Tony Hawke is a man who looked like a whole generation of young guys, mastering the hard way of a skateboarder. This is a legendary person. No, Tony did nothing great. He did not carry out brilliant operations, did not participate in hostilities and was never a hero. He was a skateboarder. This was not just a hobby, but the life of Tony. In his youth, he spent an incredible amount of time mastering complex and extremely dangerous tricks. Falling, he got up and started again. His optimism, ideology and desire to be the best inspired millions of people around the world. Given this, it is not surprising that a computer game was named in his honor.
Be like a legend
They wanted to be like Tony Hawk and still wish many. These skateboarding fans are divided into two large groups. The first masters the skate in practice. They train not for months, but for years. Learn and create new tricks. They win competitions or get injuries of various severity. This group of people is distributed almost all over the world and continues to develop the Hawke business.
The second large group of fans prefers the virtual world to the real. Surprisingly, this community consists of a lot more people than the previous one. The computer universe may not seem so serious, but it does not become less complicated from this. Tony Hawke suffered many injuries in his training. In the virtual world, the process of discovering new skills cannot be harmful. Unless furniture and appliances will suffer from this, because sometimes it is quite difficult. A great opportunity to follow a dream without having a natural predisposition to sports. Moreover, for people with disabilities this is the only option.
These groups are very different, but they are united in one thing - in an effort to achieve incredible heights and get closer to Tony Hawk. Having spent a lot of time on training, many manage to do it. However, no one could become better.
The legend of virtual skateboarding
Computer games are fun for all ages. This simple and fun activity is available to everyone. If a person does not like this, it means that he just has not yet found the very game that could become a guide to the amazing virtual world of endless possibilities.
To be honest, sport is not for everyone. Especially skateboarding. People with a poor sense of balance can hardly master even the ability not to fall off the “board”, and there can be no talk of tricks at all. People with disabilities who can only dream of their own skateboard are now able to not only ride it, but also win. The game about Tony Hawke will not only introduce gamers to the culture of this sport, but also teach the basics.
This computer project has become a true legend. The first part was innovative and progressive. Yes, the graphics there are not pleasant, but at one time it pleased fans to play. It would seem that the game is only for computers, but the controls are completely borrowed from game consoles. What undoubtedly pleased the old-school console players.
Very difficult game
Tony Hawk Proskater is an extremely complex computer universe. No, you don’t have to kill anyone in it. Just win is enough. To do this, you need to use tricks, and there are a lot of them. In addition, each of the tricks is a complex combination of keyboard shortcuts. The more complex the skill, the more likely it is to play, "like a piano." This expression among gamers means that you have to use too many buttons. There are a lot of skills, and only the one who will remember and master all the unique skills wins.
Each of the levels is built in such a way as to become a real test, and fan modifications for this project make it much more difficult. Sometimes it’s hard to say whether it’s possible to go through some add-ons created by fans of the original universe.
In all parts of the series, the complexity of the gameplay increases with each new level. There is no respite at all. Each next step is a new test, a real test of the user's abilities. The better the skill, the more new abilities!
Benefit
It is no secret that many games not only entertain, but also teach. Every computer universe is beneficial. In terms of providing a positive impact on gamers, sports games have always been in the lead. It is also interesting that these days it is the cyber sports disciplines that are most useful.
The fact is that while watching someone else's gameplay, you can spy on a unique and rare combination, tactics or even strategy. Understand it, and then use it in practice. Those projects are especially good for people, the knowledge of which can be applied in reality. In this regard, “Tony Hawk” is 2 steps ahead of any other computer game. Having carefully studied the trick and examined in detail the mechanics of the movements, the skater can begin to train in the real world.
This is especially effective when a person enters the game world not for the purpose of having fun, but for searching for new opportunities.
More games - more buzz!
To say that the game about Tony was popular is to say nothing. The success was so noticeable that the developers released more than 2 parts and a lot of additions to the main project. In addition, fans themselves began to create exclusive content that extends the life of the wonderful series. Perhaps, such community activity is the best gratitude for any computer game.
