Looks great. This was definitely my favourite of the pro skaters, I was still playing it until about 2008.

RIPSKATEDESTROY4450d ago

it even adds a tiny baldspot on tony hawk! loving it

No contest

The PS1 version looks way better

dirthurts4450d ago

I know right.
I mean just check out that move he's doing.
Sliding with the deck below the rail? Intense.

M_Prime4450d ago

i know remaking video games is the IT thing now but really THPS1?

i spent way WAY WAY more time with THPS2.. heck i finished the game with EVERY CHARACTER! even kid Tony.

THPS3 is where it went downhill..

Reibooi4450d ago

If i remember correctly this isn't a direct HD remake of the first game. They are just calling it THPS HD but I'm pretty sure it has levels from both the original and the 2nd game. Pretty sure I read that in many of the articles talking about it soon after it was announced.

I'm personally looking forward to it. This could be exactly what the franchise needs. Times have changed and it's harder to get people to buy a full blown THPS game and the stupid gimmicks that were ruining the franchise really didn't help. However smaller PSN or XBLA releases sounds like a great idea.

Well if you took any time to look further into the game outside of this screen shot you would know its actually taking the better levels, moves, characters and features from the first few and putting them into this remake. Its essentially a tribute to the PS1 versions that many loved and made the genre so big for a decade+.

MaxXAttaxX4450d ago

Pro Skater HD mixes both THPS1 and THPS2.

SSultan4450d ago

I must strongly disagree. THPS1 started the madness and I can see how it stands out. THPS4 was the BUSINESS though.

M_Prime4449d ago

my apologies.. i honestly saw the screenshots and most of them show the levels from THPS1..

but i will probably check this out. it does look good and no stupid board. Though i will have SSX very soon to play.. hmmm

Man graphics have came a long way. Still getting better every year.

Reibooi4450d ago

It likely will considering it will be coming to XBLA and every game on their needs a trial version.

Don't bother, it's a poor remake

FalloutWanderer20772484d ago (Edited 2484d ago )

That bad huh? Not even worth $1.99 bad? I would have sworn that there was a new Tony Hawk Pro Skater game in development, I might be confusing that with this "HD remaster" however. Loved the 1st two THPS games back in the day, they were tons of fun with killer soundtracks! "If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man, You win some, lose some, it's all the same to me, The pleasure is to play, makes no difference what you say, I don't share your greed, the only card I need is The Ace Of Spades!"
I remember buying my little brother the 1st Skate game after it released, he was big into skateboarding at the time. I didn't have a lot of experience with the game but what I played was fairly realistic, with great visuals and physics for the time. Skate 3 released back in 2010 so we're way overdue for a worthy skateboarding game, a Skate 4 could be really good with today's gaming tech. advances and hardware capabilities. It will never happen but could you imagine a skateboarding game utilizing a physics engine like Euphoria that's used exclusively in Rockstar games, it would be incredible.

madforaday2484d ago

Saying you like the first two THPS and quote a song from THPS 3 lol. Anyways, I really want a true remake of THPS 4 or THUG 1.

FalloutWanderer20772483d ago

@madforaday I thought Ace of Spades was in THPS 1 or 2, didn't know it was in 3. I liked 3 as well. All 3 games had excellent soundtracks. It's been so many years since I've played them though, it's easy to get them mixed up.

DragoonsScaleLegends2480d ago

It's worse than the games before it in the series (ignoring Tony Hawk Shred) but it's still worth $2.

It's not a great sale and doesn't bode well for Battleborn being price cut already.
