Grab a skateboard and head to the streets for some action in TONY HAWK'S PRO SKATER. Try to score as many tricks as possible in the Halfpipe mode, where the biggest rewards come with complexity and originality. In the Tournament mode, you must compete against professional skaters in five different skate parks, navigating through the park and performing tricks. Hopefully, you will be able to beat the competition to the finish line. If your friends want in on the action, you can challenge them to a race with the Versus mode, where you can compete via the link cable. But don't enter the Versus mode unless you are prepared; the best preparation comes by playing the One-on-One mode against the computer. Get all of the skateboarding action you can handle with TONY HAWK'S PRO SKATER

You Will Never Find a More Addictive Game!Mar 26, 2000
What can I say about tony hawks pro skater except BUY IT! there is a plethora of skaters available all with 3 great specials including tony hawks 900. The courses and backround are great and make for high replayability. Although I have mastered the game by getting all the skate tapes I still enjoy the two player mode tremendously. different stages provide new challenges like roswell new mexico, a shopping mall and many more great courses you have to unlock. This game scores A+ with me it will with you too!

3 1/2 stars. Pretty good effortMay 25, 2000
This game is very good. Unlike alot of gameboy games when you've finished it it's still very addictive. The graphics are extremly good especially in the menu's. The half pipe enables you to pull of 9 visually stunning moves and then you can combine different moves for more points. The street racing competitions are not that great though as the contol on it is bad but the moves you can do are quite good. If your not a skatboard fan then this might not be for you.

Wowser!Jul 01, 2000
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater is an awesome game with good graphics (especially for Game Boy) and excellent game play. I especially enjoy the halfpipe mode, where you pick your character and ramp and pull off Backflips, Methods, Japan Airs, 180-900 degree rotations, and much more. The controls are simple and easy to learn. The tournament mode is a little wierd, and the controls for it are hard. I would have given the game 4 stars, but the fun and coolness of the halfpipe brought the rating up. This game also has a two player option (with the game link cable) which I have not been able to test. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater is an excellent game, even though it has some drawbacks. I'd recommend it to anyone, especially those who like 'boarding.

This is one of my favorite game boy gamesOct 27, 2000
This game is fun for game boy color.You can be other pro skaters besides tony hawk such as Bucky Lasek or Kareem cambel.Once you get the controls into your head its very fun,its amazing how you do so many trikcs on a game boy game like this one.My favorite mode is haif pipe because you can do 13 tricks including the 900 .I give this game 4 stars because its hard to do most of the grinds.

THIS IS THE BEST GAME EVERApr 08, 2000
This is the best game ever invented by gameboy. It has very good graphics for a gameboy. I think it's cool that you can skate against other skaters or your friends. I think it's also cool that you can skate in many diffrent places (3 verts and 6 streets and in competitions). I think you should definetly get this game if you like skateboarding!
