The concept of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater is to simply make the player grow into becoming a professional at the game's complex inner-workings, making it for a truly remarkable sports title. The focused gameplay of skate tricks, combos, simple challenges, crushing but rewarding difficulty, and environment interaction make the game feel almost fully intact and can leave it being really addicting to feel the power of skating. The only drawback are that the controls can mostly be unresponsive and sometimes ruin the momentum of gameplay. The arena-designed levels of progression within the Career Campaign are excellent, taking everyday settings and making it epic skating sessions that are fully interactive, detailed, and memorable. The other modes of free skate, multiplayer, and single sessions are great for replay value. The wide selection of decks and avatars off professional skateboarders stand out with unique tricks and combos and really add variety. The sound design is great in emulating skateboards and feeling realistic, but the licensed music utilized in the game truly immerse the player and are iconic as all.
