This is where I break our little chain. Because it would take a lot more than that to make me play Hawks again. I gave it all up after THUG.

For the record. though, any Hawks game after perhaps 4 should be summed up by this excellent sentence: because Neversoft pretty much perfected the formula by the second entry (a decade and a half ago), after which the only way forward was to either rehash the same routine or devise go-nowhere gimmicks...

Weirdly enough, the fact that the game was supposedly such a train wreck was the only reason I was even curious enough to spend a couple of bucks on a rental, because yeah, I feel like even a "good" Tony Hawk game in this era would just rehash what we already got three generations ago.

Thanks for reading. Always appreciated :)
