About FAQ
=======================================================================
I have noticed that many people have thought that this is a FAQ for the
Playstation 2 version of the game. However, this is not for the Playstation 2,
it is for the PSOne. I would not normally care, but from what I have gathered,
there are quite a few discrepancies in both versions, so if it is used for
Playstation 2 then it might not have all of the goals and levels or secrets
listed.
This FAQ is a copyrighted work of Mike Truitt. If you would like to use it on
your site e-mail me at mat2810@cs.com and I will be more than happy to allow
you to use it, but I would prefer you ask. Note: This FAQ is still in its
beginning stages, I will update as often as possible, if you have any questions
just send me an email and I should answer it.
=======================================================================
Version History
=======================================================================
1.0 - Just started, I have a long way to go. I hope to get at least a
little typed in for the next week or so. Once Thanksgiving break
hits, there should be some major updates.
1.1 - Got all of the walkthrough in, as well as tricks (not specials
yet) for all of the skaters. I should have the gap checklist up
on the next update (names of the gaps, not the descriptions, but
eventually, they will be in there)
1.2 - Finished all of the walkthough (got in the icon and deck
listings) and added some in the about this FAQ section.
1.3 - Finished the Create-A-Skater section finished
1.4 - Added the Soundtrack section of the FAQ. Started on the Gap
Checklist section.
1.5 - Continued some work on the Gap Checklist section
1.6 - Finished Gap Checklist!!!!, Finished Characters
section.
1.7/1.9 - I have had some confusion about what updates are what, so
these were kind of just non-existant
2.0 - Worked real hard on updating most of the sections, added cheats
and changes sections.
In my next update, there will definatly be large additions in the changes
section of the FAQ, I also am planning on huge updates in the Create-A-Skater
section. If you have any of your own created skaters or want eny request on
them, I will add them to the next update of my FAQ.
If you have played any of the other Tony Hawk's Pro Skater games on any system,
the controls are basically the same as they were before.

Depending on whose house you were checking, Tony Hawk's been a household name
for over twenty years. But it's really his last half decade of contest winning
and 900 spinning that have tattooed HAWK on the foreheads of our youth. A
trailblazer in the effort to bring skateboarding to the ends of the world, Tony
has become an icon for a generation of kids sorely needed one. Through the
invention of coutless tricks, his seemingly limitless potential, and a sense of
grace and class that follows behind his quickly moving self, Tony Hawk soars.

An ideal combination of both East and West coast sensibilities, Kareem Campell
is not a bridge joining an equal-but-opposing geo-cultural issue, he's just an
authentic skater. Born and raised in real cities, his skate-life come-up led
Kareem to develop an urban foundation to his skateboarding. Not by design, but
rather out of necessity, his metro-style is a well-honed version of what the
rest of the world's street dwellers hope to someday attain: smart, real, and
smoothed out - without the R&B.

streets, and, of course, whatever. Pinching bits and peices of experiences from
all terrain has made Rune one of the mose veritile skaters of the day. Rune has
shown that treet, vert, or otherwise, it is possible to be at home no matter
where one may be in the world.

Rodney Mullen birthed today's street tech. Period. An icon among idols, he's
the man who freestyled many of the moves today's freshest pros use as a
foundation for their own progressive skating. Flat ground ollies, 360 flips,
and ollie impossibles were all made manifest by the critical thought and
problem solving of this tenured Prof. of skateboard conceptualism.

Chad Muska
------------------
With a nod to the past manifested in Muska Style, be it his deck designs or his
daring 'dos, this heroic skater proudly represents today's new breed of
renaissance professional skateboarders. This customized sled shredder is known
not only for his breathtaking leaps and bounds on board, but his other-level
self promotion - demoning, music making, and palm pressing like the tireless
public figure he's built himself up to into. Still, Muska has and always will
be respected for fearlessly testing the physical bounds of real deal street
skating with the best very of them.

====================================
The Foundry
====================================
When you are not punching in and melting some steel, take a tour of this
wonderful foundry, complete with big ramps, lofty rails, and hydraulic presses.
This is the perfect place to practie some moves and get your basic skills ready
for the next level.
------------------
High Score 10 000
------------------
This is a fairly easy thing to acomplish. All that is really neaded to do is
just put some combos into your run.
------------------
Pro Score 25 000
------------------
Although the score is higher, it is still quite easy. If you put a special
trick into any combo you should get this by the time you are done with the
combo.
This might be a little bit troubling if you have never played any Tony Hawk
game before. If you have then just put together a decent combo or two, and you
should get this in no time.
At the start of the level, go down the rollin that is in front of you. There
should be a kicker ramp at the bottom of the hill. Jump over the halfpipe
towards the hovering letter S.
When you land, there should be a rail in front of you. Grind on the rail, then
jump over the platform and land in a grind on the next rail. Doing this should
get you the letter K.
Turn to the left and you should see a ramp next to the wall. Go to the right of
the ramp and there should be a ledge in front of you. Grind on the ledge and
you should get the letter A.
At the end of the ledge jump off to the left and land in a grind on the rail
that is comming downhill. At the end of the rail jump off and you should get
the letter T.
When you land, you should see a quarter pipe to your right. Jump off of the
middle of the quarter pipe and you should get the letter E.
------------------
Hit the Valves
------------------
At the start of the level, turn to your right and go down the rollin on the far
right. At the bottom of the hill, you should see the first valve on your right.
On the other side of the half pipe is a ramp that leads to a platform. Once you
get on the platform the second valve should be on your right. Go down the ramp
on the other side of the valve, and you should see the third valve to your
right. From there, turn left and go to the opposite side of the level. There
should be a fourth valve just opposite of where the third was. From there, turn
left and follow the path until you get to the half pipe. Go to the other side
of the half pipe and you should see the final valve.
At the start of the level go down the rollin and go forward until you get to
the half pipe. Jump over the half pipe, but aim a bit to the right. There
should be a path to the right of the platform. Go down that path and grind the
ledge on your left. Doing this should acivate the press.
------------------
Cannonball the Halfpipe
------------------
At the start of the level go down the rollin and go forward until you get to
the half pipe. Jump completly over the half pipe and do the Cannonball trick
(Right + Circle)
------------------
Grind the Control Booth
------------------
Skate all of the way to the back of the level, and go to where you got the
letter A. Grind the middle of the ledge and you should get the control booth.
------------------
Secret Tape
------------------
Skate to the back of the level, and go to the ramp to either the far left or
the far right. Once you are about halfway up, wallride the wall and jump up and
land in a grind on the pipe. At the end of the pipe wallride the wall again and
jump up to the second level. Once you are on the second level, jump off of the
quarter pipe in the center. When you land, jump off of the kicker ramp and onto
one of the platforms. Grind the rail that is furthest away from the wall, and
at the end of it, jump off and land in a grind on the hanging pipe. At the end
of these pipes is the secret tape.
------------------
100% Goals and Icons
------------------
To get this you must get all of the goals listed above and all of the icons,
all 5 stats and one deck icon.
-=-=-=-=-
Stat #1
=-=-=-=-=
As soon as you start the level, turn to your right and skate over to the
quarter pipe. Jump out of the quarter pipe and to your left and land in a grind
of the pole comming off of the wall.
-=-=-=-=-
Stat #2
=-=-=-=-=
At the start of the level turn a little to your left and then jump off of the
kicker ramp and land on the walkway that is hovering in the air. Follow the
path until the end of it and you should get the second icon.
-=-=-=-=-
Stat #3
=-=-=-=-=
After getting the "Activate the Press" you should see a platform rise up. At
either end of the ledge that you grinded should be a large kicker ramp. Jump
off of the ramp and land on the platform. In the middle of the platform is this
icon
-=-=-=-=-
Stat #4
=-=-=-=-=
At the start of the level, skate down the far left rollin. Keep on skating
until you get to the back of the level. There should be a platform all along
the back that has a gap in it. Grind the platform towards the gap, and then
jump over the gap and you should get this stat.
-=-=-=-=-
Stat #5
=-=-=-=-=
At the start of the level, skate down the far left rollin. Keep on skating
until you get to the back of the level until you get to the ramp with a pipe to
the left of it. Wall ride the wall and then jump up and grind the pipe. At the
end of the pipe jump up to the high platform. As soon as you land there should
be an icon to your right.
-=-=-=-=-
Deck Icon
=-=-=-=-=
At the start of the level skate a little bit to your right and jump off of the
kicker ramp and land on the hovering platform. Skate all of the way to the back
of the platform, then turn to your left and you should see a room. Skate into
that room and the deck icon should be in the middle of it.
=====================================
Los Angeles
=====================================
Ah yes, La-la land. The place where dreams are made and cars sit in traffic.
This leel offers only the best Los Angeles skate locations, complete with smog
and earthquake damaged highways and buildings. It's post earthquare LA friend,
so do you run, or do you skate?
------------------
High Score 10 000
------------------
This is a fairly easy objective to get, all you really need to do is skate
around and pull of some simple combos and you should have this in no time.
------------------
Pro Score 40 000
------------------
This score is also a pretty simple score to get. If you are having some
problems, make sure you know your characters specials and try to do it a few
times.
100 000 is the first score that some people start to have problems with. Make
sure you do a few specials used in a large combo and you should get this fairly
easily.

