Together Retro: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2

how have we gone 3 pages without mentioning how sad it is that THPS2 did not have an official soundtrack?

Never had a problem with the DC, PS1, or Xbox controllers, but playing on the N64 is just cumbersome. (Sorry, Harper)

Gladly revisited this on the DC today. I'm still at a point where a full playthrough of THPS 1, 2, or 3 takes less than a day. I got tired of the series beginning with 4, but the first three have always been fun to replay.

Speaking of which, though, does anyone else find that Skate 1 is the more fun skateboarding game to revisit? It pretty much killed the THPS series for me.

I forgot about THPS2 being April's Togther Retro game until I saw this thread. I'll be playing the Dreamcast version.

Nice to see all the DC players playing it there

So what would be everyone's favorite songs from the game?

One of mine would be
Bad Religion - You

Bring the Noise - Anthrax / Public Enemy

Does anyone remember where the secret tape is on the school level?

EDIT: found it but need to level up my air before I can reach it.

You should be able to do it when you first get to the level (unless the player you picked has extra low air). Get full speed and when you head down the ramp (follow the skid marks) boneless (double tap up before the ollie) off the boards to reach the roof.

Mos Def & the Mighty All Stars,but most of them get me going.Have to check the track list again to name some other favs.

The only one I can really stand is "Out with the Old" by Alley Life.

Eh, whateva. I like playing it on the N64 using the d-pad, has much better control than the joystick, and I don't even want to think about playing it with a Dreamcast controller. I don't care if I'm the outcast for playing it on the N64. haha
