@@isak8059 Everyone likes SKATE 3, but I started with SKATE 1 and I think it's a masterpiece. I even think the graphics are better, not to mention the best soundtrack of all 3 and the online was fun AF but didn't last long at all.
I still play skate 3 often and I’m wondering howling better can they make the mechanics. I’m really excited to see what they come forth with and deeply hope they don’t ruin it or regress. Skate 3 was many years ago, it’s only natural we expect something drastically better! Cmon skate 4 please be good!
i still remember getting the first thps and an N64 for christmas one year and being glued to the screen. all time unlockable character has to be jango fett
THPS got me into skating as a kid and the remaster got me on a board as an adult. Skater XL seems meh, Session feels like skateboarding. Tony Hawks Project 8 had some really dope slow mo flip stuff that I dug. I enjoy the content, thanks for making it!
@@ShredzShop I think so too. Also THPS was more family friendly. Skate and destroy was more sim like, had cops chasing you and had a pretty gritty art style 😁They asked Tony Hawk if he would be intrested about skate and destroy but he declined. You can still see the similarities with the main character Axl and old-school Tony 😁I found a lot of great groups because of that game for example A Tribe Called Quest.
Tony hawk ride was under rated. I was one of those 3000 in week 1 and I played it till the controller broke. Then started using the board as a carpet board
I totally forgot that I used to play 2Xtreme on the PS at my local electronic goods store. I was a little kid, so I thought it was cool :D Session is really great, I'm looking forward to the release in September
In Kingdom Hearts 2 they added the option to skateboard throughout some of the worlds. I always thought that was cool, my favourite bit is when Jack Sparrow calls your skateboard a plank on wheels. I don't remember if you could attack enemies or not with or on the skateboard. I forgot that some of the board designs in KH2 have wings? Or some weird design. I need to play again.
When THPS3 came out it was too much for my parents' computer to handle. I eventually got it running but only with grey textures and no colours at all. Still played through it all with every character and now it freaks me out to see clips of how the game actually looked like
I’m so glad you didn’t bash Disney extreme skate adventure. I played all of the Tony Hawk games besides that crappy one for the wii. I also played the Disney game and had ALOT of fun.
I remember after beating THPS I figured I'd order Thrasher: Skate and Destroy from the little catalogue in the back of their magazines. It was more difficult but once you got used to it I liked it way more than any THPS games. 3 xtreme was actually kind of fun, I was only like 10 at the time though. Woah I totally forgot about Grind Session and XGames, I enjoyed those too!
Just got done replaying my way through T.H.U.G 1&2 and American Wasteland for original Xbox. So one of those would be my favorite skating games. Probably either T.H.U.G. 1 or Wasteland. I did like the PS1 Xtreme games series. After the first one, they had two more games "Xtreme 2" & "Xtreme 3" - they were fun racing games. Where else can you race a Street luge against a BMX, Rollerblades and a Skateboard? Haha. Loved those games too but the Tony Hawk games changed the game.
I've actually gotten to play the alpha of skate 4. The controls are pretty much the same as skate 3 with slightly adjusted physics to make it feel smoother and a bit more realistic. The main thing they seem to be pushing is better multiplayer and advanced park creation tools. An even bigger map with lots of cool spots seems to also be in development. Can't wait for the beta.
You should have said that the Thrasher game on the PS1 was a fucking masterpiece. A skateboarding simulator of its time, challenging with a very steep learning curve, but satisfying as hell. Some great research here. Yours omitting it almost completely is so typical of this game's story.
720 was interesting and super ambitious, It had a Crazy Cabinet with very clean and Clear Graphics, the mid 80's had some really Crazy ideas been a bit of a Wild West.
Funny timing on this video, I've never played a skate game other than Skate 3 on the PS3 back in the day, but 2 days ago I was bored at work and downloaded True Skate and its a ton of fun! you said in this video all the mobile skate games suck (which may be true for the rest) but so far I've been kind of addicted ;) great content as always levi!
