We got the announcement trailer yesterday that they’re revamping Tony Hawk: Pro Skater 3 & 4, like they did with 1 & 2 a few years ago. I’m excited. I was a fiend on all those Tony Hawk games back on the original Playstation, and playing the 1 & 2 revamp a few years ago was liking stepping through a time portal. I actively hurt my thumb using the D-pad so much, just to get back into that old school mindset.

So I’m fully on board with a revamped 3 & 4, even though my memory of them isn’t as strong.

I remember the airport, but I can’t say I remember any other levels or details about Tony Hawk: Pro Skater 3 or 4. Was 4 the one that became more GTA-esque? Where you could walk around the city? I eventually fell off the games, but don’t remember when.

Still, I’ll very much enjoy playing these again when Tony Hawk: Pro Skater 3 & 4 comes out on July 11. This is a great year for video games!
