When I first picked out this game and read the booklet, I thought this game would be a blast! Well to my surprise, it's not as fun as you think it will be! This game has about 10 tricks you can do. That's it. The levels aren't put together very well and are almost impossible to get cash or good points. The points is another story. In THPS for N64, you can score major points! In this game, the higest combo points I got was 5321. That's nothing compared to THPS for N64 or THPS 2 for Playstation! This game has only two boards you can buy. And they cost a lot! The graphics are exceptional because this is GBC. The levels, verts and streets, are very short! They have no cool stuff like jumping throught secret rooms or special moves like over the pipe or something. When you try to grind, the charater will grind no matter what so that gets boring very quick. I got this game for easter and I haven't played it much because it's so boring! My advice: Don't buy this game. Save your money for a game like Super Mario Bros DX or Mario Golf or even better, Zelda: Links Awakening DX. If you want a very detailed description or Zelda: Links Awakening DX, Look for my friends review on it. His name is Mike Brennan. So save your money man and don't waste it on this game!

It is a great game but it was pretty difficult. You can't race against the system you can only go to different places and earn money by doing specific things. The only way to go to some areas is if you pay an entry fee, which is a lot of money. Also you have to buy boards. There are many different players to choose from though. I am going to get "BOARDER ZONE" for GB color because I think it's a better game. (it's a snowboarding game) Check it ou.

Honest reviews on Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2

This game has horrible graphics the skaters are to small to see,

and it has bad game play. You are better off buying it for Dreamcast,Gameboy advance,Playstation and PS2. It is a great game on every system except gameboy color.

This game is pretty good. I enjoy it, and it has clean 2-d scrolling and/or 3-d levels that let you go closer or farther away from the screen (giving the illusion of depth). The graphics are good for a Game Boy, but the levels are short. Many of them only have 1 or 2 half-pipes and they are loaded with grinding rails. If you jump near a grindable surface, you automatically grind it, so it takes a lot of manueverability away from the game. It would be better if you had to press B or something to start the grind, although doing that and using the D-pad allows you to perform different types of grinds.

Also, there are limited tricks you can do, there are only 3 skateboards for each player, it's hard to make enough money to buy a new board or a new park, and the locations only amount to 7, with 4 of them being available to you at the beginning.

My verdict, don't rush to your local electronics store to buy the game, but wait a while and consider my comments. Or you could get Game Boy Advance and buy its THPS2 game, which I don't have either of, but it has good reviews as of now. If you want an OK skateboarding game that you can have some fun with, go ahead and get this. Otherwise, take your time and shop around, maybe you'll find something else that piques your interest.