Yoo!! great video mate! It made me remember when I first played THP1. It was the year the game was released. Back home there was only 1 friend who had the Nintendo 64, so another friend and me were always go his place to play the game (intending to study in between games). We were all hooked for months, it was playing the game and then go skateboarding! Great content, I played until THP3.
Haha those are some awesome and nostalgic memories for sure! I remember all our friends meeting at a buddies’ house when he got an N64 and no one else could afford one!
Dude evolution skateboarding wasn't too bad. The only thing was you couldn't get off the board. It for the most part had the same missions as t.h.p.s and t.h.u.g. backyard skateboarding was not bad either but i was a kid. I remember in the one lego game you could either walk or skate. When you skated, lego radio played! My favorite will all ways be the original underground tho. Best sound track wasteland was pretty cool to with the free roaming maps
@@ShredzShop the funny thing was the main gameplay wasn't about skating at all. I can't remember the name of it but it was a computer game. But thats just how the lego man got around was on a skateboard. It indeed was pretty rad
I would say before skater xl comes in, there were a few indie games keeping skateboarding going between skate 3 and session, stuff like olli olli, and skatebird (which unfortunately launched after thps 1+2 after a long working small development team)
I loved playing pro skater 3 on my gameboy advance as a kid and i found tony hawk ride pretty fun with the skateboard controller didnt know it selled so poorly i remember getting it when it came out aparently im one of those 3000 people who bought it first week lol.
Could you guys make a video about the history of tech deck? Like I think that they are an important part of skate culture and got a lot of people into actual skateboarding and I can’t get over the fact that they use real board graphics of the biggest skate company’s out here, you know you’ve made it as a skate when your name in on a tech deck😂🫳🛹
A lot of people started skating just because of the Tony Hawk video game. It was Tony's idea to put other real pro skaters into the game instead of crazy game characters like the producers wanted. Which was genius, since people then were searching out their video parts and because they were street skaters like Muska, Kareem, Reynolds and Rodney in it, people actually felt compelled to try their tricks and start skating themselves, since it makes much more sense/is much easier to start riding a skateboard around your neighborhood than having to find a halfpipe and learning how to drop in.
THPS 1 ,2 ,3 , and Trasher skate and destroy are immortal and untouchoble - it's my youth era - you can't touch this like in that mc hammer song . and for the future of skateboarding video games , they should make a FPS game , so that when playing the player feels as if he were riding , you could play this game also in VR . But remember the best you can do is go skateboard in reality , support your local skateshop and subscribe to and support Shredz Shop.
@@ShredzShop Not only Skateboarding video games was lovely at that time - everything was lovely . I'm your brother's age , and for me, and I think that for most people of our generation it is obvious when it was the golden era - I started to ride in 1997 and for me the golden age will be forever from 1998 to 2003 . The first movie that my Mom bought me was 411 Issue No. 31 , and the second one was Transworld Feedback I grew up on all those movies .On all 411s starting with issue 31 , on all Trasnworld Videos, and the movies : Feedback , The Reason , Modus Operandi , i.e , Anthology Sight Unseen , In Bloom -they will always be to me what the Bible is to Christians .

1 - My God guys, THPS2 introduced the GOAT, The Godfather to the franchise. 2 - Session, the game, got a lot of playable pro skaters that you guys didn't mention like: Daewon Song, Dane Burman, Donovan Strain, Annie Guglia, Louie Barletta, Nora Vasconcellos, Ryan Thompson, Samarria Brevard and Torey Pudwill 3 - Bob Burnquist didn't appear in the third THPS game because he was in the new ESPN Skateboard game as a main character and cover. This game has one of my favorite skater from the late 90's, Rick McCrank.
I'm glad to see a video from you guys; I though, last night, that I hadn't heard from you guys for a coupla weeks. I take it you have been very busy. Im looking forward to this one. Keep up the good work "LiL'JpD."