General Hints & Tips
=======================================================================
1. Do not get frustrated when you play.
2. Always look for a good combo to put into your run.
3. Always remember your characters specials.
4. When you are loosing balance on a grind, you can balance yourself
using the D-Pad
5. Have Fun!!!
=======================================================================
High Scores
=======================================================================
There are quite a few tips that you will need that will help you out to
complete most of the lines. Here, I will try to get most of them in here.
1. Always, skate around and figure out what exactly you will need to
do to get the whole line.
2. Try to get at least one of your skaters stats up to the max that
they can be
3. Manualing is the key to everything, you can not get most of the
lines with out being able to manual very well.
4. You should get used to the level that you are going to try the
combo on, if you don’t you will have to go through a lot of
needless frustration.
5. Try not to go too fast or too slow, both can destroy the attempt.
6. Try the lines in free skate mode, it would be pointless to do
in anything other that free skate.
7. Don’t give up too easily, some off the combos are frustrating at
first, and will even take a few hours to do them correctly (not
the trick itself, but to finally do it right)
8. Look for a shortcut, some times you think that you have to do the
combo on way but instead, you can do it another, and it makes
it extremely easier.
9. Learn how to balance yourself well on grinds, even if it is not a
part of the combo, it will help you rack up you point totals.
10. When ever you are loosing you balance on a manual or a grind to a
point when you know that you will fall, jump, pull of a trick, and
land in a manual or a grind again, sometimes you will fall, but
others, for some reason, will balance you out perfectly.
11. Use a skater that you are used to, this way you know how to balance
him or her on manuals, and you know just how they will react.
12. If you are not good at performing quick tricks, turn on the slow-
nic code, it will slow down time while you are performing tricks.
This will allow you to pull off tricks that you normally would have
the reaction time for.
13. Wall ridding also helps, it can get you to some hard to get places
like on top of buildings, or it can get you huge air if you jump at
the right time, you can even pull of "The 900" if you jump at the
right time
14. If you are trying to get your multiplyer up, equip the Japan Air
Madonna or Airwalk. You will be able to pull off 2 Japan Airs in
between two manuals, and you will be able to get at least 6 in each
vert trick.
------------------------------------
All Around High Scores
------------------------------------
There are a few ways to get high scores. There are two parts of your score, a
base score and a multiplier. The base score is the score before the
multiplication sign and the multiplier is the number after the multiplication
sign. If this is confusing here is a diagram .......
8564 is the base score and 12 is the
Base Score multiplier. To figure out the score of
8564 * 12 your combo the game figures out 8564*12
Multiplier If this was the score of your combo
then you would get a score of 102,768. Some
people have a hard time getting the base score while others have a hard time
getting the multiplier up. If you have trouble with one then you can still get
decent combos, but if you have problems with both then you will not get
anything over 100,000 with the average combo. To get a high base score is hard
to do at first until you figure out the secrets of it (You don't think that it
is just the line that you take did you?). The first thing that you will need is
a long rail or quarter pipe to grind. But just grinding will not help, you need
to have your skater equipped with an expensive special grind that you can
balance easily, most people find that Heelflip Darkslide is the easiest.
Instead of just using a special grind to a huge spin into the grind, and here
is why...
The more that you spin,
Degree of Spin Times your score is higher the more the trick will
180 1.5 be worth. The increase
360 2 is shown on the left. So
540 3 if you do a 360 Heelflip
720 4 Darkslide for 5 seconds
900 6 it will be 2x the score
1080 8 if you did just Heelflip
1260 10 Darkslide. So the more
spinning you do the higher the
base score will be. Often times people ask "How do you get such huge spins into
a grind?" Well it is hard, I can only do the 1260 once every blue moon and the
1080 is still a freak the 900 is easier to do. To do them you will need to do
one of three things: do a quick wall ride then a spin into a grind, or jump off
of a building into a grind, or jump off of the side of a quarter pipe into a
rail. This is one of the hardest part of getting the huge score is the
spinning. Instead of just spinning while you are going into a grind, do a
special grab that is quick to pull off and also easy to spin with, the best one
to do this with is the Pogo Air. Once you get this down you will have a huge
base score. Getting your multiplier up is a little bit easier once you know
what to do. After your grind you won't have much grinding balance so you will
have to get your multiplier up another way. This way is easy. The easiest way
and most obvious way to do it is jump kick trick then manual the repeat as much
as necessary. The other way will get your multiplier up faster but you have to
be a little bit more careful. You have to wall ride and jump off, while you are
in the air you can pull off two to three kickflips before you land into another
manual, and if you wallride in a corner you can get some serious air, while
doing this it is easier to do a grab trick and get a little bit higher. Be
careful when going into the corner because often times you will get a Big Drop
and you could fall. Once you have a high base score and a high multiplyer (the
highest possible is 55 so try to be at around 35-45) you need to do something
to finish it off. The easiest way to do this is by jumping off of a quarter
pipe. While you are in the air you have to options to finish it off, one is to
do one long grab trick while spinning to get the base score a little bit
higher, and the other one is to do a few fast grab tricks to get you multiplier
up a bit more. When you land there is only one way to land and that is perfect.
There are quite a few people who have problems with this, the easiest trick to
do that helps you land perfect is the Benihanna, it pretty much just points the
direction in which you are going to land. Landing perfect will in some cases
over double your score. When you start to use the same move multiple times in
one move (or one run if you are in Career Mode or single Sesson) the score you
will get for that trick will go down. As you can tell from the chart that I
made the first time
that you do the trick you will get 100% what the
1st time- 100% trick is worth, then the second time that you do
2nd time- 75% the same trick you will get 75%, then the third
3rd time- 50% time you do that same trick you will get 50% of
4th time- 25% what the trick is worth, and the fourt time you
5th + time- 10% will get 25% of what the trick is worth, and every
after that you will get 10% of what the original trick was
worth. If you use this corectly, espesially in a run where you are trying to
get in the 10 million range this will help you out. If you know the first time
you do a special grind it will be worth a certain amount, then after you use it
again it is worth less, you might want to find a couple of special grinds that
you are good at to get a huge run, instead of using the same one over and over
again.

While in the Park Editor Mode, press the start button to get into this option.
There are many different options here....
Freeride Test - After you have made parts or all of your park and you
would like to play it to see if it is good, but don't
want to save it yet, you can go to this option. Here
you will be able to play for as long as you want. To
get back into the Park Editor just pause the game and
go to quit, then back to editor.
New Park - When you first enter Park Editor you will be set with a
park, but if you would like a park of a different size you
should go to this option. There are five different sizes.
16 X 16 24 X 24 30 X 30
30 X 18 60 X 6
Set Theme - Here you can choose what type of setting your park will
have. There is no real impact that this option has to your
park, just a neat addition. There are four different
options for what the setting will be...
Curch Outside
Parking Lot Industrial
Save - Once you have made your park and would like to save it onto your
memory card, go here. There is not anything else that you can do
with this option.
Load - If you have a saved park and you would like to alter it in some
way, then go into this option.
Exit Editor - This is self explanatory. If you do not want to stay in
editor then go here. You will be asked if you would like
to save your park when you go to this option.

