      Heck yeah, awesome! Could you guys also make it so in the classic mode we have now to have an option of changing the timer if we want? 2 minutes is too short of a time limit to me, so being able to extend it would be a nice feature to have.

    As a THPS single player only type, this really sounds great. THUGPRO should integrate the Storymode, too, maybe integrate the PSP story. I never ever play online, it just gives me nothing, so THUGPRO is just kinda try out a few maps and exit again. It feels so incomplete without any sort of campaign or career.

      THUGPRO at bare minimum needs to implement a create a classic mode where anybody can select levels and create goals for each one kinda like a SM maker and have them posted online to try out with zero restrictions like high score could be 100 points or a billion points.

      i think what glues us together the most is Neversoft, they really made something special with both THPS and their work with GH, and ofc they share Neversoft's engine so there's quite a bit of crossover when it comes to modding, specially with THAW, THP8 and THPG

    • @alaina_plays_games
      @alaina_plays_games 2 місяці тому

      It's all thanks to Neversoft, they were releasing these games during a time when all of us 90s kids dreamed of being in a punk band and when skate culture was still something that was making news and being shown on MTV. At the conventions I help to run here in the UK Guitar Hero is still one of the most popular games we have available for people to play, like there isn't a single moment where someone isn't playing the game from the moment we open till the moment we close every day and most of the people playing it are in their 30s or 40s

    I remember 6-7 years ago I randomly found Thug Pro and tried to play it, but I quickly abandoned it again because of the input and resolution issues you mentioned in this video. I haven't touched it ever since. Just randomly found this video and your recommendation of Rethawed got me intrigued! I think it's finally time for me to revisit Tony Hawk! I probably haven't played the games in over a decade, I've been missing it so much. Thanks for putting this on my radar ❤️

    While i knew of the series before, it's kinda hard to escape if you grew up in the 00's, THUG PRO was my first full introduction to the series, which eventually drove me to play the actual singleplayer campaigns. Games where the traversal of the environment is the main mechanic are really rare.
