Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 redefined an already great game. Its addition of stellar new features (like Create-A-Park), and great game-play tweaks (the manual maneuver will be copied for years to come) made it the best installment in a killer series of games. Anyone who has ever skated the Philadelphia level will agree -- this game is a masterpiece of level design. Hell, it's a masterpiece all around. There isn't a bad park or dull moment, just pure gaming nirvana!

moldou o meu estilo musical e me apresentou o meu esporte favorito, com certeza um dos jogos mais importantes da minha vida
I tried it cause i've heard it get props since 2013. Wasn't for me. Cool soundtrack though. Controls were 2 difficult.
Skateboarding is kinda silly when you think about it but then everything is silly like why am I even writing this.
THPS is one of my favorite series of all-time, and while 2 felt great when it released, in retrospect they were still ironing out some of the kinks. This doesn't feel nearly as good to play as the PS2 games or the remaster.
You quite literally cannot go wrong with this game.
My first Tony Hawks game and to this day one of my favorite games in the series, which I still pick up from time to time. I have to admit that as a nerdy young boy, I had very little contact with the skater scene. Like for so many fellow gamer kids from that era, the skater subculture was just a bit too cool for me back then. So it was all the more surprising to me how much I enjoyed not only the game itself, but also the whole skater vibe around it. I had an incredibly good time playing Tony Hawks. I have to emphasize that I played exclusively with a mouse and keyboard back then...how I managed to achieve anything in that game without a gamepad is beyond me today.
Overall, I'd just like to say that Tony Hawks 2 will always have a special place in my heart. Yes, there were later installments in the series that I enjoyed more, but this is where my love for these games began.
