With Pro Skater HD, a press of the start button brings up a map of the entire level- revealing the location of every item. Hawk’s original iterations urged gamers to memorize the location of every collectable letter, destructible item, and VHS tape (now revised as DVDs). The sole downside is that Pro Skater’s framerate isn’t as fluid as it should be while serviceable in single player, multiplayer exhibits unwelcome choppiness. Likewise, the gamer’s skaters are rendered with more fidelity than a simple up-rez would allow. As such, the title’s seven stages offer a significantly upgraded polygon count, renovating classic venues such as Warehouse, School II, Venice Beach and Mall. What are the game’s strengths? Unlike many high-definition revisions, Pro Skater HD isn’t a port, but built from the ground up using the third iteration of the Unreal Engine. Hawkman Mode replaces the series’ HORSE matches, tasking players with earning coins by executing distinctive tricks.
The title’s online-only multiplayer component retains classic Graffiti and Trick Attack competitions, adding Big Head Mode, where players are forced to perform stunts to reduce the size of their continually swelling craniums. Forging any overarching completion or storyline, levels task gamers with collecting the five letters in the word S-K-A-T-E, attaining predetermined scores, or completing a number of designated stunts before the game’s timer depletes.
Merging a selection of stages, skaters, and music from both 1999’s Tony Hawk Pro Skater and its sequel, Pro Skater 2, Tony Hawk Pro Skater HD revisits the addictive runs of the franchise’s early years, tasking players to complete a variety of challenges within a two minute time-frame.

With the release of Tony Hawk Pro Skater HD, a downloadable title for the Xbox 360 (a PS3 version is forthcoming) Ride and Shred developers Robomodo have been given a chance at redemption by returning the series to its joystick-wrangling roots. Woefully, that plan fizzled, sending stacks of both Tony Hawk: Ride and its ill-fated sequel Shred, kick-flipping their way into bargain bins and nearly retiring the once-popular franchise. What is the concept? With the arrival of a pricey plastic skateboard and conviction that gamers desired to perform simulated ollies in their living room, the Tony Hawk series attempted the most dangerous stunt of its career.
