Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 — Out Now!

Alright, so imagine this—you’re diving headfirst into chaos, or maybe just a skateboarding game with way too much to do. I dunno. Anyway, you’re zipping through, what, like a million different parks? Okay, not a million, but 19 – which feels close enough, right? There’s Foundry, Canada, some places you’ve heard of but never been, like Skater Island or Shipyard. Oh, and Alcatraz, because why not?

And you’re not just sticking to the old stuff. Nah, there’s these new spots: Waterpark, Movie Studio—seriously, a movie studio?!—and Pinball. Why do I keep thinking of giant pinballs rolling over skaters? No idea. Weird mental tangent. Snap out of it.

Here’s a wild thought: once you think you’re the king or queen of the skate-verse, guess what? You dive back in with New Game+. Keeping those stats? Oh yeah. Getting bossy with new Pro Goals? Definitely. It’s like reaching the top of a mountain and realizing—oh wait, there’s another peak over there.

But hold on a second, got some wild ideas for a skatepark? Jump into Create-A-Park and stack those ramps and rails however your heart desires. Seriously, the customization options, it’s almost too much. Share it with other skateheads. Rate theirs. Who knows? Maybe you’ll find a park that makes you think, “This person gets me.”

And oh boy, don’t skate alone. Pull your crew in and the chaotic energy is palpable. You can practically hear the boards clattering like remote controls tossed during an argument about who’s the best skater. Multiplayer mode really is its own beast.

Rambling over. Or not. Was that everything? Probably missed something, but isn’t that life?
