Tony Hawk's pro skater 2 is a very impressive port for the Game Boy Advance. Most games that use 3D on the GBA tend to be very choppy and slow, however this game will always run flawlessly. I have never been terribly interested in skateboarding video games and have never played any of the console Tony Hawk games, so I can't compare this game to its console counterparts, but i can say on its own I found it decently entertaining in short bouts which is perfect for the GBA. My one complaint is that the game features a free mode as well as a career mode, but i find there is no point in ever touching the career mode as it's just the free mode with a time limit and some objectives scattered about, but it is nice to have the option and it gives the game a little variety. For knowing very little about skateboarding, i think this game is pretty good.