There are a couple of things that you should not do if you want to make a good
spot.
1. Do Not make the park all vert or all street.
2. When making rails, do not make too many rails real close together.
3. Try not to make too many Pungee Pits
There are also a couple of things that you should do to make a real good park.
1. Make sure that you leave some open space
2. Make a couple of gaps to add some challenge
3. Try to make at least one good high scoring line.
------------------------------------
How to Make Courses
------------------------------------
1. For a beginner course you should probably start out with the size 24
X 24, or 30 X 30. Either way, just make sure that you have enough
space to make the course that you want to.
2. After you have your course set, it is always good to start out with
a half pipe some where in your course. Most, likely the best spot
for it to be would be in the corner of your park, so it is out of
the way a little bit, but still accessible.
3. A good thing to do after that would be to make something that in
some way connects to, or relates to the half pipe that you just
made. This is usually done by making a quarter pipe on the back end
of open side, or a ramp on the back end. Other ideas might be to
have stairs leading up to the back end. What ever you can think of,
it will most likely work.
4. With the opposite corner of the park, you could create a type of
trail by making a series of rails and kicker ramps, or even sets of
steps and within the trail, make sure that you put in some Funboxes,
and maybe a planter if you are planning to make it an outdoor park.
If you made a small quarter pipe you could also make a long curved
quarter pipe like in THPS Warehouse.
5. If you made a decent trail, you should have quite a bit of the
course area covered, and then the rest of the course would be just
filling in the spaces with little nick-knacks. Note: Those little
nick-knacks can make or break the course (in THPS Warehouse, the set
of kicker ramps and the long rail make the course much better than
it would be if they tried to pack in a ton of ramps and rails, so
you don't need to have a ton of pieces to make a good course)
6. You should have your beginner course just about done, all you will
need to do is make gaps, horse positions and starting positions. If
you want to make some gaps, try to make them of ranging value. You
also do not want to make too many worth 5000 points.
1. Once again, make your course 24 X 24 or even 16 X 16. It all depends
on what you are going for on your course. You could do just about
any size and make a decent course, just I would recommend these two
sizes.
2. Instead of making a halfpipe in the corner, you might want to make
some sort of level change in the corner. This can be done by either
making a pool, or adding risers. You should not make the risers too
high because you might not be able to build on top of them if you
wanted to.
3. If you did make a risers, you will need to make a way to get up
there. One of the best ways to do this is to make steps, you should
only set up a rail on every other to every fourth set sideways.
Personally, I like to make as many steps possible by using the Quad
Sets. This will make your steps more visible and will catch your eye
better. If you want the steps to be less desecrate, use the Double
Set and make the steps less steep.
4. If you made a pool, then you should find a way to make a transfer
into a the pool, or from the pool. One way to do this is to make
another pool to jump from to get into that pool. One of my favorite
little things to do is to make a sloped lunch table into the pool.
You could also make a planter into the pool, or if you made a curve
in your pool, you could fill in the area with that planter.
5. Just like in the Beginner course, the one thing that will make or
break your course is the line of the rails and kicker ramps or
quarter pipes. This is where your creativity should set in. If you
can finish off the rest of the course and make it fun then you will
have a good course, if not then you should have a mediocre course.
6. You should have your beginner course just about done, all you will
need to do is make gaps, horse positions and starting positions. If
you want to make some gaps, try to make them of ranging value. You
also do not want to make too many worth 5000 points.
1. There is nothing that should change from the directions from the
Intermediate course. To make a really good advanced course you will
need some really good creativity.
2. If you need a good addition, one thing that can make a fun course is
a secret room. Not many people think about this. There are two ways
to do this. One is to block off an area using the Wall Piece. Then
make whatever you want in that area. To get into that area you will
need to make a high quarter pipe, in fact the highest possible
quarter pipe if you want to jump over it. The other way to do it is
block off most of the area with the Wall Pieces and then make risers
in the opening so you will need to jump over the risers. There are
many ways to get into this room.
=======================================================================
Create A Skater
=======================================================================
-------------------------------------
The DOs and DON'Ts
-------------------------------------
There are many things that will either make your created skater either really
good or really bad. Some of the ideas may not be so abvious, and others may be
quite obvious.
The DON'Ts
- Never make the shirt color and the pants color the exact same, it
will not look as good.
- Do not make your skater too fat or too thin, it may look cool at
first, but eventually it does not work well when you are looking at
something.
- Do not make you stats too heavy in just one catagory, all the others
will be real bad and will end up hurting you.
The DO's
- If you want a skater to have the same color shirt and pants, try to
find two colors that are close, but not the same.
- Try to make all of your stats somewhat even, (If you do not have any
idea of how to set them up I gave a few options in the Stats Menu
area.
- Try to make a specific style of clothing for your skater ie. thug,
goth, skater, prep etc.
------------------------------------
Roster Menu
------------------------------------
When you first get into the Main Menu of the game, you should notice an option
called Create Skater. If you decide you want to make a skater that resembles
you or one of your friends, go into this option. The first screen that
appears is a Roster Menu. There is not much to do here. All it shows is the
names of all of your created skaters (up to four) and some options at the
bottom.
If you have made a created character but did not like it very much, go to that
skater and press the Square button, this should delete this character.
If you have a character on another memory card or save press the Circle
button, this should lead you to a screen resembling the one where you load
your career and the controls are all the same.
If you want to leave this menu press the Triangle button and this
should put you back to the Main Menu.
If you have found a character that you want to change or make a new one,
go to them and press the X button and you will go onto the next
screen.
------------------------------------
Main Options Screen
------------------------------------
Name- You can make your name anything that you want to using letters
numbers and some symbols, the default option is Skater A.
Hometown- You can enter the name that you want your skater to live in,
once again you have the options of numbers letters and some
symbols, the default option is Woodland Hills.
Age- You can choose the age of your skater, ages vary anywhere from 5
years old to 55 years old, and add up by one, so you can choose
any age within that range.
Style- There are three different styles that each skater can be. Vert,
Street and All Around. A vert skater should have better Air,
Hangtime, Ollie, Speed, and Spin, while a street skater should
have better Switch, Rail Balance, Lip Balance, Manuals, and
Speed, but an all around skater should have average of every
thing.
Stance- There are two options here, Regular and Goofy. A regular stance
is when your feet face the right, and a goofy stance is when
your feet face the left. These are both true if they are not in
switch and are looking at them from behind, like the camera
does when you skate.
Weight- There are many options here- 88, 101, 115, 130, 145, 162, 180,
198, 217, 238, 254, 281, 304, 328, 352, and 378. All of these
numbers are in pounds.
Once you have all of these option decided, go to where it says next and you
should go onto the Appearance Menu

Stats Menu
--------------------------------------
The only thing that you do when you enter this menu is give your skater his
statistics, you have 5 points to give him and 10 sections to give them.
If you have chosen your skater to be a vert skater you should probably have
set him up something close to this.
Note: These are just examples that I have made up they are not a direct
outline of what your skater should be, just an example of what a good skater
of that type would be.
In this area I will enter ways to make different Celebrities in the create a
character mode...

1. What exactly is a revert, and when should I do it?
A revert is a trick where you quickly spin around 180 degrees right as you are
landing from a vert trick. You should try to hit the R2 button right as you are
landing.
There have been many changes between Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 on Playstation
One and the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 for Playstation 2. At first you might just
think that there will be minor changes, but there are quite a few distinct
changes.
Graphics:
PSOne
The skater designs for Playstation One, are pretty much the same as they were
in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 for the same system. However, in Tony Hawk 2, the
skaters seemed to be attached much better to their envornment than they do
here. Since the develuper is Shabba and not Activision, the graphics are much
more grainy and choppy, much like those of Mat Hoffman's Pro BMX.
PS2
Absolute perfection. There is no other way to describe it. Tony Hawk's Pro
Skater 3, just like the previous two versions of the game, pushes the limits of
Playstation 2, and has the best graphics for any game out for its time. Just
look at screenshots of this game for each version and you will be able to tell
the difference almost immeadiatly.
In this section I will feature reviews from review writers at GameFAQs.com as
well as submissions from anybody who wishes for their reviews to be in here. If
you want your reveiw posted, send me an e-mail at mat2810@cs.com and I might
post it providing it follows the rules listed below and is fairly well done.
Your name will be listed with the review. I do have some rules for reviews if
you wish for yours to be posted....
#1: No foul language
#2: It must be more than 500 words
#3: I do have the right to refuse any reviews that are sent to me.
#4: You must score your review from 1 - 10
#5: You must have a tagline (A one or two line saying summing up the
game)

