SPIDERMAN!?

I so didn't know he existed in game!!!

[foxhound1022]

Yeah, man. Spiderman is awesome.

@harper - Just playin'. I just give you a hard time, 'cause I like DC as much as you like N64.

alright, well I actually just beat it. Got the three gold metals and watched the credits roll.
But it's early in the month and I still have some loose end goals to go back and take care of. At any rate, I still love this damn game. I think 3 might be my favorite of the series. But this is close. After I go back and complete some of the goals I missed here, I'll probably play THPS1 and some others from the series as well.

How many TR games this year were you the first to complete or finish and say "I'm done" within 10 days?! Didn't you do this with GAW and Ys too?

Time is plentiful ya know

Those of you raggin on the DC controller can't roll with the fine lines and sensitive hair analog triggers. L-R buttons are overrated

haha. Actually dsheinem beat GAW and Ys before I did. In this case, THPS2 is just a game I've played through many times over the years. So it was like (sigh) "riding a bike" where most of it was just second nature to me. But like I said, I didn't 100% it either. I'm less inclined to do so because I've done that in the past. If I had never played this game before this month then I'd probably wanna stick to it, but being a favorite that I've spent so much time with I don't have as much motivation to re-prove anything to myself. For the rest of the month I'll also pop in the first THPS again, and ideally the third (though I realized I don't have a copy anymore!) and actually harper reminded me that I'd like to try the Spiderman game that Activision did back then as it's supposedly really good. Oh, and of course I plan to continue to fill up the cracks and 100% THPS2 if I can... though I'm a little less patient about collecting money in-game than when I was younger. To me that goal seems jerkish, as really the money is just there to level you up. So if you can beat the game without it, then it seems annoying to have to find it all just for the 100%.

You totally should try it. I'm not sure how well it has aged or anything but that was one of the few N64 games I had growing up and I loved it.

I played it for a bit a few months ago, It holds up, and it is fun.

[TEKTORO]

I'm not going to do that, I never have in all these years. It isn't like the game dramatically changes by using another skater haha.

A good thing at least is each pro skater has an exclusive ending when you beat the game with them,even Spiderman.

Cash goals & gap list are also some of the hardest things to complete in the game.

[harper]

I remember trying to get all of the gaps and I couldn't find like 10 of them. haha Other than that I finished the game 100%. I seriously used to play the hell out of THPS 2. That's why I can't really play it now. I don't think I ever finished 3 though, I didn't like it as much but maybe this would be a good month to give it more of a chance.
