Thrasher skate and destroy

[Ayreon]

Thrasher skate and destroy 2?

How sick would that be? I was going through the games section on the rockstar games website and it was listed. NEVER knew they made that game.

Imagine how sick it would be if they made another one. R* only puts out amazing games and they are so loyal to their fan base. Not to mention Demzilla told me how good the last one was. Not to mention that their table tennis game used joystick controls. So they have experience with it.




Ive been participating in this contest but I started mentioning the thrasher games in the tweet. ALL OF YOU DO THE SAME!

You never know. Let's show R* that there is a market for this type of game. Lets show them that we want it. Add you replys here and Ill link them. Tell R* how EA is shitting on us with the reel being down.

With this contest going on they will be looking at the twitter account regularly.

Ayreon.

lets talk...

thrasher made you skate a ledge/rail at the right angle so you wouldnt fall over the other side from balance issues.

thrasher utilizes a "catch" type feature in there "hardcore"mode.
(do w.e. you want in the air but you must hit button to prepare for landing)
("hardcore mode" is our equivalent but like skate. you choose weather to use the feature or not.)

in thrasher you can skate "true switch"
(skate. equivalent to useing the gameplay controls backwards while rolling backwards)
(in thrasher you set up a trick by holding down buttons, if you bumbed off something you could roll backwards set up in a more realistic type manner for switch/fakie tricks. ex. nollie heel becomes switch heel. works the same for grinds, grabs, w.e.)

in thrasher you push to control your speed.
(slow, fast, baby push)

notes.
i did not play any tony hawk game after 2, because of thrasher.
i did not purchase another skateboarding game till a week before the ea skate 1 demo.
i played thrasher every single week since the day it came out to the day of the skate 1 demo.
(i cut off my last game probably 20 mins before the demo finished downloading)

if i had a controller i would be playing the game on my pc right now.




watching it gives you no satisfaction of how hard the accomplishment actually is.
i highly suggest you read the wiki controls section.

it could blow your mind thinking about what buttons needed to be held or comboed in order to do things.

example.
a backside flip is JUST holding down three buttons and releasing.

but a kickflip backside crook is hold triangle (release) + hold right , l1, x
thats tapping one buttons to holding three buttons after.

at points in the game you could be holding down 5 buttons.
nollie backside 180 heelflip
nollie - l1, 180 - cir, r1 - backside, tri - kickflip, left on dpad - heelflip. (release)


the game is amazing to me still to this day.