Not the best in the series, but still worth playing....
With all of the hype surrounding it, will Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 be
able to keep up with the expectation of gamers everywhere? On top of all of the
pressure prom the hype that is second only to a Final Fantasy game, Tony Hawk's
Pro Skater 3 is being made on a system that is all but dead, the Playstation.
With Neversoft focusing its skills on the big brother of this port, they
allowed Shabba to produce this version of the game. For those who do not know
who Shabba is, they were the ones that made Mat Hoffman's Pro BMX, a game that
many think might be the worst Tony Hawk clone out there, and Thrasher: Skate
and Destroy, a game that was able to best compete with Tony Hawk. With all of
these variables affecting it, can Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 stand up and still
be a great game? Quite simply put, the answer is surprisingly yes.
There are many new additions that Tony Hawk 3 has that its two younger
brothers do not have. The most obvious, as well as controversial, is the
Revert. By adding the Revert, as well as dozens of other tricks,
Activision gave the virtual skaters to extend there conbos way beyond
what is humanly possible. To many this is an extremely fun feature, but
to others it takes much of the strategy out of getting the insane combos that
we all so badly desire. Scores that the best of the best in Tony Hawk 2 could
only get if they were lucky are now commonplace in many areas. This is
definatly a double-edged sword in many ways. For those without much skill, they
will be able to surpass what they could only dream about getting, but on the
other hand, you are taking many of the players' ability to set realistic, yet
challenging goals for themselves. Many can not decide which side they are on,
they like the fact that they can break ten million at will, but don't like the
fact that they were using a trick, that if used correctly, gives you the
opportunity to never land your combo without using any cheats at all. This is a
very difficult dilemma to be caught up in.
If you have played one of the previous two versions of the Tony Hawk
series, then you will undoubtedly be familiar with the story line. As
Tony Hawk, or one of twelve other pro skaters, you must find a series of icons
scattered throughout the level and get huge scores in one of the many levels.
If you are good enough, you will come to one of the three competitions. Here,
you must pull off all of your tricks in perfect order, then if you have enough
skill, you will have come away with the gold medal. Assuming that you have
gotten all of the icons and goals in every level, as well as getting all of the
gold medals, you will unlock either a secret character, or a new cheat. Next,
you will have to do the same thing with more than a dozen other pro skaters as
well as hidden and created characters. By the end of the game, it gets quite
monotonous and will leave you begging for the master cheat code.
For those who have played the Playstation 2 version of the game, they
have seen and experienced some of the greatest graphics dawned upon the
video game industry outside of a FMV. After playing, or even seeing it
being played, there is absolutely nothing that can compare to it on the
Playstation. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 is not an exception in any way. At first,
to many veterans, the graphics seem oddly unfamiliar, but for
those who have played Mat Hoffman's Pro BMX, they will be a dead on
match to those. This is because Shabba produced both of those games
using basically the same engine. Anybody knows that there is no way that the
graphics compare to those of Playstation 2, but suprizingly they are some of
the better ones for Playstation. There are many spots where the graphics will
get glitchy and foggy, as well as how graphics will seem to just pop up instead
on gradually come into existence. This can get annoying extremely quickly.
Other that that, the graphics are clean and well presented, a very well done
game visually.
When Tony Hawk's Pro Skater first came out over 3 years ago, it had what was
considered the best soundtrack in a game not titled Final Fantasy or
Castlevania. There was nothing that could even compare to it. Then along came
the sequel, which blew the mind of every video game fan on the planet. This
time around, Neversoft chose to go with more big name bands, instead of
underground bands which they have done in the past. Even the precedents of punk
rock, The Ramones, were not able to resist the offer from this classic series.
Although there is not any comparison between the soundtrack for Tony Hawk's Pro
Skater 3, and its previous versions, the soundtrack is definatly worth
listening to.
With the controls that have implanted themselves into our subconscience
over the last four years of playing them and frustrating over them, Tony Hawk's
Pro Skater 3 instantly had one of the best control systems in the industry.
There are only a few minor changes that have been put to effect for the, what
is likely the last, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater game for the Playstation. The first
major change in the Revert. The Revert allows you to do a quick turn right as
your are landing on a quarter pipe and is able to be ollied from or manualed
from. The other change is the quick 180 degree turn. No longer can you use this
quick spinning, high scoring trick to your advantage. Still, there is no
person, especially a Tony Hawk's Pro Skater fan, that can not like the game for
that.
As there was in the transaction between the first two installments in
the series, there is a slight different in the gameplay. Between Tony
Hawk 1 and Tony Hawk 2, the gameplay seems to slow down just enough so
that it is noticeable. Now, there seems to be a slight increase in the
speed of the gameplay. With these changes, it makes each game unique and
different. Another good thing about the speed change it makes you feel as if
you are playing a whole new game instead of just the same game over and over
again. Unlike the perfection that is known as Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, there
are some flaws in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3's
gameplay. Although it is not as extreme as Dave Mirra's Freestyle BMX,
it does seem as though you are magnetically attracted to many of the
rails throughout the game. Basically Tony Hawk 3 does nothing to improve upon
or regress from the great, almost perfect game play of the whole Tony Hawk's
Pro Skater series.
2-Player Mode in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 is one of the largest let
downs in a long time for many people. Shabba, instead of putting there
balls on the line and making some changes and adding onto what was
handed to them from Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, did absolutely nothing.
Not that the 2-Player Mode was bad, it seems just after a while you
expect more options and what you have gets kind of old. Just like many
other people, I was quite disappointed in the multiplayer section of
this game.
Being extremely similar to its two predecessors, the challenge of Tony
Hawk's Pro Skater 3 all depends on just whom is playing the game. For a
seasoned veteran, there is no real challenge other than finding all of
the gaps. For the mediocre player, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 will present a
decent challenge, and for a first time player, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 will be
a very difficult game. If you are hoping to have a game that is more
challenging than Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 & 2, this is not one that I would
recommend to many people.
Outside of the Revert, there is not very much that is original about
this version of the game. Career Mode is based on the same things as
before, but instead of your stats increasing naturally, or having to be
bought, you will have to find icons that increase your stats and give
you a new deck in each one of the levels. Unlike the huge improvements
is Create-A-Skater Mode and Park Editor in the Playstation 2 version of
the game, there is almost no change in either one of those modes, very
disappointing.
One thing that Shabba has done well is keep the fun in the game. Besides the
fact that many of the level designs are poor at best (Canada being the best
example), what has been done well is fun to play. Continuing in the tradition
of the first two versions of the game, huge scores are able to be gotten for
those who know how, and if you know how, nothing can be more entertaining than
stringing together a huge combo that ranges into the millions of points.
Having been somewhat of a short time since I have beaten the game, it is hard
to tell just how much replay value is in this game. Many of the
levels do not open themselves up very well to huge scores. This can
either be a good thing, or a bad thing, only time will tell. However,
from the way that things are looking, there will be plenty of replay
value to go around.
I would recommend that any non-Playstation 2 owner to get this game.
That is, of course, assuming that they were a fan of one of the two
previous versions of the game.
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 could be best described as an expansion pack to its
previous two versions. If some were to offer you more specials, Bam Margera (of
Jackass fame), and 9 more levels to your Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, you would
take that offer in no time. That is pretty much what Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3
is.
The new Tony Hawk sequel finally arrived after some time. This time 2 Tony
Hawks will appear, one for PlayStation, one for PlayStation 2. No PlayStation 2
review yet, but a PlayStation review instead. Lets see if this game lives up to
the legend. And also to what we expect it to be.
The game begins with an intro movie with real life skaters, doing the most
amazing tricks and stunts and after that you'll end up in the menu. And that's
one of the bad things in this game! In Tony Hawk 2, you had a quite original
menu, with the spinning wheel and all. But now the menu is just a list of all
the options available. There are different modes, that we all know from the
previous games, like the Career Mode, Free Skate Mode, Single Session and the 2
Player Mode. You can also design your own park again and create your own
skateboarder. Lets go for a Free Skate. You'll end up in some kind of factory
with a lot of smoke and rusty things. This first level is kind of
disappointing, it's very dark and hard to get an overview of the whole level.
But hey, it's all about the goals that you need to complete, so quit Free
Skating and try the Career Mode. Picked Tony Hawk and I was on my way again.
The first 3 goals are high scores to beat, other goals are getting 5 letters
(SKATE) and 5 other things (Like buttons or switchboards.). And of course
there's the secret tape in each level. And there are a few goals that change
from level to level. After completing some goals, I unlocked the next level, so
I moved on. And this level is much better! This next level is in the middle of
a big city, with huge buildings. You can get pretty high in this level. For
example, you can take an elevator that will bring you to the top of the highest
building, to grind a cable back to the streets again. Just one tiny mistake and
you'll end the BIG DROP on your face. Fortunately, I had some experience with
Tony Hawk games (Who doesn't?) so it worked quite well. After completing some
more goals, I saved my game and though about this new experience for a while.
Yeah, the Tony Hawk feeling was coming back to me quickly!
The graphics can be compared with the previous part in the series. Very good
for PlayStation standards. The boarders are very detailed and the environment
are pretty realistic too. There's a lot of pop up though, but that isn't very
disturbing. The parks are very big and have a good design (Except for park
number one, that was a bit disappointing!). Especially the parks that you'll
get to later, like Airport and Canada, are very big and beautiful. These parks
have a lot of secret areas that you will only get to when you raised your
stats. You can raise your stats by finding the little stat signs in every
level. There are 5 signs in each level. Some aren't very hard to find, but some
will take some time before you get them. There's also a hidden deck in each
level. When you found the deck, collected the stats and completed every goal,
you completed the level for a 100%. Next to the normal levels, the tournament
levels are also available again. You need to do 3 runs in a tournament level.
You need to get as many points as possible without bailing. The worst run
doesn't count, but the best 2 do. When you get the gold medal, you'll get a
bonus level and the ending movie at the end. The bonus level doesn't have any
goals, but you can use it in Free Skate Mode and in the Single Session.
When I first started Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3, I only paid attention to the
controls and the graphics, but the music came later. The music is good and
really fits the game. There are all different kinds of music, but most of it is
just rock. The music is very important and stimulating, especially in the Free
Skate Mode. I don't know how much time you'll spend on this game before you
finish it, because that depends on your experience. If you know the controls
(Which are exactly the same as in the previous games!), you'll really fly
through the levels towards the end. But if you never played these games before,
you'll spend quite some time on this game. You can finish the game again with
another skater, after you finished it with the first skater. But you won't
enjoy it as much as the first time when you do so. You can also try to find all
the 'gaps' in every level. A gap is a space between 2 objects, and you can earn
extra points by jumping from one object to the other. For example, grinding
from one rail to jump and grind another one. Or jumping from one ramp to
another, which is called a transfer. Some of the gaps are very hard to finds
and even the most experienced gamers will find it hard to find all of them.
So Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 is simply an excellent game. But I can't find many
changes though, compared to the previous Tony Hawk game. The controls are
exactly the same and the graphics look alike. But the levels are totally
different, of course, and that's the main reason for buying this game. When you
want more than just new parks, wait for Tony Hawk 3 for the PlayStation 2,
which will contain more new things and looks better, of course. To all the
other people I can only say that this game is great!
This is not your typical game review (and it's long)
Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 (THPS3) was one of my most awaited games for
Playstation, especially considering that everything is pretty much for PS2 now.
After playing the addiction (literally) that was THPS1 and 2 (although I didn't
like 2 as much as 1), and reading the review stuff on 3, I was eagerly awaiting
my next hit. While the game was certainly everything I had read it to be, let
me say up front that it wasn't all I think it could have been.
Now, let me say upfront that I am NOT going to compare the PSONE version of
THPS3 to the PS2 version. First and foremost, I haven't played the PS2 version
(waiting to get a PS2 for Christmas). Even if I had, it wouldn't be a fair
comparison. PS2 has so much more power than the PSONE that it would be like
comparing an Atari 2600 game to a Super NES game and concluding that the Atari
game wasn't any good.
Instead, I want to gauge THPS3 relative to the first two games, as well as on
its own merits. I'm also going to assume everyone has played the first two
games so that anything I say about them won't be a spoiler (I won't give any of
the hidden/secret stuff about THPS3 away).
