The jungle DnB music that was so prominent in the games during this era really made a huge impact on me. I'm a fighting gamer for sure but during this time, I was heavy into racing games.
The ATV Offraod Fury 3 intro is without a doubt the best intro to a video game. I remember restarting my game over and over again just to hear Duality by Slipknot.
Seeing SSX3 just brings me back to the days when I played Ratchet & Clank 3, Star Ocean 3, Lego Star Wars, Megaman Battle Network 4, and Spiderman 2. Good times.
Woah wtf! There's a clip @37:40 of my skate park. A little park in Corvallis, Oregon. How tf? It's not common to see my local park included in anything. That dude is doing a double tail whip on the super wedge is what we like to call it here. I lucked out & was featured in my High school yearbook ollieing off the top of it to flat at night on my skateboard. They made an entire page that picture. I couldn't believe it. These are very good times for me. I love the early 2000's and the whole vibe of that era. I really appreciate that you made this video. You seriously make some of the most amazing content. The quality is insane and the topics you cover are just unmatched. Keep up the great work dude
That’s so awesome! It looks like an amazing park, would’ve loved to have gotten to skate it back when I was fearless on my board 😆 That’s really dope they put your shot in the mag too, that’s what dreams are made of as a young skater! But thank you very much for watching, and I’m glad you enjoyed 😁❤️
These were the days and what a Time to be alive (90s - early 2000s) -The last cool generation. God i miss these times so much! And not only the games, the whole lifestyle cky, mtv, x-sports, the music.. etc etc. Sometimes i really feel sorry for the kids today -and the future ones; This passion and spirit will never return.
@@Vynsent Considering how time actually passes in this Universe, and how random and insignificant this planet circles; I completely agree with you- If twe (me) had known back then how valuable everything actually was ... Phew 🥲
Another great trip down memory lane! I remember playing a lot of these games back then, and, like everything from back then, I miss those times dearly. To your point about the licensed soundtracks tied to these games, I found some of my favourite bands through them. Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX introduced me to Deftones, a band that changed my life. Ah, such good times. Another banger of a video, my friend!
Thank you for featuring Aggressive Inline. Its one of my favorite games from that era. Mainly because it did a lot of things before the Tony Hawk series. Highly underrated game imo
Mine as well! I’ve been playing it a lot recently, and it even inspired me to get into inline skating. I honestly enjoyed more than most of the Tony Hawk games as well, it just needed a couple more sequels to perfect its few flaws!
Another great video! Thank you. These games were so fun. I love the way some of them really take a sport and turn it Into a really fun extreme version of it, like NBA Street. EA use to go so hard.
Hey bro great video (as always) I just wanted to say I hope we give you as much love and appreciation you put in the videos. And I hope these stay Coming!!! Much love brother
Absolutely they will my friend! We’re just getting started with all the content I have to give you guys 😁 Thank you for all your continued support though, it really means the world to me ❤️
Maaaaan, the first SSX was the first game I rented when I got my PS2. I love the hell out of that game! Wish I still had my PS2 just to play it again. I had SSX Tricky on Gamecube and played the hell out of that too. I still have yet to play the 3rd one. Great job on the video my dude, keep it up!
The first two are incredible, but you gotta do yourself a favor a play the third! It’s definitely peak SSX 😁 And I really appreciate you my friend, always showing support!
Sad but probably true! I almost love having SSX preserved the way it is though. I love how the visuals pair with the sixth gen technology. If they made it look hyper realistic, it probably wouldn’t hold the same charm in my opinion 😅
@@Vynsent I agree. And then it would also be ruined by each board, costume being paid DLC. If you want an idea for a follow up to this video, you could look at the terrible extreme sports games that also came out at the time, like BMX XXX. Or how about the Test Drive or Need for Speed series? For example, Test Drive 2, way back on the Amiga, the development team (Distinction Software) finished the game, left, and went to EA to make the first Need for Speed game, which is pretty interesting. I'll also just leave this here, if you know you know. th-cam.com/video/XvziPPpryv0/w-d-xo.html Keep up the great work, Vincent. Thank you.
I remember loving the Backyard Wrestling games as a kid. Man what a cool time in gaming this was, these games felt so futuristic to me, and they’re still fun to play to this day.
Dude... This is freaking amazing! SSX Tricky and SSX 3, along with Freakstyle, THPS 3,4, and Underground have literally molded me into who I am today. The way you were able to credit these titles in this video was honestly a thing of beauty. I get excited every time you upload a new video. Keep doing what you're doing brother, you're gifted.
