November 2018 Game of the Month: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2

This game was a revolution in a lot of ways for me. Not only was I skateboarding at the time, but I had a musical revelation the moment the game booted up on my Dreamcast.

Good pick and a fun game! Runs okayyyyyy on Reicast with minor slowdowns on some of the bigger levels like NYC and beyond (so like the 3rd level), but I can't play it any other way! Slowdowns on this game make it difficult. Haha. Got that gold in Philadelphia though!

@hooperre Play the PS1 version, not sure why you are playing the Dreamcast version.

The soundtrack is one of my favorites. And that style of music is far from my favorite, I prefer Classic/Heartland Rock.

But regardless, the soundtrack is an absolute banger. My favorite track is: Bad Religion - You

When that track plays, that means shit gets real.

For the GOTM, I decided to 100% the career mode with Tony Hawk

I was playing the DC version because it's what I grew up with and it is hard for me to play it on PS1 instead. I was just sharing my experience using Reicast to play it. PS1 version is significantly more stable.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

If you don't know what thanksgiving is, it is where we stuff our fat faces with as much food as we can stomach. And being thankful for what we have.

Then tomorrow, people forget that to go beat the crap out of each other to save a few bucks on TV's

Hi, i wanted to play thps 2 psx1 Version on my pi 3b+. The Performance is quite good but i have one big problem at the moment. I am not able to combine Tricks by using the revert plus manual after finishing for example a grab trick in the halfpipe. I Was used to do so back in the days when i played on the PC. But some how Here it does not work. Does anyone have the same expeience? Or a solution?

FYI: the revert-plus option to combine tricks was a new feature introduced in THPS3. You can only combine tricks with manuals in THPS2.
