Thrasher: Skate and Destroy

[agusbmxarg]

Boris, the Maximum Remix version has more maps than the regular version (Carnival, one great minimarket nighttime map, and a few more).
The difference is only that one I believe, and a few different songs. Oh and somehow, the cheats do not work on the Maximum remix version (actually this version was the only one available here at that moment, the only cheats tha work are the ones that unlock maps and bikes).
But maybe that was because I don't know one single person in my city that had the PS1 running with original game copies.
How much does it add? Well, more maps = more fun, more lines, more spots more hype, and that nightime map I named was the one I used to play the most.
DaveMirraMaximumRemix was welded into my PS1 system, so were thrasher and some other classics, but not as much as dave's.

edit: I'd give my left nut to own a ps1 system again, with my favorite games, every PS1 memory I have involves great, funny, unforgettable moments, either by myself, or with friends.

Also in dm max remix the dm1 levels are changed alittle bit..

Thanks Pawn, that should help tide me over until the game arrives.
And agus - hmm, sounds interesting. The removal of cheat codes ensures that I will play the game properly and get the most out of it, so after I give my bank account a courtesy cooldown period I will get right back into buying games again and that will be one of them. And you should look into buying a PS1 off of eBay - I was originally going to do that, but I thought why not make the extra step to PS2 and give myself access to thousands of more games.
And Eternal - yeah, I am definitely intrigued in maximum remix hahahah. Also, thanks for your Thrasher montages - I have watched them to death in anticipation of the game coming in the mail.

I'm from argentina, buying stuff from eBay is very complicated. But I will some day check for used systems in the local market.
About the cheats, I totally understand you, but for example, my case, I already completed the game 100% several times when I was a kid, if I get the game again, I will use cheats to unlock all the maps, cuz freeride is what I like the most (like free skating), and cheating wont make me play unproperly.

get it....i love that game

I had some complications with the PS2 - the disc drive got messed up in the post and wouldn't spin anything, let alone read it.
So I am sending it back for a refund.
This morning however, I just walked down to my local EB Games (Australian version of Gamestop, just way more expensive) and got a preowned PS2.
It worked great, and is actually the latest model of the console before they stopped producing them. I have played the crap out of Mat Hoffman's Pro BMX - as it is the only game that has arrived.
And I am anxiously waiting for the arrival of the other games hahaha

Also a question for anyone who knows anything about it - 'Grind Session'. Apparently a lot of people like it more than THPS1 and THPS2, do you guys have any experience with it?

Thanks

Grind session was a decent game. Not as good as Thrasher but worth the buy.