Very grateful for this comment my friend 🥹❤️ I really appreciate that! I was definitely molded by a lot of these games as well, they were a staple in my entire upbringing 😁
@@c0ldsh0w3r Nah homie, I make videos too, and understand how much time and effort it takes to make a video this long, and just wanted to let him know that his efforts are very appreciated.
Dude, fantastic analysis. For me the best Tony Hawk is Underground. It brought together everything I loved from the first 4 games and added a compelling if not cheesey story. I go back to that game most often.
Definitely one of my favorites as well! I spent a ridiculous amount of time playing it as a kid. Would love to see a new underground installment, with the THPS remake engine. They killed it with that game!
Atv Offroad Fury was my First PS2 game, I have the 4 games for the PS2, Atv Offroad Fury 3 is my favorite game of the series and one of my Favorite PS2 games, i Love the Customization because of the Many Colors you can choose for the Rider and Atv which is something that Current games RARELY have and Theres a Logo Editor which you can create Logos with Figures. I remembered being impressed by the Graphics as a Kid :) I'm From Mexico and i feel Weird for loving these Extreme Racing Games instead of the average Japanese Fighting Games
yeah ssx 3 and tricky are awesome, but the bestest of ever, On Tour doesnt get enough love, it's the most 2000's Xtreme game of all and it's supremely adorable. "cast off the crutch that kills the pain..."
Little off topic but the most underrated ATV game ever is Pure! I think it came out 2010. Amazing! I miss extreme sports. And the fashion. I still wear Fox motocross jerseys.
Not 'soapys', just Soaps, i loved those shoes even though walking up marble high school stairs was nothing short of a deathtrap! 🤣 Awesome video bro, these games define my young childhood 🤘🔥
I bought nearly everyone of these extreme sports games back then. Good times. Riders Republic are probably the only major extreme sports game in a decade. EA / Criterion had one in the works, but cancelled it.
@@Vynsent Riders have Skate, Bicycles, MC, Ski, Snowmobiles, Wingsuit etc. and they may even add more. It's kind of all of the 20+ year old extreme sports in the same game, except for Aggressive Inline. It's the most complete extreme sports game ever made. It's also one of the most living/social online games ever made as there are 100's of people everywhere on the huge map. There are also mass races which is a fun chaos. ;).
It’s been probably 20 years since I last played it but I remember MX Superfly going hard asf and Motocross Mania 3 was really fun back in the day, and you can’t forget the “STREET” series of games made by EA BIG. Fantastic video dude, subscribed 🤙🤙 Edit: AND ATV Quad Power Racing 2 was fun, man I’m unlocking memories left and right😂 Edit part deux electric boogaloo: I guess the street games wouldn’t count as “Extreme” sports sorry lmao, shit felt extreme😂
Great video! I was hoping you’d mention a BMX game I can’t remember the name of 😅 I remember playing it on the PS2 at my cousin’s house. I thought it was Davie Miura, but it was a downhill race, not so much like Pro Skater.
40:20 You forgot about Frenzy Express from Uniana. It's not really an "extreme sports" game by any means, but it's an arcade game where the player uses a foot-powered scooter to deliver mail to various destinations within the time limit. I remember playing it long ago as a kid and not understanding the gameplay systems.
I enjoyed and played most of the ssx games but my favorite and imo the best snowboarding game of the 2000s was Amped 3 on Xbox 360. If you snowboard now I highly suggest trying/getting Shredders, it's like skate but for snowboarding.
@@Vynsent yeah it's great if you actually snowboard. I found out about it because it was on gamepass but they removed it sadly, if you try it lmk what you think of it or maybe make a video about it.
I am most familiar with the SSX reboot on the PS3. That game was a lot of fun, I really liked how they used weather conditions, wingsuits, and darkness in some of the courses. I still wish it got a port to newer platforms or the PC or a brand new SSX game.