Used to play 720 'realistically' on NES as a kid, lol. I stopped skateboarding when THPS came out, played the second one forever, sometimes until the early morning. Went on to the EA games for video skating, and was already thinking of trying it IRL again when my friend showed up with a deck one day asking if I could teach him to ollie. He lasted about a month before going on to less difficult hobbies, but I've kept with it ever since. I've played the Session and Skater XL games, but I just can't get over having to steer with the triggers so looking forward to the next-gen Skate game.
Thrasher skate and destroy was the shit back in the day, all the homies were obsessed with it. Was just so much more realistic than those, they need to make a sequel.
Its not exactly video game idea, but it would be sick to recreate some famous tricks from skate videos into virtual reality, so you could see how big drops/rails/stairs really are.
I had the Tech Deck app once on my phone, I honestly liked it! Yeah, it was no replacement for SKATE or THPS, but! At least my character could ride Hook-Ups decks in it.
Let me clarify I’ve never played the second one but the first one you should definitely check out if you can find both might not be hard I had them on the original PlayStation. Forgot to mention that they were PlayStation games
My favourite secret character is Doom Guy who's exclusive to the PC version of Pro Skater 3. you unlock him by putting in the cheat code IDKFA which is the unlock all weapons code in the original Doom You can find a skateboard in doomguy's Base in Doom Eternal, Perhaps his Cameo in the port is canonical!
I still can’t believe Thrasher Skate and Destroy was made by Rockstar, the game felt kinda creepy and terrifying when the cops start chasing you. Also Street Sk8ter had an awesome soundtrack! Grind Session had a soundtrack too with a great skater lineup, introduced me to Daewon Song. Skater XL is my favorite these days
I remember when I tried to play thrasher skate or die, but it was so damn hard, because of thps controls. I still have thrasher game somewhere. Other games that I have played are thps2, thps5 and that sucked balls, ofcourse skate 3 and the last one what I still play is skater xl... Keep up the content you freaks, I love it!!!!
I’m 24 for context even as a child this game was terrible but when I used to get my hair cut when I was like 8 the place used to let you play gamecube. They had this Disney Sports Skateboarding game. It makes the toy story one look like THUG
Love Big Brother! Bought some old mags from look lack library recently. We talk about doing a big brother vid, I just don't wanna get any of those dudes in trouble haha. With all the cancel culture, some of those guys have high up jobs at big companies.
THPS2 was my favourite - always started with Rodney Mullen. The newest remaster of THPS1/2 is great and love how theyve updated some of the levels (the abandoned decrepit mall 😂)
EA Skate was groundbreaking but also absolutely amazing and super fun to play. The new mechanics made it way better and more like skateboarding and not just spamming buttons for combos on THPS. People are still playing Skate 3 and heavily waiting for Skate 4 to drop.
I need y’all’s help. I’m trying to find pics or a way to get this deck I got for Christmas as a kid. I swear it was a Matt Beach deck. This would’ve been around ‘94-‘96 and I swear it had like a rose and some stained glass. I’ve been trying to find this deck
Hey are you from buffalo ny? I see the Sunday deck and that was my local shops name here. Jake Donnelly whose pro for real and Adidas rode for them. Great vid too!
I remember playing skate for the first time and was mind blown how much better it was than anything I had ever played. Still my favorite game ever. Even at 41 when/if skate4 comes out I’ll be going to my sons Xbox to play for sure 😂😂😂
I played so much Disney skate and I’m not a kid, it played just like tony hawk but the levels were so fun, Andy’s bedroom and his bathtub and sink and pizza planet, awesome!
