The issue I foresee is that they'll modernize the skater models and animations. The charm of th3 and especially th4 was the aesthetically pleasing, tall, balanced skater models and fluid, arcade-y trick anims. Without those the games lose their magic and replayability... Something that was likely a happy accident by NS. The chances of another studio understanding and replicating that is slim.
andy always makes these games look so easy, a week or two ago i came back to this game with my buddy and got absolutely demolished on trick attack. major props my man
This was so much fun to watch. It brought back memories of being 10 years old, and playing this for hours on end. Thank you for doing this Andy. You truly are a legend
I stopped playing THPS after 4, and never knew there was a quick turn mechanic. I literally learned how to do it today for the first time in my life in THPS 1+2. It's a fucking game changer.
Is this possible in the old games or only some after 4? I'm currently playing my old N64 copy of THPS2 and I'm curious if I'm missing something. One things for sure. I'm really wishing I could do a wall plant and even more importantly.. I wish I could level out my board after going up a quarter pipe. If there's a way to do either of these, I haven't found it yet.
When I was a kid, I remember sitting in awe and watching Andy for the first time as he combod for several minutes, racking up millions of points in what is STILL my favourite series of games. It makes me smile to drop in 17 years later and see him return and play these classic games again.... Respectfully, I think the latest remake pales in comparison to the feel of these classic PS2 titles (especially THPS4) - still - In the event the dev team decides to take on TH3/4 there's a SLIM chance that if they were to follow the original blueprints without taking any **ahem** creative liberties with the mechanics and aesthetics, they COULD strike gold... however, that would require a meticulous attention to detail and a reverence for the brilliant design of the games they'd be reproducing... and would you put money on that happening? Perhaps only Andy holds the candle by which the devs could see the nuances that made those two games look and feel as they do.... Without instruction from a veteran who can really put across how the balance and the fluidity of the originals made the games both great to play AND aesthetically pleasing, they could so easily make the sad mistake of creating another bland, polished, shiny HD remake with overly detailed, realistic models and physics, instead of revitalising the charmingly simple, fluid but crisp facets of these original arcade style games.
And I just saw Andy write in chat that THAW is his favourite TH game... that's _really_ surprising. Perhaps his having a greater hand in development explains why? Not sure about that one.
@@bLuemaNMKO You bet. I finally got a network adapter for my PS2 during THUG, but in 05 my console broke or something, and I had to move to PC. THPS3 was dying at that point though, TH4 and THUG PC were dogshit ports that you couldn't really play online with as I'm sure you know, so everyone was on THUG2. I never really stopped either..I still often play offline by myself lol.
I feel like Andy certainly knows if THPS 3+4 are in the making of being developed. There's no way he wouldn't have a hand in those games being remastered, seeing as how Tony Hawk respects his opinion so much. I never hear him speak about them being remade though... maybe because it really is happening, & he isn't allowed to spill the beans.
Just started playing the remastered and it took me back to my youth. I remember being better at the game lol I also have a lot more thps 3 memories than I knew. Hopeful for more remasters in the future.
Tony said that THPS 3+4 is coming but has said nothing about THUG 1+2 yet, instead he told he wants to "work on a new direction". Hopefully that means more THPS / THUG style games and not just something "super-arcade downhill jam" like Tony originally would have wanted from the whole series. Tony doesn't have a really good taste in games to be honest. His favourite map is Downhill Jam btw.
Omg never knew in my life how to open the aquarium in Zoo, then I heard the guy talk at 3:44:00 and it was instantly clear. As a kid, I could not speak English, but now… A secret has been revealed
I always felt it was weird THPS had a Tennis minigame before the ability to get off your board. The one thing that skateboarding has over other extreme sports like Snowboarding or BMX is that you can bail anytime by just jumping off your board. It should have not taken until THUG to let the player do that.
I just love how much you were complaining that half of Chicago’s walls are broken and can’t wallride them but you can literally wallie off the subway train in the Matt Hoffman challenge lmao seems legit
gotta play these through again after watching this. i did thps4 no stats earlier this year after seeing tylerlasagna and radrat do it. 'try not to boot' in carnival will have you throwing your controller REAL fast.
Dude same, all four of those are great, I do think that 3 and 4 is such a sweetspot for the series, but yeah the THUGs have that insanely addictive engine. Watching this, I couldn't help but realize how much heavy lifting wallplants did.
Man I miss playing these classic PS2 version of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 & 4! I’m so glad that they’re going remaster both 3 and 4 Tony Hawk pro skater games. Although, I don’t know if they’re going to remastered the PS1 version of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3&4 or remaster the PS2 version of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3&4. Either way, I think the PS2 version of those games did a lot better than the ps1 version because on the PS2 you don’t need to worry about having to deal with the fall damage unlike the PS1 version has. And most importantly, the iconic NPC’s with dialogues and animations are hilarious because I saw one of them named Ollie The Magic Bum did a front flip and it’s really funny on how these iconic NPC’s can make us laugh more easily. When I saw Ollie the magic bum, his voice dialogue sounded familiar to Derp Ssundee from Ssundee’s channel for those who don’t know who Ssundee is, and to those who don’t know who Ssundee is, he’s a youtuber that play’s Minecraft and Among Us and he’s a great youtuber with a good sense of humor that makes our day’s happier. If you wanna know where to find Ssundee, I’ll send you a link to him here. th-cam.com/users/ssundee But other than that, it’s great to see the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3&4 games being remastered for the latest gen consoles and the next gen consoles as well. Um... well.. not the latest gen consoles because they only last ten days or even fifteen days if I might be correct on ether of these days. But still! It’s great to see my childhood memories of these games become a reality for the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S and PC, or even the Nintendo Switch which I know a lot of you people have been requesting that since September 2020 and wanting that to happen ever since it was launched. So believe me, I know what you want and I know what you’ve requested. So don’t get your hope’s up and just keep your fingers crossed that it will happen and then it will happen. Ok? Good. So I’ll see you guys later! In a while crocodiles! 👋😀
It looks like emulated PS2 to me, you can see the PS buttons and memory card references during saving but you also see his controller inputs and the mouse come up over screen a couple times.
if they remaster 3+4 good luck getting me off the game
1+2 won game of the year and sold super well.... if they remaster 3+4 it would be a dream come true
Tony Hawk himself told that he wishes to remaster the whole series.
@Glockjaw So, using your logic, you think THPS 5 is better than 1+2 simply because it’s a new concept?
@Glockjaw 1+2 is essentially a rehash and 5 is a completely new game. 5 is what you’re saying you would prefer. How is that hard to understand?
@Glockjaw naw if they remaster 1+2 they might as well do 3+4 aswell honestly
Man I can't wait til they remaster these also

