10 Obvious Video Game Remasters The Industry Is Ignoring
5. Tony Hawk's Underground
With EA seemingly throwing the Skate series in the bin - despite constant calls for a fourth instalment - there is certainly a space in the market for a new skateboarding game, and why not a return to one of the most beloved entries in the series?
Tony Hawk's Underground follows the protagonist as you, alongside long-time best friend Eric Sparrow, seek to get out of the New Jersey suburbs and rise to prominence in the skating world.
After impressing pro skater Chad Muska, earning your first sponsorship and creating a demo, you and Eric begin your journey around the USA and even reach Russia.
Whilst many skating games focus their plots solely on earning money and sponsors, Underground features quite an interesting storyline where Eric claims an insane trick you performed as his own. What follows is a sabotage of your pro career, which results in your expulsion from the skate team and the pro scene, and you must fight your way back to the top.
It's a fantastic title full of fun cameos, interesting settings, fast-paced skating and some brilliant Jackass-inspired humour.
Bring back the glory days of skateboarding in video games!
