 Excellent gameNov 12, 2003
This is a fantastic game. Great graphics, perfect physics, nice music, lots to do, and story mode is a challenge but you can always free skate and just enjoy the game - or play arcade mode for a quick sk8 fix. As your little in-game character would say, "Rockin'!"

 if you're a veteran gamer looking for a fun game on the go..Jun 09, 2004
By Dogg Stlyz
Dont buy this game!!!I have to admit...when i first started it up, i was thinking: wow, pretty cool. Pretty basic graphics, but alright. And then i was like: hey, the controls are pretty intuitive. Theyre pretty much like the console versions. That's a bonus. And then: oh cool, i can make a custom skater and a custom board with wording on it and stuff. Then the novetly wore off.
1) The music is beyond horrible and annoying. Honestly, im never one to really care about video game music, but this is really really bad. You'll play the game with the music off more often that with it on, trust me. It is unbearable. Even the sound effects are really rough and annoying.
2) The gameplay is just plain bad. All you ever do are the same goals over and over and over again. And the worst part is trying to unlock different parts of each level. And the money system is boring...all you can buy are pads and drinks. I will admit, the first level was cool...i enjoyed it very much. But when you start moving on the other levels you start to see a pattern -- the levels are all the same, but actually get worse somehow.
3) the graphics are really really sub-par compared to other GBA games...you can barely see the difference between one skater and another. And the skate parks are just really plain, bland, nothing cool. If you can get this game for $5, go ahead. It'll give you about that much enjoyable gameplay. Otherwise, dont even think about it. I thought it would be cool, considering i've loved all of the console tony hawks. I knew it wasnt going to be the same at all, but i was still expecting it to be fun. It isnt fun after the first level. Just the same old levels and goals recycled over and over. Do yourself a favor and get Advance Wars 2 or Yoshi's Island or Metroid: Zero Mission.

It RocksMay 04, 2004
Tony Hawk's Underground has easy controls and is fun to play. It has a lot of variety in tricks and levels. The carrer mode is totally awsome. My only complaint is that some of the goals that you need to pass are hard to pass. The instructions on some are very vauge. Overall, the game is great and a ton of fun.

GBA: Tony Hawks UndergroundMar 01, 2004
By Irina
Well , this game has many good features . It has 17 famous skaters . It has 10 levels : New Jersey , Mall , Warehouse , Battery Park , Bronx , Hangar , Santa Monica , Hollywood , San Diego , Slam City Jam . It has tons of moves . You can buy Helmets , Knee Pads , Drinks and Snack Bars at SkateShop . You will earn cash helping people . Or playing H.O.R.S.E. . Heres the bad things about this game : you will need to complete goals to unlock certain areas in the level , the description of goals you need to complete is worst ! You will spend weeks trying to understand what they meant . But dont quit ! You will get the goals after trying like 100 times . So after all i give this game 2 thumbs up as the best skate game for GBA . Go get it !