Now, most people consider THPS1 to be one of the classics of the Playstation, a
must-play game no matter what your favorite genre is. I happen to agree.
Outside of the technical aspects of the game (which were excellent, including
the super tight control scheme that just about every skateboarding game that
came afterwards copied), it simply had that indescribable fun factor. Sure, the
learning curve is a bit steep but once you get the hang of it, its a blast
cranking out tricks and combos. That is, like many games of my youth (I'm a
crusty 31 as I write this), it was just fun to play. Whether I was trying to
complete part of the Career mode or just popping it in for a few quick session
runs, it was fun. In fact, even 2 years afterwards (and despite having had
THPS2 since it came out), I still go back and play THPS1 quite frequently, even
more than I play THPS2. Of course, I also play old Apple II and arcade games in
emulation so what do I know?
Anyway, THPS2 was a good improvement on the first. The addition of the manual
did deepen gameplay, as well as being able to switch around tricks (both
regular and specials). I should mention that I personally liked the idea of
each skater having their own signature moves from THPS1 better. That is, the
360 flip to mute is a Hawk original, along with the 900. Being able to give any
skater the 900 or the Heelflip Darkslide takes away from the individuality of
the skaters in my opinion. But that's just me. The levels didn't seem to have
quite the thrill as in THPS1 but some of that is simply the inevitable
comparison to the original ; you never forget your first, as the old saying
goes. The addition of the two unlockable secret characters (Spiderman, with his
own special moves which were cool to watch ; and Private Carerra who now had to
be unlocked by finding all the gaps) was also an interesting improvement.
Skater Heaven was possibly one of the coolest additions ever. For those of us
old enough to remember the Bones Brigade and ''Search for Animal Chin'', the
areas in that level were just fun to play around on. The addition of stats that
you could increase with cash added a bit more depth, although not as much as
you think (since I invariably ended up maxing out everything in the same order,
first increasing rail balance so I could get high grind scores, and then
worrying about everything else and both switch and big drop are fairly useless
stats).
Which brings us to THPS3. Which, in some ways, stepped forward, and some ways
stepped backwards.
First, lets look at forwards. Ok, there are more skaters including perennial
favorite (for anyone who likes the show Jackass, and I'm not one of them) Bam
Margera. There was also the addition of some truly outrageous super moves (like
Bam's Jackass grab and some silly grinds like the Coffin and Human Dart
Grinds). Even some of the added regular moves are really cool to look at, like
the Crookedcop, cannonball, and Shifty airs.
And, then there's the revert. Vert skaters, who had been ignored, at least from
the standpoint of combos in the first two games, now had a way to link together
vert moves. I guess this is considered a forward move. I also consider it a
backwards move for a reason I'll come to in a second. The level designs (which,
from what I can tell are scaled down versions of the PS2 levels) are a lot
busier and frenetic (look it up), with even more combo possibilities than the
first two games. Which is both good and bad. yes, it gives you more combo
options, but it also makes it harder to figure out what's going on (the levels
simply have too much going on).
And then there's backwards. First, there's the revert. I know why Neversoft
decided to put it in, to make the vert guys happy so they could get the kinds
of combos that the street skaters were racking up. Thing is, it makes pulling
off absurd scoring combos way too easy. I mean, getting a high combo (100k
plus) in THPS1 was extremely difficult, takes some seriously mad gaming skillz.
And there are still combos in THPS1 that I can't pull off consistently, like
the Holy Sh*t grind, even after two years of playing. 400k+ and then some
combos in THPS2 were doable without cheats as long as your grind and manual
balance skills were good. In, THPS3, you can literally pull off million point
combos without too much trouble. That's with no cheats, assuming you have any
skills at balancing during grinds and manuals (and once you max out those
stats, its that much easier to do).
So, you ask, so what? Well, some of the level goals (three on each level, to be
exact) are score goals (High score, Pro Score, and Sick Score in order of
increasing value). Even the highest high score goal (something like 250,000
points for the Canada level as I recall) is trivial to get with the revert
because you can get twice that in a single combination if you're decent at the
game at all. That is, when you can get 800k or more (some people are reporting
3 million point combos with the revert), getting the Sick score of 250k isn't
difficult at all.
The revert also affected the competition levels. Despite claims in the game
(all three of them) and instructions that your competition scores (0 to 99.9)
are made based on originality and falls, they're not for the most part ;
they're based mainly on your final score at the end of the run. Score high
enough and you can get a 99.9 pretty much no matter what you do. Of course,
using the smae tricks over and over makes it tougher to score high but it can
be done.
I can remember struggling in THPS1 to get gold at Roswell (the secret level),
because I simply couldn't score high enough to do it. I'd come into the third
run with 91 and 92 or something and worry about making it (it was luck,
depending on how the game scored the other skaters). Even 2 years later, after
all that practice, I've only gotten a 99.9 once or twice on that level. In
contrast, in the final competition level in THPS3 (Tokyo), you can bust out
600,000-800,000 points in a single combo and get 99 and change easily. Anything
less than like a 96 in the competitions either means you really suck or you're
not trying (or you're wasting time getting stat points and finding the secret
deck). They might as well hand you the gold medals for all the difficulty
involved in obtaining them. So considering how easy it is to score million
point runs, they should have made the score goals much, much higher.
I also didn't like the new trick system. In THPS2, all the special moves (and
alternate flip, grab, and liptrick moves) were available but you had to earn
enough cash to get them. In THPS3, you open new moves by winning contests.
Thing is, you don't some of the basic moves from THPS2 (like Tony's heeflip
varial to lein which I always thought was a cool move, as well as being good
for getting big points since you could hold it while you spun) until you finish
the Tokyo level. And by that time you really don't need it cuz its time to move
to another character and start over.
Which is part of the problem too, it gets tedious replaying all the levels with
every character over and over again (both THPS1 and 2 had this problem as well
but it didn't seem as bad for some reason). The PS2 version gets around this by
putting stuff in different places on the level, so there's some replay value.
Of course, the limits to the PS1's power prevented this which isn't really the
programmers fault.
And now, the really big problems. As most probably know, Neversoft (who did the
first 2 games) shipped out THPS3 development for the PS1 to Shaba games, who
made Grind Session (one of the many THPS ripoffs). Now, I played two different
demos of Grind Session and I thought they both sucked. Not just because they
were blatant ripoffs of THPS, but because they were bad ripoffs. The controls
were loose, the skaters were floaty, and the level designs were garbage. You
couldn't pull off special tricks consistently and the controls were more random
button pressing than anything. Maybe Shaba got it together for the final
release but I'll never know because I won't even spend the $5 to rent the
thing.
Now, given the 'quality' of Grind Session, I'm not sure why Neversoft let Shaba
do the PS1 version. Maybe they figured Shaba could do a basic conversion of the
PS2 game since they had done a skateboard game. I don't know. But I think
Neversoft made a mistake in letting anyone else work on the game. Yes, I know
they had to so they could put their efforts into the PS2 version and have both
released at the same time. But, like the old saying, if you want something done
right, do it yourself. Letting another company, much less one that did a bad
THPS ripoff, do the game was a near guarantee that it wouldn't live up to the
previous games.
But I think Shaba dropped the ball. First off, the controls in THPS3 aren't
even as good as in THPS2. Yeah, all the controls are the same but its just not
as tight, you don't pull off special moves as consistently (and I say this as
someone who can play THPS1 and 2 and pull off ridiculous combos on autopilot
while talking on the phone) and it gets annoying when you hit left/right square
to get a special flip and end up doing the right square grab instead. This is
unfathomable to me ; they should have used the same code from THPS3 and the
controls should have been identical.
Also, to my eyes, the graphics aren't as good as in THPS2. Maybe I'm just
getting old, but they look grainier to me (you can't even tell what some of the
special moves actually are, Tony's double kickflip to indy comes to mind ; the
liptrick specials are the same way you can't tell what they are supposed to
be). There is also some problems with clipping and such, more than in THPS2.
Like with the controls, this makes no sense. All Shaba had to do was use the
same game engine (and program the revert since that was the only real addition)
as in THPS2, and it would have been at least as good. Maybe it wouldn't have
been better but it sure shouldn't have been worse.
By a similar token, Shaba changed the excellent THSP2 interface completely. And
the changes made it much more of a hassle to navigate the game as far as I was
concerned. This was especially true of the trick assignment. They changed from
a nice readable big font from THPS2 to a tiny little font similar to what they
used in Grind Session (did I mention that I thought Grind Session, the demo at
least, sucked). Yeah, fine, I'm old and have crappy eyes but there was no
reason to change the fonts. Once again, why they didn't just use the THPS2
code, and felt the need to change stuff is beyond me.
As well, parts of the game simply feel unfinished (hopefully what I'm about to
write about isn't a spoiler for anyone). For example, one of the cheats from
THPS2 is the Skip to Restart, which lets you start at different points of the
level. Two comments. First, in THPS2, the Skip to Restarts were all named and
the name told you where it would put you. In THPS3, they are all Skip_Restart
A, Skip_Restart B which is just idiotic). Also, unless its just my copy that's
tweaked, Shaba wrote glitchy code (again, why when they could just use the
THPS2 code from Neversoft). When I use the Skip to Restart, parts of levels
disappear and what's remaining gets fogged up. So I have to quit back to the
main menu and reload the level. Yes, it's merely time consuming and annoying
but it shouldn't be in a 'finished' game in the first place. That kind of
glitchy code is just unacceptable (unless it's just my copy in which case,
nevermind).
Additionally, places where you should have gotten something (like an end movie)
for your effort, there is.....nothing. Zip, zilch, nada, the big goose egg. So
whereas everything you completed (like the horrible Gap List which you had to
complete to get Private Carerra in THPS2) got you something for your efforts
(when you finished the game with Private Carerra you get a new movie), this
isn't the case for THPS3. Its like Shaba just wasn't original enough to think
of anything cool to put in the game. Which makes all your hard work seem pretty
much wasted. Again, I'm old, and I'm beyond feeling a basic sense of
accomplishment or pride for running the secret characters through the game,
making it my 14th time through, getting 100% with them, and getting nothing for
my efforts. If I'm going to put in the 45 minutes of effort to 100% every
level, gimme something. Getting nothing harkens back to the days where Apple
computer games said 'You are the winner', , , and that was
it.
Then there's the Gap list in THPS3. Like in THPS2, finding every gap nets you a
secret character (I won't tell you who it is, I imagine everyone knows
already). But finding them all was more an effort in tedium than anything fun
(admittedly, THPS2 shared the same problem). But, worse than that are that some
of the gaps are a combination of stupid, silly, or just plain illogical. The
''Why are you here'' gap in the Foundry comes immediately to mind. There's not
even consistency in the Gap listings. For example, in one of the levels, one of
the gaps is clearly listed as a wallride gap. Fine. But in another level, two
of the gaps which turn out to be wallrides are listed as 'Other gaps'. I'm
sorry but what the heck is an 'Other gap'? That anyone found some of these gaps
(and I thank many of the people on the message boards at Gamefaqs for their
efforts, although I did make my share of contributions) is beyond me. Also, the
liptrick gaps from THPS2 (that were sort of fun to find) are missing, I guess
Shaba couldn't think of any although there were plenty of places to put them.
Another example, the park editor. Ok, I never use the one in THPS2 (not that
interested in making my own parks) but THPS2 came with a combination of several
dozen premade parks. Yes, they were much smaller than the main levels but they
gave you some more replay value because some of them had some fun stuff to
skate on and were pretty well done. THPS3 comes with pre-made parks as well.
But they are the same pre-made parks as in THPS2. Which gets a big 'You've got
to be kidding me!' as far as I'm concerned. I guess playing them again with the
revert is something but I don't intend on bothering. I guess the guys at Shaba
were either too far behind schedule, too lazy, or too uncreative to make any
new parks to play for once you got bored with the main levels.
The character editor was made more extensive too (more choices of people, hair,
etc) but I could personally care less about it. I made a character and finished
the game with him, just to finish the game with him. Making him look like me
just isn't that big of a deal.
And I guess finally, the game simply feels sort of old and worn out. Yes, fine,
there are new levels, new moves, and a new trick (the revert). But beyond that
it seems like more of an expansion pack to THPS2 (if they'd released an
expansion pack of new levels running on the Neversoft THPS2 code, it would have
been a better game, even lacking the revert). And its an unfinished expansion
pack at that. That is, THPS2 felt like a fairly large increase in game over
THPS1. The graphics were much improved, the manual added a lot to the gameplay,
and there was more secret stuff. THPS3 felt like a rehash of THPS2 but with
many steps backwards.
Now, with that said, would I recommend buying it? Yeah, probably. Its fun for a
bit, but just doesn't seem to have the same zip as THPS1 (which I intend to go
back playing until I get my PS2) or THPS2. And, as stated, I will be getting
the PS2 version of THPS3 and playing all the way through that one. I can't
imagine its any worse than the PS1 version and hopefully it will give me my
next fix until I'm ready to tackle Metal Gear Solid 2.
Oh yeah, final score or whatever. Maybe a 5 out of 10. I don't think it's
awesome like many, but I don't think it totally sucks (Grind Session, based on
the demo might get a 1.5 if that). It just could have been better
If you have the lyrics to any of the songs that I do not have, please send me
them. I will be sure to give you credit.

