Dear bunnybcitu, Thrasher was and still is the best skateboarding game that came out before the Skate series. If anyone is "retarded", then I nominate you for recommending half of the shit in your post. THPS while a fun series of games was nothing more than a platformer game disguised in a skateboarding motif in most of its iterations. What people liked about Thrasher was that it actually was about skateboarding, presented itself in a semi-realistic progression of becoming a Pro Skater, and the complexity in it's controls related to the complexity of actual tricks. It was a skateboarding game made for skateboarders and not specifically aimed at gamers like THPS was.
Razor was a shit game made by a terrible fucking dev team. Shaba sucked ass.
Aggressive Inline was a fun game for the fruitbooting arcade crowd.
Disney Extreme was a weakass kids game. It also did not use the Apocalypse 3.0 Engine like THPS4, but they were similar.
X Games Skateboarding was trash made by another terrible dev team. Konami Hawaii sucked ass.
Evo Skateboarding did have potential, but the game was shit nonetheless. It was another Konami Hawaii suckfest.
Mtv Snowboarding was trash. If you recommend old snowboard games then the best choices are ESPN Snowboarding or 1080 Snowboarding. SSX is only for arcade crowd.
BMX XXX... It was suppose to be Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX 3 until Todd Robinson and the fuckwads at Acclaim screwed us over by making us add the Jackass crowd shit.
And no, you didn't come off biased. You just came off like a dumbass.
