All of you who doubt the greatness of THPS3 must have your heads stuck up your butss |
| Geoff from Virginia says (22/Jan/2002): |
I played Tony Hawk. I played Tony Hawk 2. And now I am playing Tony Hawk 3, the greatest of the bunch. What really bugs me about some of the post is that the can't land the tricks, or can't land 360's. I could land fricken 900's before the end my first day with the game. And I wasn't very good at the first 2 games either, so don't think I'm some kinda wizard at this game. But it's not hard. In fact I think the grind meter helps a WHOLE lot. I used to fall and fall again on the old ones because I couldn't judge how close I was to falling. But now I can look at the mter and adjust. And the whole revert thing was a huge add-on. It helps out tricks tremendously because you can go pull a 720 Boneless+melon and get 25,000, revert-manual, go and grind for a while and combine a lotta grinds and flip tricks and get like 250,000. And the levels are great. Awesome graphics, some secret areas, a lotta detail made them very good. But I do wish they had more real parks because they need a venice beach on here. But besides that, this game is perfect. The people griping about a lack of new tricks must not have played the game because there are a bunch of new ones, like the special manuals. Anyway, go buy this game, especially if you have a PS2, like me.

Heck YAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| NICK JABLONSKI from MASSECHUSETS,USA says (20/Jan/2002): |
I love this game!!!! I've beaten it 4 times. After a while it got boring, then I decided to coplete all the goals to get secret charecters. I also heard of this cheat to get all the secret skaters, I HAVENT tried it yet but you type in FREAKSHOW.
P.S. THIS ONLY WORKS FOR GAME CUBE!

Been there, Done that! |
| Jed browning from Maricopa A,Z says (20/Jan/2002): |
Don't get me wrong the game is cool, but 4 ps1 its the same as 1 and 2. I would rather have it on ps2 because it has more detail put into to it. For example the blood when someone falls, and all u have to do when u put in cheats is go to options and type it in. For ps1 u have to beat the game with a certain person, thats what sucks!
|
Almost perfect |
| Mark from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada says (16/Jan/2002): |
The game was outstanding, except for the muchly exaggerated special tricks. I loved the new freestyle moves, and most of the new levels were good as well. The best part about THPS3 is the video you get for getting all gold medals with Rodney Mullen, it is amazing!!!!!!!!!

I LOVE IT! |
| Timmy from Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin, USA says (15/Jan/2002): |
I LOVE the game it is the only one I ever play. The only thing I don't like is the limits on building your own park! I think that you should be able to put in full pipes, and more than 4 high. I really like the way the game is set up. I like that you can do a free skate because other games you can't. But I really liked that you could make your own skater too. The other thing I don't like is that in the free skate you have to unlock all of the parks I think that is pretty dumb. But Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 is one if not my favorite game for Playstation ever made. It is fun and isn't always the same like if you play the free skate once then again its fun all over again, because you learn new tricks and learn to do new things. It really is a fun game and I like the graphics on it. It surprised me that I was playing Playstation when I first turned on the game because the graphics are just phenominal. I really love all the parks and all the different things you can make, I also like the different types of skaters that you can make. I like the great variety of things to do on the game. So in other words if I could pick one game out of the 111 games that I have for Playstation. The game I would pick would definately be Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3. It is the BEST game I have ever played! I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!

Man you guys can't do anything right |
| UZA Zero from Dededo, Guam, USA says (14/Jan/2002): |
Hey I played this game and it's so addictive. I 'mastered' it. the levels may be unreal but hey, they're still creative, and comfortable. If you can't a better park, just make a dump instead, and grind on the broken alluminum ledges! The game is for fun, not for inconvenience. You guys give it a bad opinion, eh? We'll give your stupid net games a negative infinite! THPS 3 is the best of all three games!I agree with all these THPS 3 pros! thye game is much more fun, and the levels may be weird but very nice and creative. So Neversoft deserves luxurious comment for them working hard and making such an entertaining game.