A.F.I: The Boy Who Destroyed the World
------------------
Once there was a boy who had vibrant glow, but as it goes, someone took it from
him.
One day through the rain I heard him meekly moan, he said "Will you wrap your
arms around me as I'm falling?" Remember when we were all so beautiful? But
since then we've lost our glow. They said it hurt their eyes but he would never
know that they were filled with regret as their own dissipated. He said, "I now
feel more desperately alone, even though they wrapped their arms around me as
I'd fallen." They said it hurt their eyes, but he would never know that they
were claiming regret as their own...
as their own dissipated.

Think of all the things I do
And I stilll hold the thought of you
With someone else I know it's true
So far away
And I can only hold my breath
And start to die a lonely death
With you and me and all the rest
So far away
Don't say I told you so
One thing you'll never know
You're not the same
You've changed
I don't need you anyway
You're not the person that I believed in yesterday
You're not the same
You've changed
I don't need you anyway
You're not the person that I belived in yesterday
I can't hold it back you see
I know it all comes back to me
You must have practiced hard to be
So far away
Never wanted me to know
Just write me off I let you go
And now there's more for you to know
So far away
Don't say I told you so
One thing you'll never know
You're not the same
You've changed
I don't need you anyway
You're not the person that I believed in yesterday
You're not the same

Something's missing anyway
You're not the person that I believed in yesterday

With my perceptions in a mix
Down twenty miles through the sticks
To the cloudy town of Hellview: Population 96
Excessive vacancy, well maybe
In the shadow of an eye
All the strangers pass right through
Where the rules just don't apply
At the fork turn left a store
But on the right stay free from sight
'Cause 96 quite bitter beings
Like to stack the bodies high
The only way to ever leave is
Overflooded by the storm
And entanglement in Hellview
Brings you fear in fifty forms
They've deleted all the tourists
At the bottom of the lake
And not one supports the cause
To leave the blood stay in the veins
Here, three miles back is where we are
All we ever wanted was an answer
Civilized are close but way too far
All we ever wanted was an answer
Footprints giving clue to where we are
All we ever wanted was an answer
Civilized are close but way too far
All we ever wanted...

