Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 Review

[Antwan]

Not asking you to accept it as a high quality product Emmit.
More like, putting yourself in his situation.
Involved in skateboarding but not so much in games.
Saying, do the best you can and I'll love it unconditionally.
Again, Tony's mindset as I've observed it, could be wrong but it sounds right.. To me.

what if blackbox told Variflex to make some boards to include with Skate. special editions saying, "do the best you can and ill love it unconditionally?"

that would show that they didn't really care about the finished product.

you can make any excuse you want for Tony but it's obvious he doesn't give a shit about the quality of the game with his name on it.

Haha.. I'll give you that.
I guess I don't want to see it like other franchises.
There aren't any others I can think of with a sort of just "hype man."
It may be the only role he plays as far as the games go.

Then the talk of the old games made me think.
They weren't out to prove anything and We weren't out to judge.
Any flaws the older games had I wouldn't remember personally.
Which brought me to that mindset..
Maybe just holding on to the series for dear life.
Still thinking about the old ones and their successes.
Probably pretty stoked with skate out of the picture.
At least when it was in the early stages anyway.

This guy has made the closest thing to a video review that I would have made.
