@@andyenglish4303 It's not just pressing buttons with a Guitar controller, holding the guitar feels much better and way more fun to use over a normal controller as you can get into the music while playing while maximizing your finger dexterity. It's also extremely simplified from how real guitars work and yet it doesn't subtract from the games themselves in the least. It makes complete sense why you would try and do that same thing with a board when the Wii had already been doing that with the Wii Mat. People who are playing this game aren't going to be looking for a realistic Skateboarding simulator, just close enough that they can pretend like they are which is the same reason people play Guitar Hero and never learn how to actually play the Guitar, while other people who do play can still enjoy it for what it is. The only problem I can see with this board unlike the Guitar controller is that it would break very often just due to the constant full body weight put on it combined with the rough movements needed to pull off tricks. It needs to be extremely durable while containing the working parts of a motion controller inside and be affordable, but as the video points out it had none of those qualities so it was doomed from the start.

It’s been rumored that Robomodo took maps from previous games (THUG 1/2) when working on THPS HD, slapped a few extra graphical effects on top, and reworked them into a new engine. It’d make sense as to why so many challenges just don’t work with the new physics. Rad Rat made a pretty great video analyzing that game-he definitely puts his evidence together for Robomodo’s laziness in a pretty profound way, but I now suspect much of their “laziness” is due to them operating with a much smaller staff and the need to meet a strict deadline.

2:50 American Wasteland doesn't get enough respect. Yeah, like all of the later Tony Hawk games, it isn't well polished. But I think it's the best out of all the free-roaming games in the series. It took the better ideas from the THUG games and improved upon them. The settings, characters, and vandalism-heavy premise are a lot of fun. The skating still felt great, it had a TON of modes and classic levels. In my opinion it was the following game, Project 8, where the series really started to go off the rails (although I respect the innovations they attempted in P8).

Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2, will always be my favorite in the series, especially the soundtrack with one of my favorite song's of all time "When world's collide" by Powerman 5000.
Fun fact about this game: Someone at my school just gave me this. For free. Because it sucked so much he was like "Just take it." It was like the game was cursed.
Did you take it tho?
Try burning it. It probably won't.
That's how shitty 2000s creepypastas start, friend.
Did you at least know this kid? Because if it was just some random stranger then the odds of it being cursed rise to 100% I'm afraid.
I had the same experience with Black & White 2
The entire Guitar Hero could be a What Happun, though it could also be summed up as "Activision farted 40 Guitar Hero games per week".
Yeah, the "they went on the yearly assembly line" schtick is completely inaccurate. They packed 10 games into a year and a half.
A double feature...guitar hero and rock band
They were trying so hard to compete with Rockband, which was a more superior experience in my opinion
@@mariokarter13 To be specific, between 2009 and 2010, the following games came out. - Guitar Hero 5 - Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock - Guitar Hero: Van Halen - Guitar Hero: Metallica - Guitar Hero: Smash Hits - Band Hero - Guitar Hero On Tour: Modern Hits - DJ Hero - DJ Hero 2 And that's just the stuff that was released to a console.
They probably knew the guitar controller music game would be a short lived fad and tried to squeeze it as quick as possible, only to kill it even faster.
Now we know why Griffith sacrificed his men to THE HAWK and his skateboard. And why Guts sided with Margera.

I want to play Tony Hawk's Mid-life Crisis!
That’s pretty much Tony’s twitter feed
@@conorm9575 I'm serious. If somebody had the balls to make a game about aging pro skaters like Tony and Bam, give them age-related diseases/injuries that had to be overcome in order to improve their skills, and had a bonus video at the ending which showed clips of grandparents and geriatrics busting their asses on concrete while trying to do tricks then I would play the fuck out of it! Between THPS and Skate, everything else that can be done with skateboarding in a video game has been done. Why not make one where you have to rehabilitate your hip replacement and time jumps so they don't cause a malfunction with your pacemaker? I know this sounds like a joke, but it really isn't.
Here I am, doing everything I can...
Make a Logan-like movie, call it "Hawk."
Thank god for THPS 1+2 saving the franchise!

It was fun while it lasted. And then Vicarious got merged with Blizzard and the rumored 3+4 remaster ended up getting scrapped.
That one didn’t age quite so well.

Honestly my favourite hawk game will always be the first underground, that shit blew my mind back in the day.
I’d also be hard-pressed to say it has the best soundtrack of the whole bunch. THPS 3’s soundtrack is a close second, tho.
Eric Sparrow is an underrated villian.

@@sirkarl0s593 Fuck Eric, freaking douchebag.

