Compared to that video, I would say everyone does, that seems like hacks to me.

Nice combos in that video that is very possible with the skill level of some of these diehard gamers that spend days playing a game without resting.

His score went from 15,548 points to over 25,000,000 points from that insane combo streak. It's all a matter of focus, timing, skill and luck. I believe it.

Customize create a character

So I just figured out how to create my own character. Is there any way to use all of those skill points I built up playing as Hawk or should I just start a new game?

You just go through the same levels and collect the skill point badges that are scattered around again. When you start with a new skater, career mode stuff like "collect SKATE" and other goals remain fulfilled across every character. But those skill points come back to collect anew.

Oh, so the only way I was receiving those skill points was by collecting those badges? I thought I was getting some from passing certain goals or leveling up as well. If that's the case, that seems easy enough to go back and get those. Thanks

I think it took me more than a day to understand where skill points were coming from. I thought the badges increased my score during the run or something. And then I was confused when I was getting new goals and kept at 0 remaining stat points.

I think I'm okay with the level of re-playability on career mode stuff for now. Just going back through to collect stat points with each character seems like enough. And it all seems worthwhile for not having to ever go back and collect the secret tape in Downhill Jam again. Funk that nearly-broken level.

Almost done with THPS1 levels! Still need to get a few high score goals and collect three gold medals. And collect the stat point in Chicago competition level. It was a lot easier to jump that high in the original game.

I’ve done all levels with Tony. Want to replay as Bob but all levels are complete. This has to be a mistake? What have I done wrong?

Each skater has their own set of challenges, which I guess is supposed to replace playing the game through with each skater. You can go back and get the stat points with each skater, too (which is one of the challenges by the looks of it).

You can also speed run the levels, which is like seeing how fast you can do all the goals in a particular level, so I suppose that’s one way of redoing the levels.

I played through my first time as Rodney Mullen, then went back with Tony Hawk and collected the stat points for him, as well as some of the V icons I missed the first time.

I hate when I spot that 1 thing missing (last letter in Skate, Bells, School Bells, etc.) but there is only 3-5 seconds left and cant get it

On another note some of these challenges are insane. Who is spending 10 hrs in lip or manual!?

[Goodintentions]

remember when you are in a manual or a lip or a grind you can double tap square , circle , or triangle and it will change to another trick and add to multiplier. That is one of hte keys to large combo scores as well

[Joeker]

^ Thats how I got all my Sick Scores, High Combos

[AlucardDracula]

Cant wait till I have the cash to pick this up heard its awesome.

Finally got 100% challenges and medals for both games. The biggest pain for me was Venice Beach landing that 1st VB transfer and getting the secret tape there too.

For the life of me, I could not figure out the third rooftop gap on the Downtown level, so I had to look it up. That's ridiculous that you have to grind the rail upon landing for it to count. How the hell was I supposed to know that?

I keep overshooting the rail, it is annoying me, that is the last goal I have on that map.

I haven't even tried it yet. I looked it up after I got done playing last night. Hopefully it doesn't give me too much of a problem...hopefully.

Don’t know if this will help, but worth remembering that you can take stat points away after you’ve put them on.

In some cases it’s worth resdistributing your stats depending on what challenge or collectible you’re trying. If you’ve put a load of points in to Hangtime, Air, Ollie, etc. you can easily overshoot stuff. Just take them off, try the challenge again, then add them all back in when you’re done.

Yeah I saw someone else say to do that, I will give it a shot. Nothing worse than making it all the way to the top, then not landing the jump lol

Same! Seriously took me like 6 tries before I realized I had to grind that rail down there.

What are the V icons for?

I believe a logo and a deck.

Finding all the alien plushies was a cooler reward.
