Yes, well. I went back to Classic Mode, and finished it off. The rest of the game was pretty easy – even getting 1,500,000 points on the final “The Triangle” level wasn’t too hard. Nothing as hard as Downhill Jam, anyway. Levels along the way included Los Angeles and Canada (from THPS3) and Boston. It was a bit bizarre playing through all the old levels again.

It seems I wasn’t quite as close to the end of the game as I’d thought. There was actually more to do in Skatopia. Bam had to trigger five sets of giant fireworks by doing assorted tricks on them (the giant roman candle and the stacked boxes being the hardest), and after that I had to skate Tony from the top of the level to the bottom, collecting dogs on the way. Yes, really. And that STILL wasn’t all – …

Skatopia done! Almost! Nearly! Probably. I managed to find two more characters, and complete a few more goals that I previously couldn’t do. That gave me enough points to move on to the next bit – fireworks with Bam. Didn’t get time to do that though, but hopefully that is all that is left.

Finished off N’orlins, witch involved waking the dead again, and breaking some signs and jumping over rubish and mowing down zombies. And stuff. I then had to do a mini-challenge thing, with acid dropping from a helicopter and transferring over it again later. Luckily, it wasn’t too hard. After that, it was on to “Skatopia” (which is “skate-opia”, before you suggest something else). It’s not easy at all. After an hour, I’d managed 50/1000 points, and I can’t even see …

After Berlin was Australia (note it doesn’t tell you where in Australia), and amongst other things I got to ride a go-kart, set fire to some builders, scares some seagulls, and skate around as a guy with a barbeque stuck to his front and a parasol on his head. Then it was over to New Orleans (pre-flood, it seems) where I had to wake the dead, skate in Hell, and then scoot around as a Papa Lazarou-type character on a …

Gah. It seems that you can jump up and grab the top of the billboard, by holding down the R button, and then you can tag it while you hang there. Tch. I now have enough points to move on to the next city, but I might just try and get a few more here before doing so – I only have one more fag machine to destroy (them evil smoking Germans, eh?) and I’ve just found the “tourist trail” …

Moved on to Barcelona, and completed enough goals there to move on. Some were pretty rubbish, and Steve-O on his Rodeo Bull was just ridiculous. Not really liking it as much as THUG at the moment. Perhaps I should have played Classic Mode and not Story Mode. Ah well. Then it was off to Berlin, and despite the racial stereotypes grating after about five seconds (and the worst faux-German accents ever), I’ve only got a couple more goals to do. …

After the success of last weekend’s Hawking, I started up this one today. Well, since American Wasteland is out now, I’d better get on it anyway. You start off in the Warehouse. Again. Never seen that level in a TH game before. Racked up most of my stats while I was there, and did the “training” things, which were somewhat menial given the number of TH games I’ve played over the years. “Perform three Ollies!”. How difficult. Then moved on …

SUPARBEST! The main levels were actually very easy. Alarmingly easy, especially as I’m sure I found it frustratingly hard when I played it last year. There were a few difficult goals to get, such as the get-all-the-cameras one in Moscow, and a skitching one in San Diego, but on the whole they were pretty easy. Moscow was a bit odd though, what with the Skate Theft Auto girl-collection car bit, and the Tony Hawk’s Splinter Cell goal, which was totally …

Well, after completing the DS game earlier, I decided to go back to this, which I’d previously stopped playing after reaching Tampa some 15 months ago. And it was alarmingly easy to just drop back into after all this time. Finished off Tampa, and made a start on San Diego after it, mainly just bumping up stats as I’d just been made an “Am”.
