@@v0idzero_20 normally I’d be surprised at statements like this but… this is an exception. Hey, while we’re talking about it, why is the hit box on it so weird? (I’ve had way too many perfect speedruns ruined by the hit box)
@@itzmeavery9854 I’m not sure. Most of the time I just assumed my stats were too low until after grabbing the stat points and I got higher I did it in a few tries. I also never really considered the thought of speedrunning the game. I just finished thps2 yesterday and am at 93% on the first one.
Fucking HATE that one. I’ve got two tips for anyone struggling: 1 - Stand in front of it and line up, DONT go for big air by using the quarter pipe across from it. 2 - Jump early. It is tricky because there is a concrete lip attached to the end of the ramp. So you need to jump early to get the proper pop off of the ramp; otherwise it’s like jumping off of flat ground.
I remember playing THPS 3 on my PS2 back then, and having the exact feeling when discovering secret areas there. Playing this one last year (and today recently) still manages to bring back that feeling of immersion and wonder. Truly one of best experiences.
The area in School II can be done by simply completing the gap before the bell stops ringing. You don’t have to wait for it to ring to start the grind.
Venice Beach wasn't a secret area man, that was just jumping over a wall lol. If you dont have to activate anything THPS doesn't consider it a true "secret area".
@@wspencerwatkins unlocks the subway area, you can then go up there and follow the train track to the secret area, it's closed until you complete the subway card goal
My brother and I discovered the gymnasium in school and the one in marseille while playing the ps1 version during quarantine...20 f*cking years later !
same...although in my case it's also trying to adjust to the Xbox One analog stick after years or using a PS1/2/3 Dualshock d-pad....but man do I keep bailing on combos I used to nail easy back in the day.
The alien you kick into outter space at the end can also be found in Marseilles in the hidden area. Probably unlockes a charakter if you find them all.
Didn't know about marseiie thats a cool one. Arguably getting on the school roof to get the token about the secret area could be considered a "secret" its quite hard to get on there.
I wouldnt call the venice beach a secret area you have to do a goal and a gap for another in that area and there is a easier way to get to it than the in this vid
You have one outside the gym, one at the Huge Transfer (near Gonz Rail) and one near the Pole 2 Brix gap (also near Gonz Rail). There's one near spawn and if I remember correctly, one around the stage
Is there some trick about getting in that volcano that I don’t know? Can’t get in there for the life of me. I jump up where that red face is spray painted, but I can’t even make it close to getting into the volcano. Like fucking 15-20 feet short every time. All my characters have maxed out stats. Do vert guys jump better than street guys even if all the stats are maxed out? 🤷🏻♂️
Yo I remember a spot where I was riding down some downhill long ass NYC style ghetto with rails against the building and ramps on the way down and stuff. It was either some crazy Easter egg or I was just dreaming
I've seen some comments like this, I guess it's a difficult game for newcomers. I think it just takes time and practice, you'll get better. You also need to be pretty quick with the buttons to be a good player in these kind of games. For those of us that played these games as kids/teens, we have years of playing experience already. Just keep playing!
@@tbizzle00 thanks ^^ I've played the first two games as a kid But fell out with this game I've been playing atv OFFROAD FURY and mx vs atv so yea But I'll get it
@@michaelbowin4738 right on, yeah just keep playing. I just watched a few pro tips videos here on YT and learned a lot of little tricks that helped me, and I thought I was already pretty good. Always more ways to get better!!
people overcomplicate that one so hard. you just go and grind the rail as soon as the level starts. like immediately. head straight for it and go grind it ASAP. all you have to do is grind the rail before the timer hits a certain number, its not as complex as these dudes make it seem.
Hey x LunarGaming, it's Phil here from GAMINGbible, we'd love to feature this video on our GAMINGbible social channels with a credit linking back to yourself! Please let us know if this would be something you'd be interested in! Thanks!
You have to wait for the bell to sound off. When it starts you need to start the rail, if it ends exactly when you get to the end of the rail, the screen will shake and the doors open
It wasnt there for me either. For me it was on an awning after you jump over the library as he shows here. Jump over where the secret tape was, then jump over that roof too. Itll be on the left on an awning.
loco81cris all good man. I thought so too, but in prep for my speedruns I tested out different skaters and the stat points for that level are definitely based on the style of skating
Somebody tell me something please Since I played thps2 the original one, the secret area in Marsella what exactly is that? I mean It is only a room with a fountain but it looks weird I don't know
You also don’t even have to go up that way. There’s a pipe against the green wall you can grind up and over to get to that side. I guess to me if there’s a goal there it’s not really a secret area. Marseille and school 2. Yeah. You need to do certain things to access them but don’t need to access them to complete the level.
You need to grind the rail (Feed the Volcano gap) and you have a time limit to make the jump. If you don't make it first try, just restart the run. You will need to do the boneless to make it that far though
Never disliked a video on UA-cam or left a negative comment until now. This is utter garbage. Not only are all these areas not secret, but necessary in order to fully beat the game. And the skating gameplay was revolting. Watching the subway card collection in NY was like watching a toddler give a speech on world economics. Total cringe and clickbate.
When you get lead on by the title thinking there's something you missed these past 20 years, or even that they've discovered crazy glitches to out of bounds areas, to realize the whole video is more of a walk through than discovering anything, is a total clickbait let down. Maybe this whole video is geared toward the younger audience who have never played the game before, and I missed the mark. My bad.
Sorry, but I felt so validated when you didn't get the last subway card on your first try haha. That drove me crazy!
That. Goddamn. SUBWAY CARD!

