released on Aug 20, 2002

A port of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3

A simpler port of THPS3 for the previous console generation. You may not be able to live like the legend, but now you can skate like him. Skate as the legendary Tony Hawk or choose from a dream team of 12 top pro skaters, including old favorites like Lasek, Thomas, Muska, and Steamer, as well as new talent like Gilfberg, Caballero, Koston, and Mullen. Or enjoy full customization abilities with the enhanced Create-a-Skater (now including female skaters) and the Skatepark Editor. Travel from L.A. to Tokyo, Suburbia to Skater's Island performing challenges and meeting goals. New moves include the Revert, which allows you to link vert tricks, and flatland tricks such as Caspers, the Primo, and Handstand Manual. If you're good, you can even unlock hidden pro footage.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 on the N64 delivers a faithful adaptation of the legendary skateboarding experience, despite the system's limitations. While it struggles with choppier visuals and slightly less responsive controls compared to its console counterparts, the core thrill of landing sick combos, exploring diverse skateparks, and rocking out to a killer soundtrack remains intact. If you were an N64 diehard and never experienced THPS 3 on another platform, there's still plenty of fun to be had.

Holy pop-in, Batman. The PS1 version is playable, but it can't hold a candle to its PS2 big brother, which not only looks better, but also feels much better to control.

THPS 4-3-1-2-3-4 was the order it went for me. I started this game in 2004, but got my hands on THPS 1+2 before I got far into this game. The level design was great plus the addition of the revert was game changing. I had some of my highest score runs in this game, but I didn't love the levels like I did in THPS4.

Mechanically, this represents the moment the core gameplay of the THPS franchise was perfected. THPS 1's general trick structure, THPS 2's manual to link together big combos, and now with THPS 3 the introduction of the revert finally allows the addition of vert tricks into these combos without ending the chain.

This is the PS1 version though, and I'd still rank it below the other two simply because you can tell it's cut-down from the original. The maps are still good, but 1 and 2's are much better.

Pretty solid port, the tweaked levels and new goals are fun enough to make for a bit of a fresh experience. The soundtrack and videos are all included which is great. The controls are (obviously) not quite as crisp as the other versions, but still plenty playable.