@@Vynsent Yeah the game is very intense as there are courses where you are in the middle of a blizzard in complete darkness. I highly recommend it or check out gameplay footage.
pro westling skating mma and overall y2k teen rebelion era felt like a glimpse into the future . the cultural shift where pople from the late 80s and early 90s were craving for some action adrenaline and rebel against the boring safe lifestyle. y2k era had great but false promises . as you were in some crazy action dystopian futuristic movie where anythign is possible and degeneracy felt like mischief. it was really fun while it lasted but in the 2010s it has gone too far and we reaped the negative consequences .but dont worry because now we are witnessing another cultural shift and things will be better than ever
I definitely agree! And what I really love about now is how much appreciation the younger generations are starting to show for the Y2K era. A lot of the styles and music are beginning to make a comeback 😁 Would love to see more games of that nature being made in present day tho!
downhill domination, thrasher skate and destroy and crusty demons are also worth a play imo, all great games also everyone should play Aggressive Inline it's actually fantastic
I'd say it is the closest thing we get to road rush on ps2. It is a crying shame downhill domination is not included here. It defines 00s extreme games.
@@Vynsent THANKS!!! (I think that's the one) I've been searching for one that had a tank as (probably) an AI opponent in a screenshot at the back of the cover so maybe it's a Road Rash sequel!!! I'll go check it out!!!
@Vynsent found it!!! It's Motocross Mania! You should definitely check this one out too!! It's like burnout, flatout, downhill dominator and road rash combined and it features abilities like slow mo and weapons like crawbars and Molotov cocktails
Razor Freestyle Scooter has "tough frame rates"... silky 60fps on Dreamcast. Pity it wasn't a patch on the other similar games :( Definitely checking out the EA Big MX game and the Sony ATV games though. Never tried them.
EA used to actually make good/great games, including Madden. I know it's not extreme sports but EA being the only company with the right to make NFL games is not a good thing, there's no other NFL games to compete with and innovate and make each other better, they can just put out the same trash game every year and people are gonna buy it and play it cause it's the only NFL game.
I agree that your better off just playing the def jam games minus icon & the wwe games backyard wrestling is pretty much the wrestling verison of bmx xxx btw have you ever been a fan of wrestling
That’s a great comparison! It was just one of those edgy games 😅 And yes sir! Used to love wrestling as a kid. I’m trying to get back into it with my buddies lately. They’re saying it’s better than ever right now!
@RootVegetable You kinda right, but wrong at the same time. There are of course good and quality games coming out the oven nowadays too, but if you look closer almost all of them either remakes, sequels (usually with little to no changes), or spiritual successors. This of course is not applied for every new game out there, but the trend is very transparent. Novelty is a great miss nowadays. That's what most folks meam when they say games used to be good. I personally miss novelty snd fun, not nostalgia 😀.

Oh, no love for Downhill Domination. Pretty good Downhill Mountain Bike game by the developers behind Twisted Metal Black. But good video
Ooo, I need to give it a look!
@@Vynsentdownhill domination was easily one of my favorite sports games. Definitely give it a go it still holds up I play it to this day on my PS2
just bought that for my gf since she loves ssx
Still got my copy. Downhill Domination is goated. All of these early 2000’s extreme sports games paved the way for Riders Republic

Same here! Still play it 😁🔥
I remember a bit the sports era but never played on any consoles of my friends😔
It’s definitely worth playing all of these games still! I highly recommend emulating them on PC 😁
downhill domination, thrasher skate and destroy and crusty demons are also worth a play imo, all great games
also everyone should play Aggressive Inline it's actually fantastic
also worth nothing that Razor Freestyle Scooter is basically a slightly worse version of Grind Session which is also a really great game
I had never heard of Grind Session before, I’ll have to check it out since I sorta enjoyed razor freestyle 😅
@@Vynsent it's the definition of a thps clone but it's really enjoyable imo, it has some really awesome unlockables and a great soundtrack
the modern resurrenge of these games is crazy name a sport and there's an indy dev making a badasss game for it
Very blessed for it! Hopefully we can get a new aggressive inline game one day 😎
@@Vynsent look up a game called "on a roll" it's an inline game on steam it's pretty good it's in early access but it's still pretty good

I’ve never played it, but it sounds awesome!
I'd say it is the closest thing we get to road rush on ps2. It is a crying shame downhill domination is not included here. It defines 00s extreme games.
You forgot to mention BMXXX, I still play this game today. It’s better than the Dave Mira game.
I would've included it, but I actually covered it in one of my first videos about ambitious games!

MX vs ATV is still going btw, and it's as good as ever
I need to play the new ones!
Another HeavynSent upload 😎 I think I'm starting to like this guy 😏
I’m here for the long run my friend 😁 Glad to have you on board!
ur videos r so good always
I do my best 🥹 Thank you so much!!
