Since 1999 "The Birdman" (Tony Hawk) has been dominating the best seller charts with the Pro Skater games and more recently, the Tony Hawk Underground edition, otherwise known as "THUG".

Not surprisingly "Santa Hawk" has dropped another "egg" into the arsenal of skate games. It's called Tony Hawk's Underground 2, or THUG2.

Or when your weight transfer is too heavy on the back wheels, the result is a frantic mid air "backstroke", followed by you landing flat on your back and possibly rupturing your liver and fracturing your vestigial tail. The only minor issue I had with the gameplay was that object detection was hit and miss in some situations, and needs a bit of work, but it doesn't interfere (too much) with the game as a whole.

Tony Hawk's Underground 2 is like a caffeinated sugar buzz with a dash of red cordial. It's played at million miles per hour and usually ends in a body jarring, bone snapping, blood spraying smack! There's so much to the game it's hard to describe and explain it all from the confines of this HTML page, but suffice it to say that Neversoft has done it again.
