. Were you raised in a single mother household? The feminine entitlement gives it away

>>715959835
THPS4 innovated and then THUG did again

>>715959516
The band even made a statement essentially saying "wtf m8". To me Wish is as iconic in 3 as Superman is to 1

>>715959961
you tried kid

Everyone knows the remakes are not worth shit and the developers might have wanted to do a more ambitious project or release them 5 years ago as a dlc, but they were constantly fucked with by the suits so they didn't get to develop it in peace or consistently. But they are also not worse than 3/5 so people will buy the slop.

I honestly think it's a bunch of 22 year old grifters that never played a tony hawk game in their life just looking for something to rage about on twitter. It'd be one thing to complain about the port being unfaithful but they keep trying so hard to pretend like they're diehard fans of what has always been considered one of the weakest games in the franchise.

I feel like it's really telling that they were way more focused on Bam being cut until he got announced to return and then immediately pivoted into their backup complaint of "but 4 tho"

Well that would have been an improvement for the remake, and would have avoided all the controversy
>we've remade thps4, and added an additional CLASSIC MODE - taking its best goals and porting them to a new time attack mode that works exactly like thps3
This is what you would expect from a remaster - the same content that the fans are nostalgic for, plus new additions
Instead they either cheaped out and made a big issue out of nowhere, or worse, they genuinely thought everyone would be universally happy about this

>people complaining about the songs not included from 3

>>715966083
it's simply a crash grab scam. they did less work and they're using the excuse that it was "problematic" to add. this was made for a quick buck. there's no reason to have a remaster that's worse than the original and has less content besides a quick buck. tony hawk needs money.

THPS4 was great and I'm tired of pretending it wasn't.

I can't believe people like the "story" mode of any of the Tony Hawk games. It's fucking tedious to go around and do the shitty easy missions and the stories aren't exactly great. The best story they managed was Underground and the best open world missions was project 8. Neither were good in 4

I'm having fun with my 3 remake that came with some extra levels based on the shitty 4th game
That said it should have been DLC for 1+2 back in 2021. I highly suspect that it was originally before getting scrapped when VV got absorbed into the COD mines and this was a salvage project.
