A look into 5 spinoff games that proved to be better than that which birthed them.
Tony Hawk's Underground took skater games to a whole new level.
I recall not liking the idea of this game, when I was younger. Then, when I actually tried it at a friend's house. I absolutely loved it. Wish we could get another one on modern systems...
I personally considered this game the last great Tony hawk game before the series fell from grace.
It was already releasing far to frequently and had started following trends urban setting in underground then jackass for underground 2 instead of leading it like with thps 1/2 .
So I was really disappointed with underground 2 at the time it was basically jackass the game but watching low poly model characters hurt each other I found really boring. Then we went to American wasteland which was ok and project 8 that was kind of an anomaly as it was actually good on everything except the PS3 I somehow found the PS2 version was simply the best version of it.
Wasteland was horrible and the motion controlled games garbage and thps5 makes me want to puke.
Funny thing is the remake of 1 and 2 reminded me of how fun these games can be so I'll be blowing the dust of of my disc and popping it my PS2 to replay underground this weekend.
