I got Tony Hawks 3 for Christmas, and have been laying throughly. I've already nearly completed it, and I'm a bit dissappointed. It's not as long as I imagined it to be, and after playing TH4 to death, I realised how short TH's really were before the 4th.

Th 3 seemed to have had very little more than TH2, and only slight graphical improvement. It seems to me that TH3 was rushed out to try and get it 'secured' in the Next - Gen consoles.

I just hope that TH5 isn't made as quickly and made almost Identical to its predcessor, but i fear it will. they've hit a winning formula and theyll probably stick with it.

But what could they do to improve TH games quality? What ELSE could they add?

tony hawk 3 isnt that like old? lol

Perhaps make it so that you can actually create your skater, teach him the tricks (ie, instead of X (on the PS2) to ollie, it'd be X,O,X until they learn it properly, when it becomes X, and as you get better, the Pro Skaters invite you to a challenge. You beat them, and you unlock them in this Career mode, Free ride, etc. Oh, and the actual game has the basics of THPS4.

If you know what I mean.

No, TH4's Combo challenge on the Chicago level is one where , if you press a button even lightly, your mork is all out of the window. indeed.