@@divinasi0n it was for me the sound design/effects tbh
@@tvph Dude, they even sound better. You're right.
@@divinasi0n like just doing an ollie was so satisfying because the sound lol
@@divinasi0n 1+2 already plays like 4. I see no issue.
I feel like Andy might have gotten burnt out lately on THPS 1+2 so it's nice seeing him be genuinely happy about playing this again
andy always makes these games look so easy, a week or two ago i came back to this game with my buddy and got absolutely demolished on trick attack. major props my man
also i miss the exploration/mini mission type gameplay rather than just a 2 minute collect-a-thon
Watched this over three sittings, great fun, thanks, can't wait to see more of the old gen THPS games streamed
thanks dude
@@andyTHPS no probs, after I watched this I checked your twitch, saw you had done more, and subbed to the channel:D

@@cxx23 It was introduced in 4 with L1+R1+down (down, down R1 in THPS 1+2).
Never knew about those flippy 180 wallrides before. Mind Blown!
thps 4 is my favorite for sure
I was always blown by how many goals the game offered. It had more than the previous 3 games combined.
Thank you Andy, those have been delightful several hours
🤗
Dude I didn't know you worked on THUG that's so cool! I've learned a lot from watching you play thanks for sharing with us!
Thanks for uploading the vods!
This was such a fun watch. I would love to see you play through Thug 1+2 to American wasteland and even Project 8 and Proving grounds so much.
He's done THUG 1+2 and THAW so far. You can watch those on twitch since they're not on youtube yet.

matt hoffman pro bmx, i must have lost countless hours to that game. I miss it so much
Such a shame you cant have the music playing... THPS 3 soundtrack was iconic
Thps3 is the Goat, period.

What blast from the past man. Seriously. At 1:31:00 I had Jamie's cross board IRL in HS. I'd definitely love to watch THUG too.
So many memories with 4 and that big ass duke Xbox controller
Now play THPS 5 next 😂
Would love seeing more of you playing these OG games! Just never pro skater 5.
Pro Skater 5 = Chopper Drop
35:02 Dude, I was as old as Andy is now when this game came out, that's how effing old I am.
Thumbs up for Starfox 64 mix intro!
You should do a playthrough of the PS1 version!
“Can we do the pro challenges with default stats?”
Have you seen Rad Rat’s zero stat run on this game?
gotta play these through again after watching this.
i did thps4 no stats earlier this year after seeing tylerlasagna and radrat do it. 'try not to boot' in carnival will have you throwing your controller REAL fast.
I butter my toast upside down. You figure that out what it means on your own because I’m not even sure myself
Eric sparrow = Tony hawk 🤯
Ok be never put two and two together
I'm waiting on the THPS 3+4 remakes, please take my money now...
Why do the games' sounds sound like they're pitched down? I noticed that on the reupload of the Shipyard line
Thps3 the goat
The memories
That intro music 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Andy I think that every tony hawk game should be remastered just a thought
OG Andy THPS shit
hey Andy do you know what is the name of the remix that plays from 4:24:44 till 4:28:00?
Are you playing these on an actual PS2 or on an emulator?
Is thps3 the first game in the series with the down left double tap 360 flip? Or is it still down down flip in that one
Wow epic!
NOKIA logo spotted @ Skater Island!
that snake run in kona might be my least favorite goal in the game lol
See I liked that 4 was a bit harder
I hope they remaster THUG 1 + 2 instead of Pro Skater 3 + 4...
I hope they remaster them all.
Dude same, all four of those are great, I do think that 3 and 4 is such a sweetspot for the series, but yeah the THUGs have that insanely addictive engine. Watching this, I couldn't help but realize how much heavy lifting wallplants did.
Does anyone know what the background music is? The remixes of video game music are cool
