You gotta admit though, that was a really stellar sequel if you ever played the first one. The content, extras, and general feel of the game improved nicely. Unfortunately, the series went really down-hill (imo) at around 4-5.

You're remembering it wrong. Downhill came much later than that.



Where is Ocarina of Time???



@noname2200

Good god man. That blew my face right off.

Nintendomination. The days of Tony Hawk being good.... Pro Skater 2 is definitely a classic.

I remember all my friends having that game, everyone played it all day!



Odd. Future. Wolf. Gang. Kill. Em. All. OFWGKTA Don't give a fuck!

Fuck Steve Harvey. FREE EARL!

Final Fantasy Versus XIII will be the GREATEST game EVER made!!!

I'd take a bullet for Square-Enix! 

 

I remember getting Pro Skater 2 for Christmas.....it had Spider-Man in it!!!! No ICO or Shadow of the Colossus? And San Andreas is still the best GTA to me.



I am the Playstation Avenger.

   

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 is the best Tony Hawk game in the series and certainly in my Top 10 of all time.
So yeah it certainly deserves a spot on top of the list.

lmao.  Good one

Ever played TH Project 8 ?

IMO very close to the first TH games and incredibly good.



This is my favourite part of it:

Now, to view things from a commercial perspective we turn to the notoriously unreliable but undeniably helpful VGChartz
