THE GOOD: New use anyone task idea. means that you don't need to do every challenge 14 times. Special Objectives for each person so you need to use all people at least a bit. Huge Levels and Huge amount of objectives.
THPS3 sucked compared to THPS2 and now THPS4 has come back with good levels, 3 only had skaters paradise that was good.
New talk to people for objectives idea and whole game in a cool free skate. Old school AC/DC rock.
THE BAD: Well, some music sucks, so you can turn it off, yay.
I guess some people would like to do 80 objectives 12 times with a different person.
SUMMARY: Graphics: 7/10 This was a pretty early PS2 game and I didn't get it for a long time after it came out so i may be a little harsh, but non-the-less the graphics aren't the best. Only average. PHYSICS: 10/10 Very important in a freestyle sport game. And Tony hawk has had the perfect physics from the start. Game enjoyable...
THE GOOD: ~Customisable characters ~Multiplayer ~Addictive ~Customisable tracks
THE BAD: ~The music (most) ~Not much levels ~Same type of game to last ones though
SUMMARY: Here is another (4th one, now that's a lot) just shows how much people loved the last ones on the PS2. I have never been a fan of the Tony Hawk's pro skater games but when I found out that you could customise your own park I so rented this game out, it turned out ok.
The customisable characters are really fun, becaue you can make so many different looking characters, this adds a lot to the replay value. Well you can have different hats, glasses, shirts, shorts, tattoos boards, etc. While you make your character you can customise his or her stats, to make them what you want them to be like.
The customisable tracks got my attention as you can of course create your own parks. There are mnay different half pipes, rails, pools etc for you to choose...
THE GOOD: Classic THPS Fun Huge Levels with lots to do Awesome 2-Player Mode Better Game Style Pro Challenges
THE BAD: The sheer number of challenges can wear you down after a while.
SUMMARY: I have owned every THPS game that has been published, an THPS4 is no doubt the best version yet. I can only imagine what the future of THPS will be......
THE GOOD: The atmosphere is nice, especially levels like College, it's bright and cheerful, which makes THPS4 a pleasure to skate through.
There are many tricks on show, which will delight many who have the intrest.
Of course, all of the best 14 skaters in the world are there, hence the title 'Pro Skater'. Despite that, I found myself careeing through my own Created-Skater, which is also a Good Feature. And, there are 3 hidden skaters you must earn with money, and then buy, with money.
THE BAD: The levels aren't limited, but there could have been more, in my opinion.
And, there are a few glithes, but they are more of a 'Go out and find it', rather than a 'What the hell just happened?'
SUMMARY: Bah, this is such a short review, basicially I figured if you like skating, then you should already have this. If you want more detail, PM me.
All in all, this as everything a non-skater and skater and...
THE GOOD: This game is definatley the best sports game i have ever played.The pretty cool graphics and stunts is some of the Hawk's best.The tricks,which there is more than in the previous games are better and wilder. Get this game if you're a Hawk fan.
THE BAD: The game is fun but it is extremely difficult in some parts.Landing the tricks can be a challenge too. The objectives are somewhat frustrating then the previous games.
SUMMARY: The game is definatley one of the coolest if not one of the best sport games out there. The cool soundtrack is also new,as well as the levels and tricks. The 4th game in the series is not too bad.The best one so far,besides 2 that is.the controls and setup is the same and is on more systems then the original ones.(PS2,PS1,PSX,GCN,XBOX,PC.) The games wipeouts are as well different.He'll land on his head,his knees,his back,etc... The sound is perfect.Birds chirping,people talking.
THE GOOD: Bigger levels, goals easier to achieve[one at a time without the run ending], Bigger Trick list, and nice graphics.
THE BAD: Not much for a skating game.
SUMMARY: Great skating game, lots of skaters to choose from, and the new and improved 'goal system'. Nice voice overs, and an awesome variety of goals too choose from. The graphics in the game are great, and the levels are great.
I would recommend this game to anyone that likes skating, or skating games to check it out, it is alot of fun[a lot better than THPS1 I've been playing for so long...].
THE GOOD: - Bigger levels - Mini-games - No Time Limit for each level - Lots of new tricks - You can buy cheats - Talk to people to get goals - Better Graphics - Flatground tricks - You can grab on the back of cars
THE BAD: - Gets boring after you beat it - The build a skate park could have been better
SUMMARY: THPS4 is the best skating game out there right now and its a fun game to beat it and to play the game against your friends. Big variety of tricks and combos. Lots of easy and cool goals in the game. You can also buy clothes for your skater and make him look better. There are mini games in the game which are also fun to play. The music is better than the last THPS game and the movies are better also. The build a park options could have been better. Also the game gets kind of borring onvce you beat it. The best part is when you get 100%.
Visuals: good visuals although they aren't the best that PS2 can do. They aren't bad either though, so you can't complain. 6/10
Audio: some great tracks by some well known grunger bands. Even though TH4 music isn't as good as number 3, the music is still good. 8/10
Gameplay: The gameplay is basically just skateboarding, collecting things like secret tapes and money, doing tricks, trying to break a target trick point score or doing missions like grinding on 3 cars etc. 8/10
Longevity: There is loads of stuff to do and loads of unlockable skaters (you nedd to cheat though) with loads of levels and some great multiplayer modes. it will take ages to complete. 8/10
THE GOOD: •Free roaming levels •Purifing skateboard tricks •Nice boards •Geoff Rowley the best skateboarder in the world, haha! •Designing peoples clothes (geoff looks cool now!) •Editing Tricks (geoff, do that 900, haha tony, you got told!!) •Many great Pro Skaters(again geoff) •All out fun and awesome new career challenges •Better Career mode •Free roaming Career mode
THE BAD: •uh... NOTHING!
SUMMARY: Skateboarding is the bomb, i cant find anything else to do then do 540 flip off things or ollie up the highest thing i can find, so, when your sick, or if its raining, or if yout just not in that skateboarding mood, but you really are... Dont grab a board, grab a virtual board! Well, unless..... you like to skateboard outside more, i just learn a trick from the game, and try it out in real life!