IMO Tony Hawk's Project 8 was one of the more forward thinking games in the THPS series and doesn't get it's flowers much, probably because it was a release title for the PS3, but the PS2 version released a few weeks prior and was highly limited compared to the PS3 version. I remember most of my friends had the PS2 version because it came out first and when they got a PS3 they didn't get the better version of the game that didn't have load times to go between sections of the map and had highly upgraded graphics/performance. The weird slowmo nail the trick dual stick foot/board control mechanic was super sick and definitely was an interesting predecessor to EA's flickit controls (and honestly the SkaterXL/Session control systems with independent L/R foot stick control). Also I think there was something like the hall of meat stuff from the EA series as well.
@@ShredzShop Yeah totally, I think it released at a time where the formula was getting really stale, and they tried to switch it up a bit with American Wasteland, kinda blew it on a few things (like including BMX as a mandatory part of the game), then went the opposite direction with Project 8 trying to make a super skate-forward, less story/location driven game and folks didn't love it. There was also no real world influence on locations, they were more generalized, so I think folks missed skating classic spots in-game as well.
Yeah, I spend most of my board $ at the local skate shop. I like it, because everyone there skates, and there's always some kind of knowledge you pick up.
Thrasher Skate & Destroy was actually a good game for the time. It was a little slow but it was feeling way more realistic than THPS (at least that was what my group of friends would think)
I remember my friend had Skate for Wii. To do tricks you pretty much would just whip your wrist wildly around and and mash buttons. Still had fun on the mega ramp though hahah. Didn’t Shawn White also have a skateboarding video game not too long ago?
@@ShredzShop haha yeah, Wii was SO popular for a while. I never played the Shawn White one so I don’t even know if it was good or a flop. I remember the old snowboard one being decent, at least when I was young haha
I don’t know if some one said this in the comments yet but there is a vr skating game called “VR Skater” and it looks pretty interesting. Great video, I enjoyed it very much, keep up the great work!
Gotta check it out! I feel like that'll be a wild world when it opens up a bit more. Someone commented they should recreate skate spots in VR so you can go visit them and see how huge they are.
What's even more disturbing is how the simplest thing is what caused the whole explosion. It's been so long ago now I was in the second grade at the time if my memory serves me correctly we were watching as a class that school in an auditorium watching The Challenger take off so basically almost everybody in the world so it happened live.
Skateboard Park Tycoon was cool. It was like Rollercoaster Tycoon but for skateparks, and not about the skating aspect. They also had Formula 1 as the soundtrack, which was rad.

What is your favorite skateboarding video game of all time?! What video should we make next?!
I think you gotta go back to the start, and do Dogtown and Z-Boys.
:)
Cheers ShredZ
"LiL'JpD."
Skate 3 or THPS4.
One of my first skateboarding games was Tony Hawks Pro Skater.
THPS4 and where is the Creature video?!
3rd place Skate 1 2nd place THPS underground and first place......
skate 3 for ps3 (the only reason I still visit my mom's house ahaha)
I've played almost all those games over the years including the arcade ones, and EA SKATE 1 by far is the best skateboarding game ever made.
👊👊
Finally someone who agrees with me

@@newbutthunt i played skate 3 first of all three games, then i found skate 1, and bro, its beautiful and awesome. 4 times better than skate 3
*skate 2
I still play skate 3 often and I’m wondering howling better can they make the mechanics. I’m really excited to see what they come forth with and deeply hope they don’t ruin it or regress. Skate 3 was many years ago, it’s only natural we expect something drastically better! Cmon skate 4 please be good!

Theirs alr gameplay the hand movements and tricks look realistic
@@cruz1075 good to hear man hopefully the final version gets even better
@@erickt9415 try skater xl or session. both do more than ea is doing with skate when it comes to realism

I wonder how many people got into skating through the Tony Hawk video games, everyone in the skate industry definitely owe Tony Hawk a beer...
That’s how I got into skateboarding and every other kid in my era who got into skating too. We all played THPS.
Thrasher Skate and destroy was a great game! Also it had a really cool soundtrack.