------------------
It's important to practice good hygiene
At least if you wanna run with my team
I'm bout to get into some shit that I've seen
This fool's breath, I mean so bad it'll melt your ice cream
They say don't say nothing if you can't say nice things
Sittin too close to him it burned(?) like my eyes sting
I try to be subtle, hand him a stick of gum
I was a victim of breath on him
Running his yap about what sets he from
Gotta get some gum gotta get him some
He turned it down, his teeth was brown
Excruciating for him and it was a new sensation
I had to ask the dope to pass the soap
Cuz his toe had the sniff of crustaceans
Or bathrooms in a bus station
He had a can of Olde E and some raisins
Amazing... head to toe B.O.
He didn't know, used to the fragrance
Just as the days went without bathing
He felt manly and not like a maiden
He had one dread, and fungus
Said he worked on peoples' toilets with plungers
Girls let the guy you were with ????
So guys take your cue from this number
[CHORUS] (x2)
You gotta wash your ass, if you must
You gotta wash your hair, if you must
You gotta brush your teeth, if you must
Or else you'll be funkyyyyyyyy
Now at class you need total concentration
But there's kids in the back holdin conversations
Crackin on each other, and neither were poster boys
Both of em smell like the type that soap avoids
Coast and Joy, they leave their absence
One's fool's feet smelled like it struck some matchsticks
Brimstone, girls would never bring him home
I was laughin, then his friend raised his tone
And said, "Bud(?) you rolled all over yourself" "yeaaa"
I know some people your ass should be submerged
Like you need to deal with water cuz you smell like a turd
Wanna cap get some courage, your feet smell lurid
Well look it up
And while you're at it, get a cup
And squeeze the sweat out your sweatshirt and drink it or gargle
You get our vote for most stinkiest
That nigga started thinkin of s***, said I was frail
I said he was stale
Underarms is ripe
Undergarments tight, about to leap out your holy sweats
And we holdin bets, and after this I'm gonna collect
Nigga check, yourself
Respect yourself
And wash your motha****** body 'fore your sweatshirt melt
Like radioactive, no lady find you attractive
The funk got you captive
You don't need a map bitch
[CHORUS] (x2)
You gotta wash your ass, if you must
You gotta wash your hair, if you must
You gotta brush your teeth, if you must
Or else you'll be funkyyyyyyyy

House of Pain: I'm a Swing It
------------------
I'm a swing it
Watch me bring it
To the next level
The graphic devils
Gettin' funky like the Nevilles
Brothers from the bayou,
So why you wanna trip
Just play the sideline kid
And wait for me to trip
'Cause I can feel it in the air tonight
But yo I'm not Phil Collins
I'm more like Henry Rollins
'Cause I search and destroy
Retoy with the plot
Tryin' to get what I got
Ya might get shot
Hot damn I'm a slam ya like ONYX
Then teach ya how to write a rhyme
Like hooked on Phonics
Mother Goose ain't got shit on me
'Cause I get loose at the jam and wreck the whole party
I make em' jump and mosh
Oh my gosh
There slamin in the pit
When I'm kickin my shot
They're buggin at the eyes
'Cause I got mad styles
And ain't a damn thing funny
I get money in piles
Some people thought I died
That's just a rumor though
Others thought I fell off
But now I'm numero uno
Dos not cuatro
word to Kool Kieth
I'm a break up your teeth
When I die (die)
Bury me (me)
Hang my balls from a cherry tree (tree)
Let them get ripe and take a bite
And if they don't taste right then don't blame D (D)
You need to quit swingin
The styles that I'm bringin
The funk knuckle dragon
The kids on the wagon
I'm not the 12 stepper
Don't play me like a lepper
My mic sounds nice
But it's not Salt-n-Pepa
Well it's the man with the plan
To get all your skins
The tip of my dick is where the line begins
So hoe's form a line
Take off that swine
Strip your ass butt naked
Let's see if you can take it
'Cause I'll make you feel...
LIKE A NATURAL WOMEN!
'Cause I keep it comin'
I'm the Everlastin'
Free style assasin
My soul and my goal is to bring a little passion
To your girl's life like the Daily Sun
Throw her down on the bed
And tie her up wit ropes
I'm just another rager with a Dairy Face
Punk motherfuckers beef and rhyme my race
You need to step back kid and give me some space
So I can cold spark the party when I'm rockin the place
Danny Boy's arrivin'
I Stand six five and a half, don't laugh kid
The outlaw biker with my big shit kicker
On a highway to hell
'Cause I never tell
Well it's the funk back breaker
We heat it up like Jamaica
Don't bring your woman to the party cause I'll take her
Hit the deck 'cause I'm down with the Hoolis
I got a trunk full of funk like the groovy doolies
I'm not the man but I'll asked who was he
Quick's hot the hair do just like Ruth Buzzy
Runnin' 'round town like ya been to jail son
But ya hit the swap meet to get your hair and your nail done
Get off my sack
'Cause your shit is wack
Ya dis me and I'm a dis ya back
I'm a swing it (X4)
Uh-huh, whatchu thought? Uh-huh, we was done?
Uh-huh, whatchu thought?! Yeah, yeah
Yeah, whatchu thought? Uhh, uhh, uhh
Yo, yo, back again! What's that? Back again!
What's that? Word! C'mon
[Nyce]
A North Face and skully hat don't MAKE YOU A THUG
A army suit, a pair of Timbs don't MAKE YOU A THUG
An ill mug and a gat don't MAKE YOU A THUG
A real thug is a thug that's HUSH!
[KRS-One]
Yo, yo, yo, check it, check it
Let us begin, KRS, winnin again, KRS-One did it again
KRS bigger than them, look at them they bit it again
I think my gun just gonna start clickin again
Click-clack, I always spit back
Anybody call my name I go get that
In fact we draggin 'em out, to a deserted route
The teacher returns, you must learn, the word is out
No doubt highly respected, Front Page Records
Off the hook, yet still connected
Are you teachin yourself, teachin yourself?
I'm like history repeatin itself
"Criminal Minded", you've been blinded again
Lookin for my style you can't find it again
You can find these others that may sound like Kris
but when it comes to the hands they don't get down like Kris!
They never ran up in the clubs with a hundred thugs
Never had the respect of Crips and Bloods
Never knew B.O., they never knew Big Pun
They never battled MC's, they never bust they gun
They don't know that, all they know is that show DAT
That's Digital Audio Tape if you don't know that
Now go back and get my name correct
'fore I snatch that platinum from 'round your neck
[Nyce]
A doo rag a platinum chain don't MAKE YOU A THUG
A fat ride with chrome don't MAKE YOU A THUG
That tough guy talk don't MAKE YOU A THUG
A real thug is a thug that's HUSH!
[KRS-One]
Word, yeah yeah, uh-huh, yo
Yo, yo, yo (hit 'em Kris!)
What mean the world to me? H-I-P, H-O-P
And S-I-M, O-N-E
And G-O-D, I stay low key
I go down to hell, and slap up Satan
Then return to heaven, where Scott LaRock is waitin
Resurrection, just like my brown complexion
when I speak, I don't need protection from the heat
I walk these streets and I'm quick to hit first
Throw on any beat I'll be quick to spit first
and rip town, I take one look around
And all you hear is, "Get down, get down, get down!"
Knowledge Reigns Supreme, I stay on blast
That's why these rappers want me to go on last
That's the truth, that's the fact, that's the deal
Forget sex appeal, my tech is real
And my rep is real, K-R-S
Woo-woop-woop! That's the sound of E-M-S
The rag on your head, it best stay white
Cause I can turn that red in a mintue a-ight?
Now go back and get my name correct
'fore I snatch them diamonds from 'round your neck
Once again, get my name correct
'fore I snatch that platinum from 'round your neck
[Nyce]
A North Face and skully hat don't MAKE YOU A THUG
A army suit, a pair of Timbs don't MAKE YOU A THUG
An ill mug and a gat don't MAKE YOU A THUG
A real thug is a thug that's HUSH!
A doo rag a platinum chain don't MAKE YOU A THUG
A fat ride with chrome don't MAKE YOU A THUG
That tough guy talk don't MAKE YOU A THUG
A real thug is a thug that's HUSH!
[KRS-One]
Yeah.. yeah.. yo, yo, yo
To all my heads who wanna see an improvement
in hip-hop culture, join this movement
We need more glocks than my man Freddie Foxxx
The knowledge I spit to the click it don't stop
That hardcore God-core, ready to start war
Rock more shock more top your pop tour
I'm sure I'll drop the grade to zero
When the teacher return, I don't chase DeNiro
Like where yo? Where yo? They livin in fear yo
It's a jungle sometime, but I got my spear yo
The album's called "Sneak Attack", that's what it is
KRS-One spittin facts to kids
[Nyce]
A army suit, a pair of Timbs don't MAKE YOU A THUG
That tough guy talk don't MAKE YOU A THUG
An ill mug and a gat don't MAKE YOU A THUG
A real thug is a thug that's HUSH!
A doo rag a platinum chain don't MAKE YOU A THUG
A North Face and skully hat don't MAKE YOU A THUG
A fat ride with chrome don't MAKE YOU A THUG
A real thug is a thug that's HUSH

