I can't get over how the characters just look constantly pissed...There's looking "cool" and then there's just looking pissed because Disney forced you into yet another shovel ware game.
You'd think that having cartoon characters in an extreme sports game would be a recipe for success. Tony Hawk games really took liberties with how one could skate and defy physics, but with cartoon characters there are so many more possibilities. But almost every cartoony skateboarding game I've seen doesn't take full advantage of it.
@@QWERTYCommander While the aesthetics look good, I've never heard any good things about the gameplay from others. Then again, I have yet to play it, so I can't truly judge it.
To be fair, Disney had another Skateboarding game that was actually pretty good. ...And you can be the elephant from Tazan. ...Though TBF, they kinda cheated by using the Tony Hawk engine.
It's almost as if the game was designed as a downhill skateboard racing game first (because of the time limit and checkpoints that extend the time make it feel like it's trying to be an arcade racer), but then at the last minute, decided to fill the levels with Pro Skater like objectives, it just doesn't mesh well at all.
Maybe they heard that THPS1 was originally a downhill racer turned into a free-roam objective game and thought they'd do the same cause it worked the first time
I remember Caddicarus talking about this game in his video on bad skateboarding games. He called it "Disney Sports Roadkill" and honestly, that's pretty accurate for this game. I enjoyed the review! I can't wait to see the next one!
This game’s existence feels weird to me. I know Disney was no stranger to trying to adopt 90s attitude, but Mickey Mouse trying to be extreme like this feels very dated. From a company who can be considered timeless at their best. Also, a part of me expected Simpsons Skateboarding to be a part of the lineup when I found out it was gonna be Disney themed. I’m decidedly hyped for tomorrow’s video.
Mickey trying to seem cool in general is hilarious and doesn't work. The only exception to me is when Mickey is like a mob boss since he represents how Disney has taken over nearly all forms of media
As for the unlockable outfits, that wreaks of "unfinished feature". Perhaps it's a penta penguin situation where they were unfinished and left to a cheat code that they never bothered to put in a cheat book, or they're just not there period and they didn't remove it from the menu/advertising. Feels like lost media almost...
This for gamecube was always on the shelf at the rental store & I wondered why anyone would rent this over a real skateboarding game. & now it only exists as a footnote in Hawktober
I guess that's why later they said "fuck it, if we want to make a Disney skating game, let's just get it done by the people who does the Tony Hawk's series"
Not sure if anyone mentioned this yet, but you can get the alternate costumes. unfortunately you do it by clearing every side mission. Thankfully you get one for doing them in more than one run, but I feel like there's also another costume for doing them all in one go. Not really worth the trouble.
I had this game as a kid! I never knew about the other Disney Sports Game! I would have eaten those up. I remember finding the announcers funny but upon hearing them again, my brain and ears finally connected 😬 When I was 8 this game was fine, although I never understood the level design. I eventually traded this game in for Disney Extreme Skate Adventure and oh boy! I found that one so much better! Thanks for making me feel nostalgic with this amazing video Jak! I look forward to the rest of Hawktober and if you ever cover those other disney sports games in the future! Have a good one!
Great to see a new video from you. Hope all is well. Disney did do the Disney Extreme Skate game using the THPS4 engine and layout. It'll always have a special place in my heart, many days skating and playing that game with my cousin, RIP Dooie. ☝
5:41 I'll be honest, right here I get less THPS and more Rail Canyon from Sonic Heroes. Well, this is going to be interesting. 🤔 Also, "Missus Rodent" XD
if there is something good i can say about these games is that they have a very clean 2000s asthetic hud, as a desiner id say they make a very good job giving the games show a radical feeling, i really like how the character faces show in a cut out before jumping into the screen, that is a cool introduction.
Imagine if there was a parallel universe where Hawktober was a national holiday, while some TH-cam made halloween month where he reviewed all Halo games.
great work Jak! hope you get a load more subs & patrons you deserve it for constantly smashing Hawktober every year, end up rewatching the whole catalogue every time!!!
I can’t get enough of the word “Nollie” every single second cuz god it’s just so funny but I understand you don’t like hearing it every second. Which explains why it gives you a complaint. Now I know why, Infact I so need to get a Gamecube and this game to see how good it is but overall this video is just straight up facts out of the box.
God I'm dumb. I didn't remember that the Simpsons ARE Disney now! Oh God what an awful place the world can be sometimes. Anyway this marathon version of hawktober has been great so far, really loving it!
I had to pause the video for a moment after that Mickey "Rodent" Mouse impression. Then I realized October is also the month of Halloween, so it's alright
Those levels looks awfully familiar, the first level is just City Scape from Sonic adventure 2, the pinball machine looks like Casino Park from Sonic Heroes and the amusement park looks like the one in Sonic Adventure 1, even the canyon level with the monorails looks like the one from Sonic Heroes too
I played this as a kid and I never got past the first level. I don't even think I knew about the checkpoints though and just played it like a collectathon. I got the rom for this game and the Extreame Skate game because I didn't remember which one was the one I played. I'll watch both your videos though
Just checked eBay, and the cheapest buy it now price for this game in English is over $30 Canadian…for a loose disk. The cheapest CIB copy is about 10-15 dollars more. Not going to get it, but I thought it would be fun to see if I could afford it with pocket change. Boy, was I ever wrong. The GBA version is about $5 loose. That’s the good news. The bad news is, the cheapest CIB copy of the GBA cart is over $60, which is about the same as most of the Game Cube versions.
Never played the game, but with the GBA port, I can see an idea that they may have had in not including Max With Max not included, all of the characters are non skaters and so you could see it as a game in which they learn to skate. Hence why the tricks are locked behind the button collecting. Just a thought.
I know that your channel is mostly skate boarding games but please if you like combo mashing and correct movement and good mechanics I'd recommend the Mortal kombat franchise recently I revisited it and now that I played it for actual fun and story mode it's super strategic and quick to pick up but hard to master and it's super rewarding if you know how to pull off combos or fatalities
Last year we've had the Activision O2 series. This year we have mainly Disney extreme sports games. But then again, who knows what path this Hawktober will lead us if the next review is anything to go by?
damn so not the action replay helped in figuring out the outfit thing? i mean i guess that would be bad if they were there but the devs forgot to PROGRAM a way to earn them
Good to see we’re wading through the garbage to hopefully end up at how Disney came to the shocking realisation that they should just get Activision to make a Tony Hawk clone for them using the same engine to cap off Hawktober
You should then try out Disney Skate Adventure. If I remember right, they even got one of the Tony Hawk Pro Skater gsne devs actually made the game, which is why it plays a lot better
I can't get over how the characters just look constantly pissed...There's looking "cool" and then there's just looking pissed because Disney forced you into yet another shovel ware game.
Hey I’d be pissed too if I was in this game!