I think they got unlucky with the timing of Tony Hawk pro skater.
planet rock is forever seared into my mind because of that game
@@ShredzShop I think so too. Also THPS was more family friendly. Skate and destroy was more sim like, had cops chasing you and had a pretty gritty art style 😁They asked Tony Hawk if he would be intrested about skate and destroy but he declined.

Used to play 720 'realistically' on NES as a kid, lol. I stopped skateboarding when THPS came out, played the second one forever, sometimes until the early morning. Went on to the EA games for video skating, and was already thinking of trying it IRL again when my friend showed up with a deck one day asking if I could teach him to ollie. He lasted about a month before going on to less difficult hobbies, but I've kept with it ever since. I've played the Session and Skater XL games, but I just can't get over having to steer with the triggers so looking forward to the next-gen Skate game.
Stoked you found your way back on board! 🙌🙏
Definitely EA Skate 1. Never had so much fun playing a video game
Definitely changed the same again
The y'all just unlocked a memory of me playing Rocket Power on the GameBoy Advance all the time! Thank you for that lol
hah amazing! There's a weird trigger for me seeing those neon colored old Game Boys
this was so wholesome, thank you.
👊🙏
You forgot to mention that THPS2 added Rodney Mullen as well!! Great vid though.
🙏 🔥
THPS was epic I was 20 something when it came out lol always gnarly fam 🤙🏽as always support your local skate shop!
🙌🙌🙌
Thrasher skate and destroy was the shit back in the day, all the homies were obsessed with it. Was just so much more realistic than those, they need to make a sequel.
Love seeing everyone praising it in the comments 🙌🙏
Session is a really great new game. Definitely play that. Also, I had that rocket power game... omg it's unplayable lmaooo
🔥🔥🔥
love thrashers skate and destroy video game. still have it!
🔥🔥🔥
Its not exactly video game idea, but it would be sick to recreate some famous tricks from skate videos into virtual reality, so you could see how big drops/rails/stairs really are.
that would be super dope! would be cool to be able to walk up the Lyon 25, or leap of faith!!
I had the Tech Deck app once on my phone, I honestly liked it! Yeah, it was no replacement for SKATE or THPS, but! At least my character could ride Hook-Ups decks in it.
haha thats awesome! Funny how Tech deck can line that up, but an amazing game like Sessions seems to struggle getting good brands included 🤷♂️
You totally missed Street Skater. And their is two of them one of the craziest shitty games I’ve ever played
haha gonna have to heck em out after your review 😆
Let me clarify I’ve never played the second one but the first one you should definitely check out if you can find both might not be hard I had them on the original PlayStation. Forgot to mention that they were PlayStation games
Skate 4 joining the list soon
🔥 🔥 🔥
My favourite secret character is Doom Guy who's exclusive to the PC version of Pro Skater 3.
you unlock him by putting in the cheat code IDKFA which is the unlock all weapons code in the original Doom
You can find a skateboard in doomguy's Base in Doom Eternal, Perhaps his Cameo in the port is canonical!
damn, thats a good tip! Thanks for the comment!
I still can’t believe Thrasher Skate and Destroy was made by Rockstar, the game felt kinda creepy and terrifying when the cops start chasing you. Also Street Sk8ter had an awesome soundtrack! Grind Session had a soundtrack too with a great skater lineup, introduced me to Daewon Song. Skater XL is my favorite these days
Yea that Thrasher game has a cult following in the some circles. It's kinda cool!
I remember when I tried to play thrasher skate or die, but it was so damn hard, because of thps controls. I still have thrasher game somewhere. Other games that I have played are thps2, thps5 and that sucked balls, ofcourse skate 3 and the last one what I still play is skater xl...
Keep up the content you freaks, I love it!!!!
I’m 24 for context even as a child this game was terrible but when I used to get my hair cut when I was like 8 the place used to let you play gamecube. They had this Disney Sports Skateboarding game. It makes the toy story one look like THUG
Playing video games while getting your haircut sounds pretty bad ass 🔥🔥
Where will everyone be playing the coming winters? Skate 4, Sessions, or Skater xl.
