Eric Sparrow the kind of guy who mains bottom tier in fighters, says it's the characters tier is why he lost, and brags about beating you with a bottom tier if he does win
Fair play to Woolie, he did terribly at first with the wallplant but pulled through in the end. I can respect that. Plus he wasn't bitching out the game either and that goes a long way in my book.
Well it’s good because this isn’t really a flaw of the game design. He’s literally holding down x the entire time cause he’s always moving full speed. It is irritating to watch 😢
sokumo tanaka Well we need it to establish the scene later in the game where Eric's severed head tries to steal Woolie's body. Otherwise that would just look silly.
N00BSYBORG "Damn you Eric, how many cars did you burn to get into this tournament?" "How many rails have you grinded in your life?" "SPAAAAARRRROOOOWW!"
Eric Sparrow's transformation into a villain in a nutshell: *THE BIG ERIC SPARROW AM WINNING AGAIN! I AM THE GREETEST! NOW I WILL SPABOTAGE WOOLIE'S CAREER, FOR NO RAISEN!*
Eric is worst than FoF. In the end of the day that guy just wanted money and genuinely liked Freq, in a weird way. Eric is just fucking with little Woolz even thought he got what he wanted, after fucking Woolz up to get it.
Because the main character is better then him in every way and he knows it from the start watching him do all the sick skating around town while he shits his pants from drug dealers.
Hey Lil Wools. I boiled the kettle for coffee and forgot the sugar, milk and coffee around the city. Go pick them up for me before the water cools and I'll have to boil it again
This was still one of the most annoying missions. Even I had to figure out the dumb wallplant and slam into every rail under the bridge until I got lucky enough to line up with the wall. Jesus Christ Air ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
What kind of dystopian skater world is this? Lil' Wools needs to fight Eric Sparrow in a skating stand battle for dominance over the woolie hole. If only Lil' Punisher could join in on this epic battle, he is the Polnareff we need but not the Kakyouin we deserve.
Eric saw the promo video of the dude doing sick grinds without a board and said "ah this must be the group where all the behelit user go after they sacrifice their friends to become skating dark gods"
And thus as the scrolls foretold, Eric Sparrow will join others such as: Clint Dunn, David Cage, Vic van Lier, Bless and the Basking Shark in the league of villains to our noble heroes.
Have any medical institutions cataloged and begun studying this phenomenon where the Best Friends video game brains have just started falling out of their noses?
I'd like to think that Woolie is using some Skater Animus to relive his days as Lil' Woolz. His mistakes don't desync him because they actually happened, until Billy skip-snips him forward.
Matt should name his trick the "Graboids". It's a trick where you emerge from the half-pipe and grab your board, you then proceed to hold it to your face like you're eating a sandwich. You also have to be completely horizontal or vertical while in the air.
Is that kakashi's english voice actor playing Tod? Kakashi's really moved up in the world if he went from state board manager to one of the few interesting characters in Naruto.
I have a trick for you Matt. You do a sick ollie on a side walk and while in the air pull out a fire axe and you throw it in a pit, you can call it the "Downcoming"
GUYS. You really should get the secret tapes on screen or off it doesn't matter. Getting the tapes unlock bail videos and such that I think you guys would really enjoy.
I'd love to see a skating game with the art style of Afro Samurai and all the famous cameos are old man versions with grey hair and bears. And every cutscene ends with Tony Hawk storming off in his car.
When you know T.H.U.G this intimately, it's extremely frustrating to watch people come to false realizations of how to wallride for 2 minutes. but goddamn i love that they're playing this, it's a blast to watch people who are new play it
While he's getting the hang of it, Woolie should get into the habit of getting off the board instantly whenever he needs to re-orient yourself. Kinda counter-intuitive I know, but you save so much time over smacking into walls and falling down trying to get back into position. I think that ability alone is why THUG 1/2 were my favorite, so much easier to line up jumps and re-orient when you can just walk normally.
Yeah, and when you grind on the ralis, your deck is weeping blood, and when you do the Christ-Air, fuckin' God Hand appears, and they starts cheering for you.
Yoooooo! Woolsworth my man! You gotta jump when you reach the top of ramps and half-pipes instead of just coasting up them! You'll gt triple or quadruple the air you're getting now trying to go up ramps.
I'd like to think that this is the story of a guy who has super durability but doesn't realise it until someone points it out. What with the constant face plants, crashing, concussions, and the loss of what is probably gallons of blood.
Can you imagine what the reaction of a girl would be like when a stranger with pink hair pulls up on her in a flower cart saying "hey wanna go to a party"
the most frustrating part about Eric Sparows rise to power is anytime the story needs to explain how or why he achieves any of his Bull shit, the plot blankly looks back at you and says "who cares" while immediately going back to writing up new ways for this guy to make us all salty XD
If we're going into the territory of making new moves, I for one vote that we christen a new form of manual called the "Shun Goku Satsu", in which you do the one-legged Akuma pose.