Overall Review. |
| Chris from Northampton England says (14/Jan/2002): |
Exactly the same as THPS2! Although I was hoping to be able to build fullpipes and edit the hight of the ramps and have the limit of risers to be more that 4 on top of each other I still love this game. Probably because I like the gameplay and I am naturaly good at playing it. ( If you want proof I made a video on the downhill level which looked actually better than the demo versions at the main menu! ) The levels are much better and bigger than THPS and THPS 2. I am looking forward to get a PS2 so I can play the PS2 version.

Just as good as THPS1 & 2 |
| Jan from Copenhagen, Denmark says (14/Jan/2002): |
When I first played Thps 3 I did not like it, the reason for that is that there isn't much new in this game, ok the graphic is a bit better but no new features.
After a while playing the game I just loved it, the lack of new features doesn't matter as long as you get some amazing new levels. After playng THPS 3 for a couple of weeks now, it is very easy to beat with any skater. But still there is hours and hours of fun in this game. And then I just love the 2- player function, it's realy great to beat one of your freinds in the two- player game HORSE.
So all in all a realy great game, the best I've been playing for a while.
So thumbs up for this game, if you dont have it go and get it.
I have been playing THPS 3 for playstation 2 as well, and even though I dont have a PS2 I will buy this game just for the day I'm going to buy a plasystation 2.
Please dont mind the spelling, I'm not from an english speaking country.

tony hawk is back but not any better than in thps2 |
| Al Cohalic from Chicago IL says (11/Jan/2002): |
I think that It is a great game but the studio didn't put all they could into it. I have seen the major differinces between thps3 for ps2 than in ps1 and I think that they spent too much of their time on that version then on this. It dosent have any secret areas that open up like in the ps2 version or half as good of graphics. The Grafic part is understandable but the hidden areas are not. They even had them in thps2 like the gym in the school. i think it is total bull**** that they could not of tryed just a little bit harder.and if you know how to nosegrind the tree in canada please email me.

Who better than tony? |
| Greg from New-Brunswick , Canada says (10/Jan/2002): |
i have been playing this game for about 3 weeks now and i think that this is the best playstation game I have ever played.I have only 1 thing I haven't been able to do and that is - Nosegrind over the tree - in the Canada level if any one knows how to do it please send me an e-mail.i think the graphics,sound and gameplay are very good.the gameplay is very good because the tricks are very easy to do .As far for the music goes i wonder were do they take this sh**t. there are only like 2 good songs.for the people who says that this game needs cheats ,this game is too good to go mess it up with cheats.cheats make this game way too easy.and for the people who say that this game is too hard i think you need a little practice.
graphics:10/10
sound:10/10
music:8/10
gameplay:10/10
lifespan:9/10

I Give it 2 Thumbs Up!!! Congratulations guys!!! |
| Joshua P from La Union, Philippines says (5/Jan/2002): |
The thing is,, there's is really nothing to hate about this game... I remember the previous versions were kinda a little to the side. But this Game was thru da roof. There were fewer tricks to do, but hey... who needs all those tricks anyways,,, You'll never use at least 3 tricks throughout the game anyways. Besides,,, Goals and stats were always keeping us busy to do. I remember when we couldn't even find the "noselide the tree" gig.. We spent hours and hours finding it. And another thing, after finishing a persons videos and junk,, it gave us more things to do like that GAP CHECKLIST.. Now that's awesome!!! All in all,, you'll never get bored w/ this game, every time that you beat it, there's always something that'll surprise you and keep you busy for at least a few months or so. AWESOME GAME UP IN DIS!!!!

It could have been better |
| Zach from NY, USA says (5/Jan/2002): |
What I didn't like about it is the fact that there aren't any cars or people in the psone version. Also, they could have made better levels, the best one I think was skater island. One other thing I disliked is that the create a skater is still the same basicly. I also think they could have made the park editor better by giving you more options and ramps.However, the graphics and sound are awesome! I think THPS3 is the best out of all of them because the goals were more challenging. THPS3 is the best!!!

