Tony Hawk Underground Review

Click here for info on THUG

Tony Hawk comes back with a new game making YOU the main character.

Graphics

There is really no improvement from the fourth installment of the series to this one. Graphics are fine and the game runs smoothly. The only real difference is that the levels have a little bit more detail and have plenty of color, which adds variation to the levels.

Sound

Lots and lots of music. Plenty of variation which helps so you don't get sick of the music. The sound effects of the board and other actions sound fine, no complaints. The best thing is that you finally talk in the game, you're no longer a mute.

GamePlay

Exactly the same as all Tony Hawk games; same button combinations. The only big difference is that you can get off your board and run around. You still have your reverts, spine transfers, everything. The missions also actually have some meaning now, which means you'll be doing all of those combo's for something, instead of just videos.

Fun Factor

The missions are fun, some harder than others. The game's new levels lets you pull some awesome tricks and multiplayer is fun too. The coolest thing about this game though is how you can download your face into the game, very very cool.

Overall Score

Tony Hawk Underground gets a 9.4 (out of 10). The game is a ton of fun, and there are a ton of missions. You can find yourself beating it a bit fast, but there are difficulty settings as soon as you start the story mode. Now out on GameCube, XBox and PlayStation 2.