What about Go Go Hypergrind?
it is. check out disney extreme skate adventure. it's actually incredible
@@QWERTYCommander While the aesthetics look good, I've never heard any good things about the gameplay from others. Then again, I have yet to play it, so I can't truly judge it.
Does the Jet Set Radio duology count?
To be fair, Disney had another Skateboarding game that was actually pretty good. ...And you can be the elephant from Tazan. ...Though TBF, they kinda cheated by using the Tony Hawk engine.
Cant get more rad than a 1930s cartoon characters eating pavement while trying to skateboard
Pete in a nutshell
The intros alone have me with a giant f'n grin. So glad to see you back mate!
They made Goofy actually ride goofy foot. Nice job, _KONAMI._
Holy FUCK it’s Kamiyuuu

Right at 6:30 when Jack started to freak out, by Internet cut out. It's like even the entire WWW had enough and bailed
I remember Caddicarus talking about this game in his video on bad skateboarding games. He called it "Disney Sports Roadkill" and honestly, that's pretty accurate for this game.

Very much so!
Mickey trying to seem cool in general is hilarious and doesn't work. The only exception to me is when Mickey is like a mob boss since he represents how Disney has taken over nearly all forms of media
Nintendo's Plumber gives off his cool vibe better than Disney's rodent that's for sure.
As for the unlockable outfits, that wreaks of "unfinished feature".