I really really really want them to play Skate after this series is done, hopefully Skate 2 but maybe Skate 3 since it's more comedic and less serious.
Man, woolie has the best backstory of all the Best friends, super religious as a child, then a skater, football player, murderer, pie stealer.
but liams house arrest lore
Are these actually altenative universe of Woolies???
The Boi Hilbirt He used his Stand Woolie Over Heaven and combined all those into one reality.
You forgot race traitor
Race traitor, sympathizer of the Tamriel Emperor, rustler, Q-A Tester of Murdered: Soul Suspect...
"Take this cart and do whatever it takes to bring women back here."
This is how most kidnapping charges start.
"Hey, you're ok! GET IN!"
I actually thought the mission would be to lure the women with the flowers and then shanghai them to the party.
Eric Sparrow touches your laptop screen when he points at something.
This comment is underrated
(Enraged Pat sounds)
Eric Sparrow the kind of guy who mains bottom tier in fighters, says it's the characters tier is why he lost, and brags about beating you with a bottom tier if he does win
Eric Sparrow thinks Techies is the best Dota 2 hero
Screaming PHOENIX
I once shot a man for doing that.
I REJECT MY HUMANITY, WOOLIE! - Eric Sparrow
Fair play to Woolie, he did terribly at first with the wallplant but pulled through in the end. I can respect that. Plus he wasn't bitching out the game either and that goes a long way in my book.
Just annoying how he kept like jumping as he hit the wall rather than jumping at the wall.
This is why I prefer the best friends to the game grumps, they usually don't blame the game for their own faults... usually.
Well it’s good because this isn’t really a flaw of the game design. He’s literally holding down x the entire time cause he’s always moving full speed. It is irritating to watch 😢
Only cause I played this game a lot and wallplant is easy
If there isn't tons of fanart of Eric Sparrow with a behelit or putting on the stone mask by the time this LP's over then we've failed as a fanbase.
I REJECT MY SKATEBOARD LITTLE WOOLZ!!
N00BSYBORG "you're just a ramp on the line lil woolz, the line that leads to the vert ramp in the sky"
We don't need the mask to know eric rejected his humanity, when he just exist.
sokumo tanaka Well we need it to establish the scene later in the game where Eric's severed head tries to steal Woolie's body. Otherwise that would just look silly.

felixdaniels37 Eric is worse, but Vic is more loathsome.
on one hand this playthrough is gold. on the other, woolie and matt have dsp reading ability.
My new favorite Matt saying is " X is such a PS2 era thing", because it's so damn true
eric would be the kind of guy who unironically thinks griffith did nothing wrong
Like Pat?
Alucard .Tepes band of the sparrow
ocean lindgren Eric is the white sparrow.
Eric Sparrow is the kind of guy who calls Griffith an asshole, and then follows that up by acting exactly like Griffith.
the kicker about eric sparrow in these tony hawk games is that he as the skate skills of a pro but still choose to cheat... like why?!
It's like Sawamura in Hajima no Ippo. :P
Because the main character is better then him in every way and he knows it from the start watching him do all the sick skating around town while he shits his pants from drug dealers.
johnny40000
Because he's ERIC SPARROW
havent you been paying attention at all?
K0sm1cKid, SWIMlovesyou I was thinkin the exact same thing
Because he can always look better by cheating to make himself look better then he is. He's an opportunist that way.
Hey Lil Wools.
I boiled the kettle for coffee and forgot the sugar, milk and coffee around the city. Go pick them up for me before the water cools and I'll have to boil it again
"Jump into a wall and press Down X"
"OH I'M AN IDIOT I GOTTA WALLRIDE AND JUMP OFF"
Woolie why.
Zane Woolie can't read
And the spatial awareness! How many times did Woolie "look" for the instruments in the same locations?!
Zane Woolie? Why the Wallie?
Woolie why. Woolie plz.
This was still one of the most annoying missions. Even I had to figure out the dumb wallplant and slam into every rail under the bridge until I got lucky enough to line up with the wall. Jesus Christ Air ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
You're all so much better at video games than me normally, it's weird to watch Woolie be so bad at one I'm great at haha
What kind of dystopian skater world is this? Lil' Wools needs to fight Eric Sparrow in a skating stand battle for dominance over the woolie hole. If only Lil' Punisher could join in on this epic battle, he is the Polnareff we need but not the Kakyouin we deserve.
Unversed Hero thats not to far off on how the game actually ends minus lil punny
Eric saw the promo video of the dude doing sick grinds without a board and said "ah this must be the group where all the behelit user go after they sacrifice their friends to become skating dark gods"
Eric Sparrow was the one who rushed Tony Hawk Pro Skater 5.