Freekstyle is no where near one of the best mx games made - take a look at the mx vs atv series 😊
I love both!
Memories from a time when life felt like it meant more😞
There are still good times to be had! But it definitely was a magical time ❤️
Scootality 🤣
Also does anyone remember the name of a series with dirtbikes in which riders were armed and would hit eachother while racing?
Road rash!
@@Vynsent THANKS!!! (I think that's the one) I've been searching for one that had a tank as (probably) an AI opponent in a screenshot at the back of the cover so maybe it's a Road Rash sequel!!! I'll go check it out!!!
@Vynsent found it!!! It's Motocross Mania! You should definitely check this one out too!! It's like burnout, flatout, downhill dominator and road rash combined and it features abilities like slow mo and weapons like crawbars and Molotov cocktails
35:25 okay, now do this trick is 2024 xDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Lmao I’m not even going to lie, I somehow missed that part of the clip when editing it into the video 😂
every video you put out tugs on my nostalgic heart strings and is always on the money 🥲
I always do my best! Very glad to have you on the team my friend 😁❤️
Razor Freestyle Scooter has "tough frame rates"... silky 60fps on Dreamcast. Pity it wasn't a patch on the other similar games :( Definitely checking out the EA Big MX game and the Sony ATV games though. Never tried them.
You’re gonna love them! Freekstyle is forsure one of the best MX games ever made 😁
Activision 02 series Have a lot of good titles they were booming
They really were killing it!
I miss going outside just because
Haha I’ve had to make some more outside time for myself as well 😅
My whole childhood
Same here! It brought me way back making this one 😅
@@Vynsent loved it, thank you man.
@@MrXmaddoX Thank you for watching!
Ayy new upload :)
Had to! 😁💫
Man I missed out on the 2000s I was -3 At the time
Have you played fifa or nba Street games thoes wore great
They were a great time forsure! And I loved the street series, I plan on making a video on them all in the future 😁 NBA street vol 2 was my go to!
Ssx on tour the best ssx
SSX tricky!!!!! And then you listen to the entire Tricky song lyrics and oh dear that's messed up, damn!
Lmao you ain’t lying! The beat goes hard tho 😂
There is nothing extreme about a scooter! Lol
I would agree until they started taking them down a flight of stairs 😂
EA used to actually make good/great games, including Madden. I know it's not extreme sports but EA being the only company with the right to make NFL games is not a good thing, there's no other NFL games to compete with and innovate and make each other better, they can just put out the same trash game every year and people are gonna buy it and play it cause it's the only NFL game.
Aiiight where is BMX XXX!
Gotta video dropping soon, talking about BMX XXX! 😁
Ssx 3 supremacy 🫶
The literal goat of snowboarding games 👏😎
Dude acts like walkthroughs and the Internet wasn't a thing in 2002. 😂 Great video tho, I have played nearly all these games and owned many.
Lmao I was too broke for internet at least 😂 Very glad that you enjoyed! Thank you for watching my friend 😁
THIS BACK WHEN EA WAS THE GOAT!
You ain’t lying! 😁
Im gonna extreme sports games your early 2000s
Oh baby 😏💫
I agree that your better off just playing the def jam games minus icon & the wwe games backyard wrestling is pretty much the wrestling verison of bmx xxx btw have you ever been a fan of wrestling
That’s a great comparison! It was just one of those edgy games 😅 And yes sir! Used to love wrestling as a kid. I’m trying to get back into it with my buddies lately. They’re saying it’s better than ever right now!
> no mma games
Definitely should’ve included one 😭
Igpx ps2.
No downhill domination? Come on
I fumbled the bag on that 🥲
Also Jet Set Radio and JSR Future, my man. Those are incredibly fantastic.
games used to be fun
Some of them still are, but the older games just had so much more love put into them 😅
They still are, especially in the indie space.
@@VynsentNostalgia brain rot. There were plenty of junk games.
@RootVegetable You kinda right, but wrong at the same time. There are of course good and quality games coming out the oven nowadays too, but if you look closer almost all of them either remakes, sequels (usually with little to no changes), or spiritual successors. This of course is not applied for every new game out there, but the trend is very transparent. Novelty is a great miss nowadays. That's what most folks meam when they say games used to be good. I personally miss novelty snd fun, not nostalgia 😀.
SSX > SEX
You ain’t lying 😅
I love both