Man, the downfall of the Tony Hawk games was certainly a WIPEOUT! (The use of Spyro 3's Enchanted Tower's Skatepark Theme as an outro just was beautiful, perfectly edited in!)
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD: I'll be the closest thing to a good Tony Hawk game people will get these days. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2: Poser. Step aside and let the expert take it from here.
Tony hawk’s underground is still the best game to play to date. We finally were able to get off the damn board.
"I wanna make a skateboard you can stand on." Does....does Tony know that skateboards exist in real life? You think he of all folks would know.
@@meggaman7 Honestly that wouldn't have been a bad idea if they didn't have a shitty designed board.
@@andyenglish4303 It's not just pressing buttons with a Guitar controller, holding the guitar feels much better and way more fun to use over a normal controller as you can get into the music while playing while maximizing your finger dexterity. It's also extremely simplified from how real guitars work and yet it doesn't subtract from the games themselves in the least. It makes complete sense why you would try and do that same thing with a board when the Wii had already been doing that with the Wii Mat. People who are playing this game aren't going to be looking for a realistic Skateboarding simulator, just close enough that they can pretend like they are which is the same reason people play Guitar Hero and never learn how to actually play the Guitar, while other people who do play can still enjoy it for what it is. The only problem I can see with this board unlike the Guitar controller is that it would break very often just due to the constant full body weight put on it combined with the rough movements needed to pull off tricks. It needs to be extremely durable while containing the working parts of a motion controller inside and be affordable, but as the video points out it had none of those qualities so it was doomed from the start.
I hated that shit honestly
Like the Rollin Rocker by LJN? Because that worked brilliantly LOL
@@DustenRust It did. If you had some Rolling Rock.
Now we need a sequel to this since Tony hawk pro skater 1+2 came, it seems that the Hawk had a happy ending after all.
There was, but Tony himself said that the project was cancelled as soon as the merger was made.
Coming from the future to say: YES! Tony Hawk's is flying again thanks to THPS 1+2!
It's been almost 5 months since THPS 1 + 2. What a refreshing happy ending to this story here. Wish I could say the future is bright to this franchise, but Vicarious vision got absorbed by Blizzard. :(
Matt, along with Blood II, these latest wha happuns are some of your best yet! You sound reinvigorated in your VO, and the editing is top notch. A+
"Wha Happun?" needs a "where are they now?" Section in the show.
True, more content to explore too!
I’m so glad we got the Pro Skater 1+2 Remakes to wash the taste of 5 out of our mouths
1:26 Oh boy, that game is gonna make Jim Sterling lose his mind.
I thought the same thing
I actually won a Tony hawk ride game with the board from a legit scavenger hunt he did for the game. Tweeted to me and everything when I found it lmao. It sucks ass and sits in my closet to this day
Please elaborate on the hunt
F
BigBossBob hunt ???
Get a cheap copy of Shred for £1 in a CeX or somewhere like that, the board works quite well in that game I’ve heard. They just needed more time to make the motion controls work.
*Hears and sees 'Skeleton Warriors'* *Immediately thinks of Jim Sterling*
Man, Tony Hawk should really just try to spearhead Skate 4 at this point
If he did, it'd be called Skate 4 (and Some Dude Named Tony Hawk). Because "Tony Hawk's (Pro) Skate(r) 4" is taken.
@@jmal thats not what he meant. He was saying any future games in the series should adopt the play engine from the skate series, not make a game called Skate 4
Naa, Tony Hawk should just stop pitching ideas from old, 90's, arcade games
Hi Rem Lezar
Skate is owned by EA and until they figure out a way to have tricks locked behind microtransactions they're probably not gonna make another Skate game, unfortunately.
I'd love to see a "Road Rash: What Happened?" video. That's a franchise I think with the right dev team could make a comeback one day.
Thank you!
...and now, we having a good Tony Hawk 1+2, and looks amazing that TH announce didn't aged well
I swear, I was expecting him to say Shred sold 9 copies, and somehow my brain accepted that in a fraction of a second before he added 'thousands'
That happens to me all the fucking time.
Fun fact, Pro Skater 2 remains the single highest rated game of all time on Metacritic. Breath of the Wild is second.
Behind ocarina of Time
For good reason
Zelda is shit
It's a good game but I'd put it second to breath of the wild
This isn’t true. It’s the second highest, second to Zelda ocarina of time. Behind thps is gta4. Breath of the wild isn’t even until 13th place
7:48 "Vegeta! What does the scanner say about its sales numbers?!" "... Not much."