And thus as the scrolls foretold, Eric Sparrow will join others such as: Clint Dunn, David Cage, Vic van Lier, Bless and the Basking Shark in the league of villains to our noble heroes.
Tony Hawk's Stand『Sk8er Boi』causes people to function under skateboarding rules!
Welcome to my skating world!
"The easy way to get what you want is to have the skill to do it. We all want things." - Woolie (AKA Lil Woolz), 2017
WOOLIE'S BANG BUS!
I mean, I'd watch it.
ilr "Nah girl,your hair ain't short enough. Get the fuck off of my bus"
It's just Woolie riding around telling people, "Yo, wanna play Mahvel. Shit's dope!"
Looks like more of a "Bump Cart" if ya know what I'm sayin'....
....cuz it's a cart... and it bumps into things.
Reality Kings!
Eric sparrow activate his behelit, sacrifise the teen titans and give birth to teen titans go.
slifer875 what would be his accolite form?
the "no me gusta" face in the powerpuff girls remake.
slifer875 true evil
Eric Sparrow actively sends Mr.Rodgers death threats
You could see the tiger and dragon roaring at each other behind Eric and Lil Woolz as they stared down.
It's never good when I want to take the controller away from Woolie and finish the mission for him. Still, love watching this LP.
Acid DROP THE TWO TOWERS
311 was a B-side job
7eleven was a part-time job.
411 was a burn center job
SW Falken Like Orthanc and Minas Morgul? Those two towers?
Skateboards can't melt steel beams!
This is without a doubt one of the most entertaining playthroughs they've done in a while.
She needs a 5000 point combo.
Woolie gives her 100'000 point combo.
You can't say he doesn't try.
woolie never fails to make this game look harder then it ever was
I love this LP so much, nostalgia factor is so high.
Woolie Makes the most simple tasks seem like building IKEA furniture.
Have any medical institutions cataloged and begun studying this phenomenon where the Best Friends video game brains have just started falling out of their noses?
This is my favorite current series of yours atm, loving the content, guys.
Sparrow is definitely the Dio of this story.
His stand is a skateboarding muscular bird-man.
I said "Skittles" when referring to "skills" for a good 5 years after this game came out.
I'd like to think that Woolie is using some Skater Animus to relive his days as Lil' Woolz.
His mistakes don't desync him because they actually happened, until Billy skip-snips him forward.
Matt should name his trick the "Graboids". It's a trick where you emerge from the half-pipe and grab your board, you then proceed to hold it to your face like you're eating a sandwich. You also have to be completely horizontal or vertical while in the air.
Every time Woolie doesn't ollie at the lip of a quarterpipe to get the extra height, my neck muscles tense up and I sweat a bit harder.
I've always loved the one bail animation where your shit splits in half and you punt it into the screen
Can't believe the Phantom Thieves snaked those instruments
The final battle of this game will be Lil Woolz and Eric Sparrow fighting with their stands.
Is that kakashi's english voice actor playing Tod? Kakashi's really moved up in the world if he went from state board manager to one of the few interesting characters in Naruto.
Oh god Woolie is doing that "slip up once and immediately restart" thing
Wowzer! An early upload?! This is hella sick!
There's always one at this time though.
But this is in the middle of the day, brosky! We normally have to wait til 9 pm to shred it up with Lil' Wools!
Christian Blaise It's Friday so fighting games at 9 tonight
MATS TRICK IS CALLED THE AXE TOSS!
It's where you toss your skateboard into the half pipe but you don't jump in after it.
Here's a mechanic I didn't expect Woolie to have trouble with. Wallplants are 100% critical to the future Tony Hawk games.
Lil Woolz, never stop bailing. That shit's hella tight.
I love that they're impressed by ladder tech. It's wholesome.
Eric Sparrow sacrificed an Orphan for more time on the clock to do sick Combos.
SO HERE I AM
DOIN' EVERYTHING I CAN
HOLDIN' ON TO WHAT I AM~
PRETENDING i"M A SUPERMAN!
RULES OF NATURE !!!!!
Can't get tired of that intro
I have a trick for you Matt. You do a sick ollie on a side walk and while in the air pull out a fire axe and you throw it in a pit, you can call it the "Downcoming"
GUYS. You really should get the secret tapes on screen or off it doesn't matter. Getting the tapes unlock bail videos and such that I think you guys would really enjoy.
Lil Woolz has some mad game to be pickin bitches up in a flower cart.
Eric Sparrow is the person that doesn't flush in public restrooms
I swear that collect the skaters challenge felt like Wollie was playing a dark souls game
Wow, I love how the later women swear they aren't that easy... by asking for slightly more creative skateboard tricks.
Rappers would spit till they lips was bleeding, then hit the cardboard and start windmilling for freedom.
