Tony Hawks Pro Skater
 

I remember being a little kid and playing Tony Hawks Pro Skater on my Gamecube and really digging the music. I never thought to actually listen to it. I've been into punk music for a couple years and hearing Millencolin and Goldfinger and thinking back to how happy I was back then makes me smile. Does anyone else remember playing this game? Share your stories.

I feel old.

Also, we have a media subforum where we post about games and such. Is this thread more about the music in the game, or the game itself? If it's the music, then I'll edit the title. If not, I'll move the thread.

I guess move the thread? I'm not sure, you decide if its about enjoying the music or the game.

It's your thread. If you want it to be about the music in the THPS games, then that's what it can be. If you want to talk about the game, then so be it. It just needs to be in the media forum if it's just about the game, because we like to keep our music sections about music.

Edit:
I'll just move it.

Ahh my youth. I played the N64 and PSone editions of the game. It was my first introduction to Rage Against the Machine. :)

Thanks

Haha, yes. When I was little, skateboard video games looked like this:

The music tended to be a limited range of bleeping and farting type noises, but I guess in a lot of ways those sounds did influence my taste.

I can thank Tony Hawk games for introducing me to Del, before I appreciated hiphop...

Went from guilty pleasure to pleasure real quick.

Also, I have a soft spot for that one CKY song... but don't remember the name...

The music in the Tony Hawk games usually annoyed me, especially the music from the second game. The song I found the most annoying was one that went something like "and this is what it's like when worlds collide" just before it hit its stupid refrain. I don't know who plays it, but I hope it was cheap.

Blaergh!