Rodney Mullen Rules |
| Dork & a half from Concord, North Carolina, USA says (2/Jan/2002): |
Videos need to better(well, except Rodney of course).Needs cooler boards. Levels were fun, But overall not much different than the first two. Worth all the money I didn't spend on it. Glad I got it.
|
PLEASE MORE AND BETTER STREET LEVELS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| Mac from G'ville, AL USA says (2/Jan/2002): |
I really like this game, but it had barely any good technical things, THPS2 has better and more realistic street cources. The new THPS has more park and less street, the Los Angeles level sucks on THPS3, everything on their was fake. On THPS2, there were more real skate spots, and better levels. THPS1 comes in w/ both street and park levels, except all the levels were made up places, except for burnside. THPS2 lost the ranking of park levels but gained some of the best and most realistic cources ever, such as Venise Beach, Philli', and more. THPS3 lost the taste in realistic street levels, but made a big boom w/ the park cources, most of them were fake though. I think that THPS3 is still the best of the ones yet for parks, but THPS2 is the all around best for street cources. I really was hoping to have !!!!LOVE PARK!!!! on THPS3, but it wasn't. I wish also, that they had put another school on THPS3. Also, I like THPS3 more than the others due to the the fact that the THPS3 game engine is a whole lot better. One more thing, please check out my sit www.alabamaskateboardng. PEACE!!!!

Entertaining |
| Sean from Sacramento says (30/Dec/2001): |
The game is fun and the new tricks are an added plus but the career mode is too easy. You can beat a pro's career in about 2 hours. The soundtrack even though it has good bands doesn't live uo to the THPS 2 soundtrack. Other than that the game is fun and is a must buy if you loved THPS 2.

This is for the guy who thinks burnquist is in the game |
| Joe from Baltimore, MD, USA says (29/Dec/2001): |
Bob burnquist is NOT in the game, Bam Margera is from a TV show called Jackass (hence the jackass flip trick in the game), In fact he is even called the "skating jackass" in the game. It amazes me how people post things in discussion boards that have no idea what they are talking about, and as for you who knows so much about skating, you should know that it is not a nickname for Burnquist, Im not even really that much of a skating fan, just a fan of Tony Hawk Pro Skater, but I know that they are not the same person. As for the game, it is incredible, it may not have as many levels as most of us would have liked, but it is completely customizable, has tons of new tricks (that you can set for any skater), the music is great and it is a lot of fun to play. I have the PS2 version, but ive seen the psone version and i liked it just as much, Im not sure how long this game is gonna last, but i know in tony hawk 1, im still able to find enjoyment out of it so im sure this game is gonna go a long way. These games keep on getting better. I give it a 9 out of 10 (the PS2 version gets a 10)

Good but not the best Tony Hawk Pro skater game. |
| Sam Wiborg from Minnesota,USA says (29/Dec/2001): |
I like the game but I think Tony Hawk 2 is the best.I bought the game and was exited but when I played it I was a little diappointed cause the Level goals are very hard to do.
|
The same old THPS. |
| ßè®zé®Kå from Melbourne, Australia says (27/Dec/2001): |
THPS1 waz by far the best game of it's time, and i spent countless hours playing until i past it on every character. Then THPS2 came out and i was impressed by the increase in graphics and the outstanding quality, and addictiveness of the game, but now THPS3 seems like "been there, done that." With absolutely no difference in graphics, if anything i think they're worse, and boring levels, with no really big air gaps, or bowl to bowl transfers, it's a shame to see a game with such a good repuation drop in quality. In addition what ever happened to the speed of THPS1 that waz one of the quickest game's i'd ever played. My verdict is it could be better.

Overall great game |
| Josh from Pa. says (27/Dec/2001): |
Overall I think tony hawk 3 is a great game and there are a few downfalls. The graphics are good and the challenges are a little harder than the first 2. The create a park, is pretty much exactly the same as tony hawk 2! I would be alot better if they would have changed it a little. And there are some new tricks.