These places were so magical when I was a kid

In NYC he didn’t do anything at all except do that one goal with the subway cards
@@wspencerwatkins unlocks the subway area, you can then go up there and follow the train track to the secret area, it's closed until you complete the subway card goal
Oli Walker oh okay fair enough then
Oli Walker I was confused about that too. I thought he was gonna show us the secret area like all the other ones but it goes to the next clip
I never knew about that one in Marseille.
U didn't get into the secret area in New York and u don't have to collect the cards, u can grind/jump over the wall where the rails ends to get there.
My brother and I discovered the gymnasium in school and the one in marseille while playing the ps1 version during quarantine...20 f*cking years later !
I like the comment!
Thanks for this vid! Been trying to remember the school 2 trick to get into the secret area for the last hour 😂
you don't have to do the no comply and it has to be done before the bell rings
You missed the secret area on NY it's literally half the map
And I don't get why skate street says u need both gap keys 1 opens both doors lol
@@bendrowned42069 there are 2 doors for one secret area and one for the other
@@CptnWolfe yea but I only grind one gap and both are open that's what I'm saying
Look for yourself unless it's just unlocked cuz u already did it lol
I went to both sides with 3 doors open off one grind
Would have been cool if they added secret areas to the first game! Shit would be wild to discover something again!
They did
They have the two secret spots in the tutorial park.
Bought today and just wow it looks amazing and just damn. And Damn I am so freaking rusty at it now. I lost all my skills

Also love this game now. Its been really fun to play it again after so many years. Didnt play it really when it first came out.
Who had these games on Nintendo 64!? I’m glad they came back out with this brings back old times
Still have THPS2
Had part 1. Was it a blue cartridge ?
@@MR.__G yes. It is blue and the second is yellow
@@CrunchyDark I had the 2 for ps & I remember the disc being yellow. Good times !!
@@MR.__G Man you just took me back in time 😂 I forgot the cartridge was blue.
So frustrating getting into the volcano - can never get there...
Make sure your air, hangtime, ollie, and speed stats are all the way up
3:33
That area is not really secret since you can easily get there with little to no task
The alien you kick into outter space at the end can also be found in Marseilles in the hidden area. Probably unlockes a charakter if you find them all.
Every level has one, theres 19. Its a hidden trophy and unlocks the Alien skater.
The unlock message is right there after he collects the Alien plushie...
Also the monkey sound you heard in the venice area is a collectible
Beat it in a day and love this shit. Patiently waiting for THUG2/American Wasteland remake
No you didn't
@@raulcal5150 beat it in 5 hours, grew up with it so I knew basically everything
THUG 1 and 2 would be so epic
Do these stay open forever or do you have to unlock it everytime you play the level?
School II, NY and Skatestreet does
You missed one in New York. There's a park at the end of the rails that can be accessed from the street.
That last subway card....😡🤬🤬
I can call tony if he will remake underground 1 and 2.

@@CptnWolfe found thanks!!
@@gtadead you're welcome
I still think the Hangar looks too clean compared to the original lol but I remember most of these hidden areas when I was little
How do you unlock the heaven level? I just finished the bullring competition with a non-custom player and have all my stat points maxed out. Thanks.
Not 100% but you might have to complete all the story goals. I did it with my custom skater and I unlocked it at the end
Colby Hutto Thanks!
Did you 100% both games?
Skate Heaven only requires 100% goals and gold medals in THPS2
hello, is it possible to complete all the objectives of all the parks with a pro skater without modifying his statistics? thank you
You dont have to wait for the bell to open the gym on school 2
seriously. so many people overcomplicate that one.

