Still, some of the levels remain neat and faithful representations of the major counterpart. The level structure and the textures don't really do the justice of expressing the levels greatly. In the other versions you see people and stuff in the levels but in this version none of that is there. Parts of the levels are missing and there's just nothing there. ![]() THPS4 has some really neat levels but if you've played the PS2, Gamecube or Xbox versions of this game than you will be disappointed because you can easily tell how limited they are. Occasionally you will find that fun goal but it just doesn't capture the fun that the other games in this series had. The goals in the major console versions of THPS4 were really good and enjoyable but in this version they just feel boring and half-assed. How this works in this game is that you go up to circles throughout the level that assign you to various goals like a high score, a high combo, collecting the skate letters, etc. Now you are free to do whatever instead of having a limited time to do so when you aren't in Free Skate. The new thing THPS4 brought is that the career sessions are no longer timed. All the levels have been reduced, the soundtrack is less than half of what it should be, the levels feel barren and empty, the goals are not much fun and the game look pretty much the same as the first Tony Hawk's Pro Skater did. That can't be said about the PS1 game however because it just doesn't feel like a big change. ![]() The game was everything a sequel should be. The graphics were enhanced, the levels were massive and full of stuff, the soundtrack was great, the new gameplay style was fantastic, and it was full of unlockables. Tony Hawk 4 for the other consoles was a blast. It really seems like it would be a loss of money for Activision but they are a major company so I guess they took the small risk. Well, I'm assuming the main reason is to get as much money as possible but I don't see why anyone would actually by this game granted they probably own one of the 3 major consoles during this time period, or at least a decent computer. So why did they make Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 for the Playstation? By this point the next generation had come and the days of the PS1 were officially over. By the time it came out everyone already had a PS2 which had already been out for 2 years and in addition to that the Gamecube and Xbox had been out for a year and this game was available on those consoles as well.
