The nostalgia factor is here with this game. The music carries you back in time to when Tony Hawk first came out 20 years ago.
This game doesn't try to be a simulator it is just simple fun. The simpleness of the game shines through where so many games now are packed full of cut scenes and story that delays you actually playing the game, Tony Hawk is quick to launch and fun to play.
The music in this game is probably the best of any game ever. Its actual songs were written that match the genre beautifully.
