This is a cool game. You can play as weird characters. Also you get to do weird goals. A few of the characters you can play as are a bull fighter and an austrailian in a go-kart. The goals usually end up with something destructive happening. There is also classic mode. The graphics are good too.

Tony hawk has a new game and it rocks! But the story is a little phony because bam is tony's friend and they just have a round the world contest. You also cant ride in a car even for missions.
I also reccomend this game to kids who did not like tony hawk pro skater because the new story mode is worth playing.

I borrowed this game from a friend because i knew if this game was anything like the first, it wouldn't take me more then three days to beat it. I was right about that, but just because this game is short doesn't mean it is bad. It still is fun to play even after you beat it.
the goal system is very different from the first because, 1. You don't talk to people to do goals you just do them and 2. The point isn't to complete all the goals you just have to get points. Another thing that is different is the characters. You only play as yourself 1/2 of the time. The other time you play as a pro skater, some werid dude on a skateboard (a different onne every level) and a guy on in a vechile.

Pros

1. Game is very addictive.
2. You can make your own apperances, parks, goals, tricks and graffti tags.
3. Great destrution scenes and hilaroius moves (you can throw tomatoes at people and you can fart during a trick but you have to beat the australia level to do that.)
4. Levels are all across the globe.
5. Vecile charcters are very fun to play as.

Cons

1. Short
2. Classic mode ( a tonk hawk pro skater typr of thing) was very boring.
3. creating your own graftii tag can be hard.
4. since you don't talk to people for the goals, some of them are really hard because no one explains them ( there is only the bare explanation but don't worry most of the time that is enough)

Ther is just one more thing that i want to tell you because it is neither a pro or con. The sound track is very strange. There are some great songs like high anxiety and thats why they call it a union, but the types of music vary from rap to frank sinatra.

This game is DA BOMB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This game is awesome. SERIOUSLY! Its got a bit of blood in it when you crash. Some of the songs have a few bad words in it. But oh well. :P
I got hooked on this game for 4 months. Then I beat the game. It has awesome graphics. You can even get off your board and spray your own tag xD

Its got killer songs. If your a Rock fan you should seriously buy this game. It has songs by Jimmy Eat World, The Explosions, and a few others.
I've blocked out the rap songs just because I don't like rap. :P Then they've got a few oldies. Like Frank Sanatra and Johnny Cash.

You can even make your own tricks! The more flips and ollies you put in there, the higher the points! But they're really hard to land. You'd have to get some major air to pull it off.

The story line is the best. You get "abducted" by 2 "masked" men while your showing off in your neighborhood. You wake up and sitting next to you are the biggest skater stars in the world! Then one of the masked men pulls out a chainsaw and almost stabs you. ROFL. But it turns out to be Bam Margera (aka The Idiot lol) Then Tony Hawk pops up and explains this whole "World Destruction Tour" You have to complete all these goals to get major points. You pass through like 6 major cities: (in Order of game)
Boston, Barcelona, Berlin, Australia, New Orleans, and Skatetopia (I don't know if Skatetopia is real or not :P)
But while your pulling off some major air in the Story Mode, you gotta destroy stuff. DUH!

Overall this is a seriously awesome game. GO BUY IT!

this game is really awesome becuz it has millions of new features that the other game doesn't have. its sweet cuz there is like a classic mode where u play like older games. the thing that sux about this game is that the story mode is really confusing. its wayyyyyyyyyyyy different than the other games.

this game is awesome, seriously. if you're not sure which sports game to get then tonyhawks is the one. the story mode is a bit different and gets confusing sometimes but besides that, best sports game ever.

Decent game, but no cheats?

The game is fun, but without a cheat available to unlock levels, this game is worthless. My son likes exploring the levels, but he is too young to "complete the goals". A level code would be great, but none exist. I have scoured the internet and all the codes are bogus. I tried to complete several "goals" and a few are extremely hard (and annoying). I cannot get out of the Boston level on Story Mode (skating that moving RV half pipe is frustrating!)and may just quit trying soon. Games like Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks makes me want to play for HOURS until I finish, but this game is fine in small 30 minute doses. The graphics are good as is most of the music. Character faces are a bit creepy (does no one blink?) but you can tell who is who for the most part. Worth 20 bucks, but not a cent more.

For Kids or Not?

Ok, Ok, we get it. Tony hawk is fun and good. The problem is, it's the same game it was 10 years ago. Sure this time there are some destruction elements and some new players and new places, but blah blah blah. Same old, same old. This is a near perfect port of the ps2. It looks great, it plays great, and if you like completing tasks, you keep this game forever. Or, you'll figure out that you wasting insane amounts of time to complete stupid mundane tasks in order to unlock another fascinating new level and many more stupid tasks. We should call it Tony Hawk's puzzle skateboarding, since after the initial coolness of the new world wares off, you spend all of your time solving the puzzle of completing the task.

Bottom Line: Is it fun? As fun as every other Tony game they release yearly. Will I keep it? Not for long. Nothing new here. Buy the game now if you love all Tony Hawk games. Is it for kids? Not to bad if your kids want to just skate around.

aint that much distruction

thug 2 is sweet. its called the world distruction tour but there isnt that much distruction. all the create modes are back including create a graphic. you make a graphic and then use it to tag walls. for what is of the distrution you get to skate in more places. what sucks in the story mode is that you cant choose what team you're gonna be on. first you go to Tony, then Bam, and back to Tony. remember in the first thug game when eric was there well hes on Bams team. instead of cars they have scooters and go karts. in this game you're not just you. you can be up to 4 people. the pro, guest, secret man, and you. comparing to the last game this game is short unless you're on sick. it dont matter what system you have just buy it.
