Tony Hawks Pro Skater 5 review | Eurogamer

EG:
Why, when Activision has seemingly taken so much care and attention with its elegant revival of Guitar Hero? Why, when Activision has supported Bungie's triumphant overhaul of Destiny? This is a publisher that cares deeply about its marquee titles - after all, its bets are placed on perilously few of them. Seemingly, it comes down to a simple contractual obligation. The Tony Hawks license runs out at the end of the year. The game had to be ready for its deadline, even if wasn't ready for its deadline. It's an explanation that goes some way to absolve the development team, who no doubt gave their all and worked as hard as they could within the time that was available. Regardless, to charge full price for a game that is so clearly ramshackle is scandalous. Not even the glitches can save Tony Hawks 5. They are too narrow in range to sustain our interest. A skater disappearing in dry concrete is funny the first time. But the joke wears pretty thin when it's repeated this often, especially when it comes at such a high price for everyone involved.

Its not a great game but I tell you what it's a good bit of fun for when I can't be bothered with serious gaming for a bit so I'm enjoying it

equal_youth3152d ago

I really wanted to get it because i had great fun with the old games on the ps2 and this reminded me a lot of them. But after all this negative reviews i'm not so sure anymore.

I think i just wait for a sale or at least a major update to fix the issues.

Online Multiplayer looks really fun.
Is the Combo System comparable to the old ProSkater Games?

eeblaman3152d ago

Well as for everyone saying its a glitchy mess I haven't had a single bad glitch. The online tbh seems a bit pointless as you just skate with other people around you and my main issue is they have changed how specials work but I'm having fun with it despite this ,whether this is just a case of nostalgia getting the better of me I dunno but I don't believe it deserves the horrendous reviews it's getting at all

Sega Saturn made it but not the 360. Don't remember Saturn having a horrid rrod rate. Absolutely horrid

The launch games were all right, but look at how Virtua Fighter and Daytona USA compared to their re-releases.

Surprised TLOU2 isn't up there!

TheProfessional1266d ago (Edited 1266d ago )

Last guardian was simplistic, overhyped trash. And I liked Ico and Shadow of the Colossus. The level design was bad and the controls weren't even responsive, it was terrible. Took them sooo long to release it too which is why that guy hasn't made another game since.