Love the vid bro
Gym doors dont work I knew I remembered one of the rails did that but it's just not working for me sadly
You have to grind it at 1:40 or 1:45. When you hear the bell ring that's when you grind.
Thank you I figured it out but it was the timing yes was pretty confused I auto assumed it was just broke lol
@@zetaknight8440 bell had nothing to do with it for me, I'm pretty sure you're supposed to 50/50 it for it to open
@@AndrewB23 it is the bell, i never do 5050 grinds and it only opens if i get the timimg perfect with the bell
Why did the Devs make it so F****** hard to unlock anything in the game
Also Skate Heaven and chopper drop!!!!! This game is way to hard for me imo

Honestly the online modes are pretty boring once you go against pros in the game private sessions would be great like add challenges and everything
Is that tony hawk skin unlockable or dlc?
It's free, also with a bunch of other famous skaters (plus you can create 4 of your own costume skaters)
Man I activated the volcano and it still only says feed me when I jump in it
that Philly one isn’t secret at all. they literally have objectives over there. you have to go over there.
The school 2 one doesn’t work
You have to grind the Opensesame rail when the school bell is going off at 1:40 left
correction, you need to do the rail grind before or during the bell going off at 1:40
I think he's talking about the opening to the gym.
I also did not immediately understand that it was imperative to ride along the railing
I wouldn't consider most of these secret areas because they have challenges associated with them
That’s literally the whole point of the secret areas, has been since the games came out.
I've tr3ied the schools first one over and over and still the doors won't open. What am I doing wrong?
As you hit 1:40 on the clock you need to grind the rail as the bell goes off exactly
people overcomplicate that one so hard. you just go and grind the rail as soon as the level starts. like immediately. head straight for it and go grind it ASAP.
all you have to do is grind the rail before the timer hits a certain number, its not as complex as these dudes make it seem.
In School II the school won’t open the doors for me, idk what’s the deal with it
you have to grind the rail when the bell rings
Awesome
How did u get that shirt
Can someone help me every time I do skatestreet the area doesn’t

Doors don’t open when I do exactly what you do on school 2
You have to wait for the bell to sound off. When it starts you need to start the rail, if it ends exactly when you get to the end of the rail, the screen will shake and the doors open
You can actually grind the rain before the bell rings and it will still work
why can't I find the stat point on the pool in school 2?
It wasnt there for me either. For me it was on an awning after you jump over the library as he shows here. Jump over where the secret tape was, then jump over that roof too. Itll be on the left on an awning.
It depends on the type of skater you're playing as. Street, Vert, etc have a different location for the stat points on that map
I figured it out, thx anyway (I thought it was random tho)
loco81cris all good man. I thought so too, but in prep for my speedruns I tested out different skaters and the stat points for that level are definitely based on the style of skating
Stats are different locations depending on your skaters style
This is good for graffiti when they don't know about these areas haha
Skater Heaven's volcano is the only area that actually feels like a secret. :P
I don’t understand why you showed NY when there is no secret area
there actually is one. I’m not sure why he cut so early and didn’t show it. its where the secret tape is.
Why don’t I have SKATER HEAVEN map ??????
Did you get it??
Nooooo.........
Somebody tell me something please
Since I played thps2 the original one, the secret area in Marsella what exactly is that? I mean It is only a room with a fountain but it looks weird I don't know
It's kinda like the catacombs
It's a tony hawk shrine area lol the statues are all hawk
You don't have to get all the cards to open the subway gate in NY. I don't know what opens it. I think time or grinding the statue.
you actually do need to collect all the subway cards. that’s how you open it. not sure what game you played.
Homie just skips the NY city one
Only secret was skate heaven
Who else fount these by accident
I think you need to look up the definition of "secret"
Lol dude u missed a few secret areas 💀
You can literally just jump the ramp to get to the secret area in VB you don't have to ride that trail 😂
A lot of these weren't even secret areas lmao but ight
Wtf was that ny clip lol you just wasted time getting the tickets which isnt even a secret
You can't go up the escalator before getting all the subway passes.
Mi B yea but it’s not a secret, it’s just so common
You also don’t even have to go up that way. There’s a pipe against the green wall you can grind up and over to get to that side. I guess to me if there’s a goal there it’s not really a secret area.

First of all, there are secret areas in tony hawk 1 not just two starting with hangar. Secondly, some of those "secret areas" aren't secret areas
