TONY HAWK. He’s the best guy ever! Well, maybe Tom Jones is better. Hmm. But he’s still GREAT, and his games (aside from RIDE, but we’ll just forget that one…) are GREAT.

You’ve got fast planes, slow planes, and helicopters, and you draw their flight path in. If they crash, game over. Great fun, …