Motorhead: Ace of Spades
------------------
If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man
You win some, lose some, it's all the same to me
The pleasure is to play, it makes no difference what you say
I don't share your greed
The only card I need is
The Ace of Spades
The Ace of Spades
Playing for the high one, dicing with the devil
Going with the flow, it's all a game to me
Seven or eleven, snake eyes watchin' you
Double up or quit, double stakes or split
The Ace of Spades
The Ace of Spades
You know I'm born to lose, and gambling's for fools
But that's the way I like it baby, I don't wanna live forever
And don't forget the Joker
Pushing up the ante, I know you wanna see me
Read'em and weep, the dead man's hand again
I see it in your eyes, take one look and die
The only thing you see, You know it's gonna be
The Ace of Spades
The Ace of Spades

Ozomatli: Cut Chemist Suite
------------------
Tuna the smoke-jumper, packin my oral cannon
bustin from Okinawa, Japan to Laurel Canyon
swallow flows, we turning like plush tires
mellow intros lyrics be burning like brush fires
spreading vocal leprosy, using discrepancy
lyric weaponry lessens your chances of testing me
stop and freeze m.c.’s, I block atrocities
true philosophies from the lips of black Socrates
the pocket-penciler in your peninsula
killing Dracula mc’s who bit from my vernacular
I can back it. The ill scene we occupy
no lullaby, got you high, when I rock a fly
verse, for my people, let me breath slow
give a heave-ho, and stimulate your cerebral
system, Cut Chemist grip the fader
Tuna the group debater
we murder you duplicators
cuz I'm an aristocrat, ghetto diplomat
and I'm blessed with a gift for rap
They call me mister antagonistic, drastic
comin from a place where these cops get their assed kicked
the last trick unified was the cornerstone
but now a lyric pistol to the dome is how we warn a clone
born alone, the strength of god makes my mission higher
they found a liar dead, strung up with fishin wire
the mystifier packin vocal artillery
makin lovely word connections like Chuck Woolery
the cool in me, I’ll make your block turn on one rhyme
electrifyin like some nocturnal sunshine
the planetary pioneer and his mixer
Cut Chemist, Chali 2na spittin scriptures
paintin pictures, even sisters adapt cuz
we take it back like chiropractors
actors on wax make worse for real mc's who worth your while
so they search for me
cuz I'm an aristocrat, ghetto diplomat
and I'm blessed with a gift for rap
Hey ho, let's go Hey ho, let's go
Hey ho, let's go Hey ho, let's go
They're forming in straight line
They're going through a tight wind
The kids are losing their minds
The Blitzkrieg Bop
They're piling in the back seat
They're generating steam heat
Pulsating to the back beat
The Blitzkrieg Bop
Hey ho, let's go
Shoot'em in the back now
What they want, I don't know
They're all reved up and ready to go

Red Hot Chili Peppers: Fight Like a Brave
------------------
Fight Like A Brave
All you slingers and fiends
hide behind your rocks
put down your guard
I'm not here to box
this is no showdown
so throw down your guns
you see it doesn't matter
where you come from
you could be from park ave
or from a park bench
you could be a politican
or a bitchy princess
but if you're lookin' for a fist
and you're lookin' to unite
put your knuckleheads together
make a fist and fight
not to your death
and not to your grave
I'm talking about t hat freedom
fight like a brave
fight like a brave
don't be a slave
no one can tell you
you've got to be afraid
If you're sick-a-sick'n'tired
of being sick and tired
if you're sick of all the bulls***
and you're sick of all the lies
it's better late than never
to set-a-set it straight
you know the lie is dead
so give your self a break
get it through your head
get if off your chest
get it out your arm
because it's time to start fresh
you want to stop dying
the life you could be livin'
I'm here to tell a story
but I'm also here to listen
no I'm not your preacher
and I'm not your physician
I'm just trying to reach you
I'm a rebel with a mission
fight like a brave
don't be a slave
no one can tell you
you've got to be afraid
fight like a brave
don't be a slave
no one can tell you
you've got to be afraid
I'm here today to pump up the uplift mofo party plan
a plan based on a band, a band based on a plan
there should be no.....in the land of lands
it's a hollywood jam
You say you're running and you're running
and you're running afraid
you say you ran across the planet
but you couldn't get away
the fire in your brain
was driving you insane
you were looking for a day
in a life that never came
so don't tell me that
I've got to take a number
cause I've been to that doctor
and believe me that's a bummer
here's a one of a kind
convention of the mind
and don't forget to mention
that it doesn't cost a dime
come as you like
and leave any time
and one more thing
you know it doesn't have to rhyme
fight like a brave
don't be a slave
no one can tell you
you've got to be afraid...

Rollins Band: What's the Matter Man
------------------
1996, the Disfunctional member of the Alkohaliks family
It's XZIBIT, Bring it live, one time, like this
Verse One
Sometimes I wonder if it's all worth my while
Xzibit stay versitile
with Million Dollar lifestyle
and I can feel it as a child growin' up
the n***** that were real and the n***** that were scared as f***
that's why Xzibit only roll with a chosen few
You ain't really real, I can tell when I look at you
So ease off the trigga talk, you ain't killin s***
it's not affecting me or the n***** that I'm chillin with
I don't believe the hype or buy a Woof ticket
N**** you make a gang of noise and never seem like a cricket
I guess that's why we never kick it
a lot of n***** are soft and get tossed tryin to f*** with the liquid
How many n***** do you know like this?
Also claimin that they're riding but they really turn b****
It don't make sense
Either you're a soldier from the start
or an actor with a record deal tryin to play the part
like dat
Chorus:
It's a shame
n***** in the rap game
only for the money and the fame
EXTRA LARGE
It's a shame
n***** in the rap game
only for the money and the fame
Paparazzi (2x)
Verse Two
I don't need no lights no cameras
just action god dammit
never no superstar
I'm more like a planet
so my composure is kept while others start to sweat
A merchant from the fog with my f****** up dialogue
try to live high on the hog leaves you bankrupt
and n***** you spent it on, would not give a f***
now that's deep, how deep, It's deeper than Atlantis
Home of the scandalous
Big Bad Los Angeles
Dangerous, Vandelous
Yo, not to be trusted
so how the f*** is you hard
not being scared by the boulevard
I'm pulling that card and sayin Gin muthaf******
flowin like liquid, soak it in muthaf*****
I'm breakin it down, my sounds, so crowds are like deaf
from the West
puttin whole counties to the test
it's all in perspective
Breaker one-nine copy
this is for the n***** gettin caught up in the Paparazzi
Chorus
Verse Three
N***** smoke stress and cross dress
but I just play the back
others going through schemes and pipe dreams
for a contract
real tightly rolled, f*** 'em all how I feel
I made a cool half mil
before I had a record deal
there for you look and stare like it's magic
too much of anything can make you an addict
when devils be startin static, forgot the automatic
I set it off straight, I spread hate, then I vacate, but wait
who dare to cross this path
yo, I do ya like math
cut with glass, make a blood bath
so on behalf of all n***** I get drunk with
smoke a lot of ***** with
I dispose of your punk s***
keep it all in perspective
Carbon Copies gettin caught up in the Paparazzi
Coming hard core looking like a gangster bitch, Trying to front like you ain't
rolling filthy rich Laguna Hills you were born and raised. But you¹re claiming
South Central is where you spent your days. Coming out hard talking crazy,
Knowing in your mind that you really don't fit. Standing up straight with a
ganster lean, Talking ganster slang about what you seen. Take a chance kid,
don't fall down hard again. You better think twice before you come at me Right
through your dome I can clearly see Hey little dog, you gonna bark all day?
Cause toe to toe, in the ring, is where I play. So you better step back and
check yourself, Stop fronting and just be yourself Cause no one cares what set
your claiming, Till someone grabs their gun and starts their aiming At you!
Tripping out cause you got no clout Cause it ain't about how hard you are Try
using your brain and you will go far. Be true to the color that you were born
with Not the color that you're adorned with, So keep it real and always be true
And be yourself in all that you do. Stand up tall and get some respect And
always remember, keep yourself in check
