What makes the Tony Hawk series of games so appealing is the level of gameplay and replayability, especially with THPS3. In this latest installation, the parks are absolutely enormous, the graphics are topnotch, and with over a dozen real-life skaters to play with as well as the ability to create your own skaters and parks , there's literally weeks of entertainment to be had.
And entertaining it is. The control scheme is deceptively simple, with a button for grinds, a button for kick flips, etc. However, there are hundreds of different moves to make, and with the introduction of the revert in all versions of THPS3, you can virtually chain tricks together for the entire two minutes of a level. Since chaining brings more points over a million per trick if you're good , and the high scores are tracked, there's always one more record to beat. Each level also contains several goals, ranging from getting a certain amount of points to collecting videotapes, unlocking new boards, stat increases, etc.
There's so much offered on each level with different placements of collectibles for each skater that it's easy to spend a day or even a week just having fun on the level of your choice. It's that good. New to THPS3 is the ability to play online, as well as an expanded create-a-park level editor, and an even more in-depth create-a-skater mode, including female models.
The park editor is fairly straightforward and lets you create the park of your dreams in a minimal amount of time.
These parks can include named gaps in most versions , starting points, and goals -- essentially everything found with the included levels. The skaters you create can gain stats and rise up the ranks to become another Tony Hawk if you work at it hard enough. It's all so well done that it's actually fun to just tweak little aspects of the game to your taste. First and foremost, the graphics on the PC version are by far the best.

Although points are important in career mode, they're just one part of the whole, as this mode requires you to complete special tasks to unlock each new area.
In each stage, there are three different levels of points you'll need to score and each task is unique to the stage itself. You'll find things like 'impress 5 skaters,'? Some of the later stages require accumulating a certain number of points or placing in the top three of a given number of levels, but they're all pretty self-explanatory.
On top of that, there are quite a few little secret items to unlock, mostly in the form of new skaters, like Darth Maul and Wolverine. Each stage has a secret area or two, which you'll unlock as you complete the goals in each stage. Start by freeing all of the valves in the Foundry level, the first part of the game, and you'll get access to the Reactor Core. You'll also need to pay attention to your skater as you play.
You'll find a series of stat points as you play, shaped like little Tony Hawk logos. As you gather these points, you can later use them to modify your character, improving his ability to trick, spin, speed, or manual his way to victory. With the wide variety of skaters to choose from, each with a different focus on their abilities, you've got an excellent choice for your starting point. Rack up enough stunt points, and you may even be able to max out the abilities of the skater you're using.
Lastly, there's also a fully furnished park editor built into Tony Hawk 3. I didn't get to play around with it much, but what I did see, I liked.
While you can't get levels as absurd and strange as the normal in-game areas, you can construct many of the traditional skate park styles that aren't available in the career mode. The park editor lets you construct a fairly large stage large for Tony Hawk 3 that is , using a literal crapload of scenery and skatable objects. I live not too far from a large skatepark myself, and I was able to model it pretty well in the park editor. It isn't a large park, nor is it complex, but the choice of grinding spots, ramps, and pipes is very good.
There are many different multiplayer modes you can use. Two players can play split screen on a single PS2, or you can play over the internet or LAN with up to four players. The 'King of the Hill'?
You can also do a free skate mode with multiplayer, but that's a given. I enjoyed both the levels and the characters in Tony Hawk 3.
Each seemed to have a goodly amount of detail and care put into them, with semi-realistic texturing, and usually complex environments in which to show off your skateboarding skills. The skaters were probably the most impressive thing -- not only can you pick from several different real-world riders, but there's tons of hidden characters including Darth Maul and the Neversoft Eyeball man from the credits , and even a custom skater tool that lets you create a unique skater. That last one is significant just from the amount of stuff you can change about your character.
From weight to skin color, and even clothing and tattoos, you could literally make hundreds of different characters.
Most all of the levels were attractive and pleasing to the eye, featuring plenty of good art material, and a lot of background 'filler' like other skaters and pedestrians. The only thing I was really disappointed by was the size of each arena, as far too many of them seemed small and cramped.
In particular was the Canada stage, as it really left me feeling like it was only half a level. On the other hand, Neversoft made good use of the DVD-ROM qualities of the PS2, and included a lot of short little videos, showcasing the talents of many of the skaters featured in the game.
They also populated the game with a lot of the test footage, showing you exactly how painful a nasty little crash can be, or how much skating was needed to generate good motion effects for the game. With some of the best skating music I've heard in a long while, the soundtrack was better than most any other game I've got. I may be a sucker for good pseudo-punk music, but such is life. The sound effects are pretty well done, as you'll get a good sampling of different textures as you run across them, from concrete to gravel and in some cases wood.
The game's only weakness is the relatively poor quality of organic sounds. A fun title, Tony Hawk 3 isn't as well implemented as I'd have liked. Enjoyable, for certain, but lacking that unidentifiable combination of speed and ease of movement that makes games like this great, I can't say that Tony Hawk was a truly excellent title. Even after I'd played for a long while, I still found it far too easy to wipe out by landing sideways, or miss a critical rail by mere inches.
Still, even with that in mind, Tony Hawk builds a strong game on solid gameplay, and has enough in the way of graphical improvement to make it a worthy successor to the Tony Hawk title. Last November, along with thousands of others, I purchased the GameCube, buying into Nintendo's promise of next-generation, video-game bliss. Considering the company's less-than-stellar track record with the N64, I knew it was a bit of a risk. Besides the expected scarcity of launch titles, Nintendo's policy of quality over quantity meant that additional titles would probably trickle onto store shelves at a snail's pace.
As of the writing of this review, it's been almost two months since the GameCube's release, and comparatively speaking with the Xbox, that is , there is indeed a lack of software. And as far as I'm concerned, Nintendo can take their policy and Well, for all of us GameCube owners, Nintendo might have heard our cries after all. With the release of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 , there's no question we're getting quality. The latest in the long-running series is available for no less than six different platforms.
The GameCube version skates home with 13 internationally known pros, including the legendary Tony Hawk. Other features include eight massive interactive levels, an improved Skate Park Editor, a Create-a-Skater now including female skaters , a kickin' sound track, and hidden goodies all over the place. But since the GameCube is a new platform for the successful franchise, questions of game play and control loom large.
So, how does this version stack up? Well, grab yer skateboard, and let's ollie on over to the rest of the review, shall we? If there's one consistency about the Tony Hawk franchise that puts most other games to shame, it's the replay value that the game has to offer. Trust me when I tell ya, this version keeps that string going, and then some.
There's so much to do in this game, I'll give you a quick word of warning'don't play this game unless you're willing to put the rest of your life on hold for a while!
