Tony Hawk's Underground

Tony Hawk's Underground is a skateboarding game developed by Neversoft and released in 2003 for the PlayStation 2, Xbox and Nintendo GameCube. A PC port developed by Beenox came out in 2005, but only saw release in Australia and New Zealand.

The game's story follows the player's custom skater and his/her best friend Eric Sparrow as the two aim to become well-known professionals, with their differing ambitions eventually driving them apart.

Why it Rocks

 * 1) Amazing and fluent controls.
 * 2) Tons of in-game content.
 * 3) Highly improved customization of your custom skaters and parks.
 * 4) You can create your own special tricks using the 'Create-A-Trick' feature.
 * 5) You now have the ability to get off of your skateboard and explore on foot.
 * 6) An original story that focuses on your custom skater.
 * 7) You can customize your interface and HUD themes.
 * 8) Great locations such as Hawaii, Tampa and Slam City Jam.
 * 9) Incredible soundtrack.
 * 10) You could download created stuff via online play in the PS2 version.
 * 11) The game introduced diagonal double tap grinds.
 * 12) The PS2 verison has online play where you can share your created content with others and do multiplayer with up to eight players.

The Only Bad Quality

 * 1) Eric Sparrow, the main antagonist, is widely seen as one of the most annoying villains in videogame history. Thankfully, the Neversoft logo boot-up sequence "spoils his comeuppance" with him getting eaten alive by a T.H.U.D., a monster that is similar to the 1984 movie C.H.U.D.