Skate 4 seems like it has a crazy amount of hype. I'm hyped on the Sessions video game, seems like they're all skate nerds making that game.
Make a video about Big Brother mag...I know I'd be stoked...maybe other people would be too.
Love Big Brother! Bought some old mags from look lack library recently. We talk about doing a big brother vid, I just don't wanna get any of those dudes in trouble haha. With all the cancel culture, some of those guys have high up jobs at big companies.
THPS2 was my favourite - always started with Rodney Mullen. The newest remaster of THPS1/2 is great and love how theyve updated some of the levels (the abandoned decrepit mall 😂)
EA Skate was groundbreaking but also absolutely amazing and super fun to play. The new mechanics made it way better and more like skateboarding and not just spamming buttons for combos on THPS. People are still playing Skate 3 and heavily waiting for Skate 4 to drop.
I grew up playing 720, California Games, T&C, and Skate or Die
The OGs 🔥🙏
@@ShredzShop yeah, I’m old as dirt.
I need y’all’s help. I’m trying to find pics or a way to get this deck I got for Christmas as a kid. I swear it was a Matt Beach deck. This would’ve been around ‘94-‘96 and I swear it had like a rose and some stained glass. I’ve been trying to find this deck
Hey are you from buffalo ny? I see the Sunday deck and that was my local shops name here. Jake Donnelly whose pro for real and Adidas rode for them. Great vid too!
I think it’s a baker collab with a bike company called Sunday. We’re from Canada!
it was fuckin hilarious to play as ben franklin skating in thug 2 lol
🙌🙌
Is the TH-cam channel starting to make more than the shop yet? Curious on what the future looks like lol
not yet haha we really wanna give it more time n effort but it's hard juggling everything!! We enjoy making the vids tho! 😜
True skate is fun as hell lol
Skate or Die : Bad N' Rad was my first skateboard video game
💥💥
When THPS3 came out it made pretty much all my friends buy a skateboard. such a tight little bundle of a game.
Grind session was legit. Played that pretty regularly.
Kind of a shame you forgot to mention SkateBIRD, a pretty hysterical parody on the Tony Hawk Pro Skater games.
Damn, I didn't even know this game existed haha
Love these list videos!
Thank you!! Glad you enjoy em! 🙌🙏
My friend and i LOVED that thrasher game!! It had a way different feel than tony hawk!! We loved tony hawk tho too!!😁😁
Lots of love for the Thrasher game in this comment section 🔥🙌
@@ShredzShop good deal! We played the crap out of that game!!😁
I remember playing skate for the first time and was mind blown how much better it was than anything I had ever played. Still my favorite game ever. Even at 41 when/if skate4 comes out I’ll be going to my sons Xbox to play for sure 😂😂😂
skate 4 is coming out april 20, 2023. i know bc my dad works at nintendo.
🔥 🌶 🔥
Hahah the “MAKE EA SKATE AGAIN” hats are great
haha so good
I played so much Disney skate and I’m not a kid, it played just like tony hawk but the levels were so fun, Andy’s bedroom and his bathtub and sink and pizza planet, awesome!
Top skater was and still is my fav arcade ever!!
👊 👊
IMO Tony Hawk's Project 8 was one of the more forward thinking games in the THPS series and doesn't get it's flowers much, probably because it was a release title for the PS3, but the PS2 version released a few weeks prior and was highly limited compared to the PS3 version. I remember most of my friends had the PS2 version because it came out first and when they got a PS3 they didn't get the better version of the game that didn't have load times to go between sections of the map and had highly upgraded graphics/performance.
The weird slowmo nail the trick dual stick foot/board control mechanic was super sick and definitely was an interesting predecessor to EA's flickit controls (and honestly the SkaterXL/Session control systems with independent L/R foot stick control). Also I think there was something like the hall of meat stuff from the EA series as well.