I'd love to see a skating game with the art style of Afro Samurai and all the famous cameos are old man versions with grey hair and bears.
And every cutscene ends with Tony Hawk storming off in his car.
When you know T.H.U.G this intimately, it's extremely frustrating to watch people come to false realizations of how to wallride for 2 minutes.
but goddamn i love that they're playing this, it's a blast to watch people who are new play it
*wall plant, pardon
I just really wish Woolie would treat jumping in Tony Hawk like jumping in a platformer. The whole thing would be a lot easier for him...
While he's getting the hang of it, Woolie should get into the habit of getting off the board instantly whenever he needs to re-orient yourself. Kinda counter-intuitive I know, but you save so much time over smacking into walls and falling down trying to get back into position. I think that ability alone is why THUG 1/2 were my favorite, so much easier to line up jumps and re-orient when you can just walk normally.
Would've thought the challenge involving jumping into walls would've been the one Woolie would've excelled at.
Seriously though, Behelit Skateboards sounds like the best skateboard line ever. Like, I want that to be a thing. Right now.
Yeah, and when you grind on the ralis, your deck is weeping blood, and when you do the Christ-Air, fuckin' God Hand appears, and they starts cheering for you.
Can we have Matt and Woolie solve spot the difference puzzles? They're ability to spot giant green fists is incredible
"Tony Hawk is the best downhill skiing, bobsled cruisin rastafarian of all-time" -Pat Mcfuckboiven
Woolie says he wants to go to a sick vert party, but honestly he just really wants to go to the Vortex Club party, and he'll warp spacetime to do it.
"There's a girl right there!" I said that completely in unison with you Matt. lmao
Yoooooo! Woolsworth my man! You gotta jump when you reach the top of ramps and half-pipes instead of just coasting up them! You'll gt triple or quadruple the air you're getting now trying to go up ramps.
Emulator slowdown is enough to overcome Google's copyright detection
Woolie's bang bus is just an old station wagon he found where the homeless people sleep outside the woolie hole
I am 100% sincere when I say this is literally the worst Ive ever seen a veteran gamer play a videogame.
That wall jump mission was the bane of my existence back in the day
I'd like to think that this is the story of a guy who has super durability but doesn't realise it until someone points it out. What with the constant face plants, crashing, concussions, and the loss of what is probably gallons of blood.
That ending got me surprised too! THUG is basically an action RPG at this point.
18:32 Eric Sparrow's house...in New Jersey? The place that probably hundreds of miles away by now?
Dude, they actually did a pretty legi rendition of Balboa Park here o.o! This is awesome!
Eric has joined the team and become the 5th member of the Skate Hand!
Big green indicators of where you're supposed to go- it's Woolie Vision, straight outta Woolie's Edge
Am I the only one sitting here thinking: JUMP! OLLIE, BONELESS, DO SOMETHING TO GET HEIGHT! When woolie is doing the Spine Transfer challenge?
Woolie is like the Dewey Finn of Tony Hawk games
Can you imagine what the reaction of a girl would be like when a stranger with pink hair pulls up on her in a flower cart saying "hey wanna go to a party"
the most frustrating part about Eric Sparows rise to power is anytime the story needs to explain how or why he achieves any of his Bull shit, the plot blankly looks back at you and says "who cares" while immediately going back to writing up new ways for this guy to make us all salty XD
I haven't played this game in 17 years but I'm confident id be way more competent at it than Woolie if I started playing.
Man, Woolie is jumping way too early for those wall plants
If Woolie can't do 5 wallplants, he would never finish THUG 2.
Chad Muska: Sick tricks out there, chocolate man!Lil Woolz: Chocolate?Chad Muska: Yeah, you know 'cuz you're…black.Lil Woolz: I'M HWHAT!?
20:31 That barricade... wow.
When you hear MF DOOM and SBF at the same time!
I'm calling it now: the plot twist in this game is when Eric pulls off his mask and is revealed to be Kenny.
Eric pulls out a gun and Tony Hawk runs him over with a skate board
"The Dave Meltzer of Skating"
lol
Woah Woah Woah....Little V did that intro? No wonder I love it so much. Was literally singing it at work.
I did everything I can.
Just hit the kick flip Woolie.
Woolie... you were finally doing so good in the last video which was, in real time, like 5min before this video started. WTF happened?
When Lil Woolz falls, he sounds like Lex Luger selling
If we're going into the territory of making new moves, I for one vote that we christen a new form of manual called the "Shun Goku Satsu", in which you do the one-legged Akuma pose.
5:35 I didn't know this until this let's play but the license plate on the minivan says, "We got yer NEW Used Minivan Right HERE!!!!"
Imagine a world where Woolie doesn't spin every time he does a trick and doesn't go flying in a random direction when he lands.
23:20 Like the Angel, by Rise Against!
I played this when it came out, and it's still one of my favorite songs.
