TONY HAWK’S PRO SKATER 5

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater used to be a fiercely beloved and popular franchise back when it was at its peak, but with all things that are not Call of Duty, Activision just ran it into the ground. It was a disastrous game from a technical standpoint, riddled with so many bugs, frame rate issues, and just poor visuals all around that it was frankly hard to believe that it had been allowed to launch in the state that it did. Even beyond the technical issues, it was a plain and uninspired experience, marred by bland environments, unengaging gameplay, and some of the most boring levels we’ve ever seen in a Tony Hawk game.