Gotta love a game where the tutorial area is its best level.
Yep the tutorial area yay 🤦♂️
These stages look straight out of the Sonic Adventure games lol
Exactly both 1&2
Except Sonic Adventure's stages actually look better
This for gamecube was always on the shelf at the rental store & I wondered why anyone would rent this over a real skateboarding game. & now it only exists as a footnote in Hawktober
I had Disneys extreme skate adventure when I was a kid. I didn’t even know this game existed
I guess that's why later they said "fuck it, if we want to make a Disney skating game, let's just get it done by the people who does the Tony Hawk's series"
Having you back on a consistent basis in the sub box is a magical time, Jak. Hawktober is just the icing on the cake.
Which game has the most annoying announcer? This game with its *NOLLIE* guy, or The Simpsons Skateboarding with it's Kent Brockman?
I never knew Disney had a sports network series growing up and I'm glad I didn't lol. Great review Jak enjoyable as always mate.
Not sure if anyone mentioned this yet, but you can get the alternate costumes. unfortunately you do it by clearing every side mission. Thankfully you get one for doing them in more than one run, but I feel like there's also another costume for doing them all in one go. Not really worth the trouble.
I'm not surprised the Disney Sports line failed after less than a year, whereas Mario's is still around.
A Disney Sports series created by KONAMI... How have I never heard about this?!
Your getting closer to disney extreme skate adventure…. But no there yet :(
Man I love that game!!
I had this game as a kid! I never knew about the other Disney Sports Game! I would have eaten those up. I remember finding the announcers funny but upon hearing them again, my brain and ears finally connected 😬 When I was 8 this game was fine, although I never understood the level design.

i have a feeling he's gonna cover that banger soon
5:41 I'll be honest, right here I get less THPS and more Rail Canyon from Sonic Heroes. Well, this is going to be interesting. 🤔
Also, "Missus Rodent" XD
Really does look like Sonic heroes Rail Canyon And the first level looks like The first Sonic adventure 2 level
Me myself: Yes! Hawktober's back baby! It's Airblade time.
Jack: This time we are reviewing Disney games.
Me myself: Oh god! This is even better!
if there is something good i can say about these games is that they have a very clean 2000s asthetic hud, as a desiner id say they make a very good job giving the games show a radical feeling, i really like how the character faces show in a cut out before jumping into the screen, that is a cool introduction.
All of those levels are literally from Sonic Adventure/s or Sonic Heroes
Yeah it’s very weird
Jak, there’s only one word to describe this game
NOLLIE!
lmaoo
Imagine if there was a parallel universe where Hawktober was a national holiday, while some TH-cam made halloween month where he reviewed all Halo games.
dude i love your channel man
There’s nothing more hardcore than a nearly 100 year old cartoon mouse ripping gnarly tricks on the board
6:58 it sounds like Where Eagles Dare by the misfits.
Hey Jak, love your stuff bro! Keep up the good work!
great work Jak! hope you get a load more subs & patrons you deserve it for constantly smashing Hawktober every year, end up rewatching the whole catalogue every time!!!
Ayy, I love how you used the skate remix of the mgs2 theme. Great video :)
Don’t forget Disney skateboarding featuring all your favorites like toy story Tarzan and many more
Woot that tease for Simpson's Skateboarding at the end, woah it's gonna be good. 😄
Love seeing new upload from square eyed jak!!! Thanks for your work mate!
I can’t get enough of the word “Nollie” every single second cuz god it’s just so funny but I understand you don’t like hearing it every second. Which explains why it gives you a complaint.

What I look forward to every year.

You do love skate board games alot
Well in that case I recommend to try
(disney extreme skate adventure)
Ah, shit. He’s actually gonna review The Simpson’s Skateboarding.
I can’t wait to see what he has to say
“If you want to be laughed at and be called a virgin, you play as Pete.” Damn Jak
TH-cam randomly recommended me this. What a nice channel, I think I'll subscribe!
I forgot how fun your videos are dude!
"There's always tomorrow"
And tomorrow I'll, invent those blueprints~
Jak is back. He's already been back. But now he's even backer!
I had to pause the video for a moment after that Mickey "Rodent" Mouse impression.
Then I realized October is also the month of Halloween, so it's alright
The opening notes of the Simpsons skateboarding theme brought bile into my throat
I had this as a kid and couldn't even beat the first level
The predecesor of Kingdom Hearts 2's skateboarding minigame /s
How the fuck have I NEVER heard about this?
KHII has been on my backlog for so many years, think it's time to finally check it out.
@@SquareEyedJak it is EXTREMELY basic (edit: and barebones), but it's decent enough to do stupid skateboarding stuff
Those levels looks awfully familiar, the first level is just City Scape from Sonic adventure 2, the pinball machine looks like Casino Park from Sonic Heroes and the amusement park looks like the one in Sonic Adventure 1, even the canyon level with the monorails looks like the one from Sonic Heroes too
At least this game knows what nollies are
NOLLIE
NOLLIE
NOLLIE
SHIIIIT DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE
I did not know jet set radio as extreme sports game.
I enjoy your videos keep up the good work
I played this as a kid and I never got past the first level. I don't even think I knew about the checkpoints though and just played it like a collectathon. I got the rom for this game and the Extreame Skate game because I didn't remember which one was the one I played. I'll watch both your videos though
Oh yeah, The Simpsons is technically Disney now, isn't it?
Oh boy...something tells me SEJ is gonna go ballistic when he plays The Simpsons Skateboarding
Maybe one year you could do Mort the Chicken, Chicken Run, Chicken Little and Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken…
*Cawktober*
I guess Gex was desperate for work after the PS1 and had to take up this narration gig..
Jak don't even DARE try to collect them all these Disney Konami sports games are RARE AND EXPENSIVE AS HELL
Legit thought you were gonna announce Disney extreme skate as the next review, surprised by the simpsons reveal! Can’t wait
Lol I had this game but I'm now realizing that I only recognize the first level, I must have never made it past that stage 😅
18:30 I laughed 🤣 so hard When I saw this Keep it up Jak Can’t wait for your next video
Just checked eBay, and the cheapest buy it now price for this game in English is over $30 Canadian…for a loose disk. The cheapest CIB copy is about 10-15 dollars more. Not going to get it, but I thought it would be fun to see if I could afford it with pocket change. Boy, was I ever wrong. The GBA version is about $5 loose. That’s the good news.