The Underground series was insanely fun. Those were the final swansong of Neversoft.
Gun was one of their most underrated titles. Neversoft made some dope ass games before they got absolved by Infinity Ward.
@@Kaufmancab51 i loved gun beat the thing the whole way threw i liked it even more then the orginal red dead redemption
The first one. The second one was just Tony Hawks goat simulator... way to much nonsense to be fun. At least for a normal adult.
@@davidaames64 I totally agree. THUG 2 should have just been Viva La Bam the video game. I still play the first one to this day. American Wasteland was decent to, I just didn't like how increasing the difficulty just changed the number of objectives you had to complete instead of making the objectives harder.
“final swan song” is redundant
The 8 bit Smells Like Teen Spirit in the background is amazing 😂

@@armyofninjas9055 Of course they won't... at launch. Yeah joking aside, I wouldn't trust anything that's said about that. I haven't forgotten what they did to CTR.
@@AkumaKristian Yeah they'll probably do the same, put a store that rotates every X hours like in CTR and make profit out of it, which will be fucking disgusting
It’s been rumored that Robomodo took maps from previous games (THUG 1/2) when working on THPS HD, slapped a few extra graphical effects on top, and reworked them into a new engine. It’d make sense as to why so many challenges just don’t work with the new physics. Rad Rat made a pretty great video analyzing that game-he definitely puts his evidence together for Robomodo’s laziness in a pretty profound way, but I now suspect much of their “laziness” is due to them operating with a much smaller staff and the need to meet a strict deadline.
I'm like 99% sure that Raphael model is the same from the P* TMNT game.

oh my gosh i remember Ride. i remember seeing tony hawk get up on stage and talk about this controller and thinking "that's cool. i don't play those games but that's cool." and then i never heard of it again. now i see why...there was a sequel? WHAT?
You know what the real legacy of the Tony Hawk games is when your trying to tune out Matt and listen to the sweet tunes in the background.
That series is probably the primary reason I have an affinity for punk music. Back in the day the only other kind of punk music you'd hear was the pop variety on FM radio a la Green Day or Blink 182. This OST was something else, and something great that sidestepped a lot of gatekeepers in the music industry. It did the same for hip-hop as well to a degree.
American Wasteland was great, yo, what you chattin? Downhill Jam was where it, ironically, started going downhill and Proving Ground was the one that proved it wasn't coming back up again.
I'd say it was around the time of Project 8.
I loved AW as a kid, but replaying it recently, boy it has some issues. I found the missions boring as fuck and the off-board controls are sloppy as a cheap pitstop burger.
I really liked how weird and wild Underground 2 - American Wasteland got, haven't played them in years, THPS 4 still is pretty solid of a game.
@@Jt1Torso1Winabego Agreed. It's hard for me to pick a favourite but 4 is pretty damn great. Awesome game to tune out to with a podcast.
The worst part about Downhill Jam was that there was no freeskate mode so you could just check out the levels.
The Smells Like Teen Spirit MIDI was a very nice touch. Oh man, Winamp flashbacks..
Thanks for including the music from spyro 3’s skating sections at the end there.
I would love to see an episode on some of the PS2 fighting games. Like MK deception, Armageddon, Bloody Roar etc.
As of today, it was announced that THPS 1 and 2 are being remade ! wtf.
I’m hype the people that are doing the remake did the crash remake so I hype there’s some gameplay already
I really enjoy the quality of your research and your presentation style
I love that you used Pleather For Breakfast from No More Heroes in this video.

Hahah, thanks.
Also Matt, Whatever Happun to Star Fox Zero?
the WiiU happened. thats all there is to it, without that gamepad inclusion and a better console it would have turned out way better.
There’s a good game somewhere in Starfox Zero. Deep deep in there. Buried. Underneath shit.
Nintendo's obsession with weird gameplay inovations happened. I don't hink it's a much deeper story than that.
@@DanoLefourbe More like Miyamoto's. Even Aonuma of The Legend of Zelda threw shade on forcing down gameplay innovations with the gamepad. "Imagine driving your car. All your information is in front of you. Now imagine if all of that was on your lap instead! You'd crash for sure!" - Eiji Aonuma on why Breath of the Wild did not have Wii U GamePad Support

Can you do a video about Agent? That Rockstar game that was teased once and we know nothing about it
2:50 American Wasteland doesn't get enough respect. Yeah, like all of the later Tony Hawk games, it isn't well polished. But I think it's the best out of all the free-roaming games in the series. It took the better ideas from the THUG games and improved upon them. The settings, characters, and vandalism-heavy premise are a lot of fun. The skating still felt great, it had a TON of modes and classic levels. In my opinion it was the following game, Project 8, where the series really started to go off the rails (although I respect the innovations they attempted in P8).
Loving that No More Heroes tracks Matt!

Tony Hawks Underground was actually my favorite game in the franchise. It had it all, the great gameplay of the first three games, a kickass soundtrack, and a really engaging story that I was hungry for more of. ...then Underground 2 came out, had literally none of that, and didn't connect at all to the first game in any way. I was so excited for it, and had such truly massive disappointment upon its arrival that I never bought another Tony Hawk branded thing ever again. Super sad about it though, a real sequel in the vein of like, a Mass Effect 2, would have been amazing.
Maux as a Jackass fan, Underground 2 was awesome!
"Influencers" Yes, I hate that word too.
