Townie Hawks: Pro Gangster

You will all have played a Tony Hawks: Pro Skater game at some point in your life. It is an unwritten rule of our generation. However with more spin-off games and companies trying to appeal to different and seemingly unreachable groups, I present to you – Townie Hawks: Pro Gangster. The Tony Hawks games revolve around skating but Pro Gangster will be based around robberies, mugging a looking well ‘ard.

The game will, of course, take place on a number of different levels. There are set to include:-

- The local high-street at night
- The Rockport shop in town
- A random bus shelter
- School. (Only after it is closed though)
- The dole office
- A sweatshop in Brighton


However no level would be complete without tasks or mission to undergo. And Townie Hawks: Pro Gangster is bursting with them.

Instead of collecting the S,K,A,T,E letters, like you do on all Tony Hawks games, you are to collect giant letters spelling I,N,N,I,T. However these cannot simply be obtained by walking over them, oh no, you have to steal a car from an old man in a wheelchair and drive the car into a community centre filled with girl guides. You kidnap several of the kids and use them as baseball bats to swipe at the giant letters until you have smashed it up, along with the girl guides face.

Another popular aspect of the Tony Hawks games in the trick contests, however Pro Gangster will do things a little differently. Instead of seeing how many cool tricks you can pull off in a 2-minute time limit you will see how many people you can needless wallop around the face with a crowbar. Extra marks will be given for combos (Look for bus queues and pension lines) and if you can assault AND rob someone you get a 500-point bonus.

Something else included in most of the Pro Skater games is helping someone with a task, but in the name of uttermost controversy, things will be a little warped in Townie Hawks. You will be helping someone, but for entirely different reasons. You will help your mate in his ploy to ram-raid the local cash and carry and steal booze, cigs and the cash register. You will have to put masking tape over the security cameras and beat the crap out of the 75 year old security guard who will try to stop you. Bonus points if you get his credit card too.

In Tony Hawks 4 you have to collect the hats of 5 policemen for one of the tasks. This will be paralleled into Pro Gangster in a more, erm, illegal way. You have to steal 5 old women’s handbags before the 60 seconds time limit expires. You can do this by any means, force, stealth or the old, “look over there” trick. Once you have the 5 bags you can rifle through and get any useful items like credit cards, pension books and curlers.

Of course various other violent and illegal activities will be included in the game, but it makes you wonder what Activision will lend their name to next!

Hope you enjoyed
