I made this one star because if your like me i dont read too many 5 start reviews because everyone has the same opinion, i tend to look at only the bad reviews, this isnt a bad review but keep reading. I am an ex skater, currently practicing architect. I bought the first version and thought TOny 1 was off the hook, i was a bit leery about the sequel because the developers usually [mess] it up. However, this game is far more better then Tony 1. If the soundtrack doesnt get you into the game i dont know what will, killer soundtrack. The skaters are impecable with more control for the user. I swear playing with Cab takes me back to the bones brigade days!Dude, what happened to Lance. The levels are phat and much bigger. Whoever says that this game [isn't good] should just throw away they're playstation. Hey guys get working on Tony 3, and bring back the other old school skaters.