That's a good take! Seems to be one of the least well received games, glad you enjoyed though! I lost track of the games after THPS3.
@@ShredzShop Yeah totally, I think it released at a time where the formula was getting really stale, and they tried to switch it up a bit with American Wasteland, kinda blew it on a few things (like including BMX as a mandatory part of the game), then went the opposite direction with Project 8 trying to make a super skate-forward, less story/location driven game and folks didn't love it.
There was also no real world influence on locations, they were more generalized, so I think folks missed skating classic spots in-game as well.
@@antondoty5552 Also, a new game every year is hard for fans to keep up with. Even if they're good.
@@ShredzShop 1000%
That was pretty bodacious
🙏 🙏 🙏
Man, I remember having a demo for my PS1 with Grind Session on it. Don't fuck with Grind Session. That game was awesome!
👊 👊
@@ShredzShop as a 32 year old retired skater bro, you made me smile at the start of my day. Thanks.
Yeah, I spend most of my board $ at the local skate shop. I like it, because everyone there skates, and there's always some kind of knowledge you pick up.
That’s awesome! What’s your local shop called? Give ‘em a shout out!! 🙌🙏
@@ShredzShop The Point Skate Shop in Fairview Texas.
@@TheAnimeist Great shop!! 🙌
Skate just had a trailer about a new game and you can sign up for the beta
🔥 🔥 🔥
Pro skater music was awesome. It made it even more addictive
Nice video. Just a little bit disappointed that u didn't mention VR Skater, being that u even mentioned the metaverse.
I would love to see Skate or Die 3
Thrasher Skate & Destroy was actually a good game for the time. It was a little slow but it was feeling way more realistic than THPS (at least that was what my group of friends would think)
The iPhone came out when I was a sophomore in high school? That's rude 👴🏻👴🏻👴🏻
It's actually crazy to think how recent the iPhone is... Shredz is older than the iPhone 😆
I remember my friend had Skate for Wii. To do tricks you pretty much would just whip your wrist wildly around and and mash buttons. Still had fun on the mega ramp though hahah. Didn’t Shawn White also have a skateboarding video game not too long ago?
haha those old Wii games where they try to make hand motions for everything...
Yea Shawn White had a game, I thought we listed it, musta got missed!!
@@ShredzShop haha yeah, Wii was SO popular for a while. I never played the Shawn White one so I don’t even know if it was good or a flop. I remember the old snowboard one being decent, at least when I was young haha
You forgott about the california games for comodore 64. First one i ever gamet
I don’t know if some one said this in the comments yet but there is a vr skating game called “VR Skater” and it looks pretty interesting. Great video, I enjoyed it very much, keep up the great work!
Gotta check it out! I feel like that'll be a wild world when it opens up a bit more. Someone commented they should recreate skate spots in VR so you can go visit them and see how huge they are.
Nice fellas. 🔥🔥🔥
🙏👊
Pong was awesome. I remember seeing the Challenger .,.. they were taking a teacher into space for the first time... Her students saw it happen live
That is insane. The whole thing seems hard to comprehend, like something from a scifi movie.
What's even more disturbing is how the simplest thing is what caused the whole explosion. It's been so long ago now I was in the second grade at the time if my memory serves me correctly we were watching as a class that school in an auditorium watching The Challenger take off so basically almost everybody in the world so it happened live.
Skateboard Park Tycoon was cool. It was like Rollercoaster Tycoon but for skateparks, and not about the skating aspect.
They also had Formula 1 as the soundtrack, which was rad.
definitely different than the rest on the list!
Great video, keep it up
Thanks Paul!! 🙌
dude i really love these videos. got a good vibe ya know? keep it up man
I appreciate that! 🙏
ESPN Xtreme games was actually pretty fun back then. I played the hell out of it.
