This game is the worst t hawk game ever. I cant believe the messed this one up so bad. It is an almost exact copy of tony hawk 2 from playstation only there are tons of glitches, unbearable load times, and they have tony hawk 3 for ps2 wich is 20 times better. do not buy this game or the x box neither one is worth their price tags.

Don't buy tony hawk 2x

The only way I ever suggest you to buy this game is if you've never played the one on Dreamcast, N64, or the Playstation. Sure, it's probably the most complete version of the game, but it's a sleeper hit in my opinion. If Tony Hawk 3 weren't coming out for the system, I'd suggest you get it, but since it is, I suggest you rent before a purchase.

This is a good game

But Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 will come out on PS 2 before this game, you really want to buy a better virsion of 2 when 3 is already out? and 3 is much better than this one. so if you can go get 3 not this one you can also find it on amazon.com.

Do we really need another Tony Hawk 2 ?

Xbox may have great titles like Amped: Freestyle Snowboarding, Blood Wake, Dead or Alive 3 (my favorite), Genma Onimusha, and Halo, but one question...do we really need another Tony Hawk 2 ? I mean, come on now, this game is about 3 years old. I know what you guys are thinking..."why couldn't Craig give this a better rating ?". Why ? Because this is just an upgraded version of the same skating game that released 3 years ago. But let me give the lowdown on the game. The graphics are improved ! There are a hell of a lot of changes made for the Xbox version and the skaters look great, especially when they do shadowlike movements when their "Special meter" turns yellow, and the stages are bigger than ever. There are some new ones and old ones from Tony Hawk 1, but nothing really special. Most of the characters look almost the same. The only slight change is the detail and the framerate. The sound is still the same. The same grinding sounds from rails and cement. And especially, the same old soundtrack ! I just got tired of it now ! The only additional song is the one from the new skatepark on England. It sounds like an instrumental of DDR's "Paranoia". But once again...nothing special. The gameplay is still the same. The controls are still the same way it was from the PlayStation, N64, and Dreamcast versions. The only new element, is the multiplayer, where players can go at it with four controllers ! Wow...was that supposed to amaze me ? Anyway, this game is only for the people who never tried the Tony Hawk series or people who never even bothered to play the Tony Hawk series. But don't get me wrong. It's not like I have anything against THPS2X. I like how the game is done, but I'm just saying, I already played it on the Dreamcast and PlayStation. There is really no need to port it over to a powerful machine like Xbox (I still like Gamecube, Dreamcast, and PlayStation 2 better). If you never tried out the game, now's your chance ! Go ahead and get this game if you own Xbox. But if you already played it, just forget about it, and keep putting your focuses on the now and current Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3, if you have a Gamecube, PS2, or Game Boy Advance. All in all an average game for the Xbox, but this game is 3 years old, and it's really pointless if an old game is played on one of the latest systems out there. Maybe Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2X shouldn't have been made in the first place.

HERE'S A THOUGHT...TONY HAWK'S PRO SKATER 3 IS ALREADY OUT ON THE XBOX, SO GO GET THAT ONE INSTEAD ! IT LOOKS BETTER AND MOST OF ALL, IT PLAYS BETTER. THE XBOX VERSION HAS ONE ADDITIONAL SKATER AND ONE ADDITIONAL STAGE. TONY HAWK'S PRO SKATER 2X IS ONLY FOR THE PEOPLE WHO NEVER PLAYED THE EARLIER VERSIONS, SO STAY AWAY, IF YOU'RE ALREADY FAMILIAR WITH IT !

was good at first

when you first get this game it will seem awesome but as you play it more and more it will become tiring when you cannot open the next level and have no idea how you accomplish the goals it asks. Tony Hawk 4 is much better!

Dont buy this if you played THPS on other systems.

Graphics are great, but the game play stinks. I had THPS 1 & 2 on Dreamcast, and the games rocked!!! I buy an X-box thinking it will be better, but it definately was not. Somebody thought changing the way the controller functioned would be a great idea.....well, they were wrong. It totally ruined the game. And you can't change the button configuration either. If you liked THPS on other systems, chances are you'll hate it on X-box.

Wake me when it get s good ! ......ZzzzzzzZzzZzzZ

HUH ?
What ?
Who ?

Ok maybe it is because I am not a skater, maybe it is because I am older then most players, or maybe it is because the game get boring real fast.

RENT

Before you buy, that is all I am going to say, RENT IT FIRST, really rent this first and you will see.

THPS 2X

Tony Hawk 2X is exactly what you expect -- an amazing translation of Tony Hawk1 and 2 with extra touches such as more detailed characters, and crisper textures and details on the environments. Unfortunately, because it's exactly what you expect, this isn't a game that can be recommended to everyone. If you haven't played Tony Hawk 1 or 2 on the other systems, AND you've just picked up an Xbox, then this is definitely worth your purchase. If you've already played the games on the other systems, AND don't own a GameCube or PS2 with which to play Tony Hawk 3, then this might be a game to consider for you launch package. But if you answered no to any of the above, this is probably not worth your money, unless you're a die-hard Tony Hawk completist that must own every version ever made. Despite the new additions, this just can't compete with the gameplay in NeverSoft's latest effort, no matter how polished.