Skateboarding around castles? This one if definitely canon to Kingdom Hearts
Never played the game, but with the GBA port, I can see an idea that they may have had in not including Max
With Max not included, all of the characters are non skaters and so you could see it as a game in which they learn to skate. Hence why the tricks are locked behind the button collecting.
Just a thought.
Feels like a stretch, I think you’re giving them too much credit 😅
"GnArLy!"
Good grief, that's aggravating.
Hawktober is finally back!
Letting my eyes go bloodshot doesn’t sound like a good idea but hee ho why not let’s trip up on a board why not
It's Disney Sports ROADKILL!!!
I am planning on doing a review of Backyard Skateboarding.
What are your tips Square Eyed Jak
I belly laughed at "if you want to be laughed at and called a virgin"
I hope you get to 50k subs soon Jak.
I hope you get to Go! Go! Hypergrind. I love that game
Fun video. Can't wait for the next one
The rodent 😂
Cant wait for extreme Skate Adventure
I know that your channel is mostly skate boarding games but please if you like combo mashing and correct movement and good mechanics I'd recommend the Mortal kombat franchise recently I revisited it and now that I played it for actual fun and story mode it's super strategic and quick to pick up but hard to master and it's super rewarding if you know how to pull off combos or fatalities
this vid is GNARLY
That fapping joke near the end was funny af
Awesome video!!!!!!! you're doing great!!!!!!! keep it up!!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Last year we've had the Activision O2 series. This year we have mainly Disney extreme sports games. But then again, who knows what path this Hawktober will lead us if the next review is anything to go by?
Fuck yes I love hawktober
Simpsons Skateboard oh boy guys we in trouble
Gotta hand it to Jak: a funny Mickey Mouse impersonation that was
damn so not the action replay helped in figuring out the outfit thing? i mean i guess that would be bad if they were there but the devs forgot to PROGRAM a way to earn them
The game deserves a minus infinity out of zero just for the narrator spam alone. Holy shit how did that get approved lmao
I guess replace the Birdman with Donald Duck and the Hawktober spirit is still there.
I remember hearing about this game at launch way back in 2002. I heard it was horrible at the time lol.
Good to see we’re wading through the garbage to hopefully end up at how Disney came to the shocking realisation that they should just get Activision to make a Tony Hawk clone for them using the same engine to cap off Hawktober
i liked for the stillborn joke
You should then try out Disney Skate Adventure. If I remember right, they even got one of the Tony Hawk Pro Skater gsne devs actually made the game, which is why it plays a lot better
Hey Jak,
What are you gonna do when you hit the 50k subs. I’ve been a fan since 2016. Have a great fucking day.
Well I was kinda hoping I've have hit it in time for the Spyro ELR so I dunno what I'm gonna do now... but I have a few ideas swimming around! 😉
5:12 ouch
I got one word to say… NOLLIE!!!
Does anyone know how many of these came out in the states if at all?
You need to put a major trigger warning before you bring up Simpsons Skateboarding.... the flashbacks... they hurt...
