While the game may be milked yet again for the launch of the PS5, is still a decent GTA title. With a nice cast of characters to go along with a great blockbuster of a story, to the music that fits with the scenery of Los Santos, to the solid gameplay, it's a nice GTA title. The only problem is with the grindy online mode.

An overall improvement from the previous two games in the series, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5. Vicarious Visions did what Robomodo couldn't fail to improve which was gameplay and looked at the Neversoft source code pretty well. The gameplay feels looks the previous two games (THPS1 and THPS2) with some added gameplay mechanics from the later installments including wall plants, spine transfers, acid drops, and more. They also brought back the old cast (Tony Hawk, Steve Caballero, Bob Burnquist, and Rodney Mullen just name a few) along with some new skaters (Leo Baker, Aori Nishimura, Leticia Bufoni (was in THPS5), Lizzie Armanto (was also in THPS5), etc.) in there as well which is pretty nice. The only negative I have is the online play. It needs to have a private lobby feature and the ability to play on custom parks. Overall, it's a pretty nice remaster of the first two games you came to enjoy and love.

I'm going to give 2k Sports the benefit of the doubt here, NBA 2k is honestly better than Madden NFL 21 and other sports games out there despite not being the most popular sport in the world. But other than that, this game doesn't have anything new here to offer (besides MyCareer and the new Neighborhood). MyLeague and MyGM are still the same but nothing new is added. The gameplay feels much like the same except the shot meter is way different and much harder to master. There also new historic teams added including the 2016-17 Golden State Warriors and 2018-19 Toronto Raptors, but there are some players on the historic team's missing. So overall, this game is pretty much the same as last year. I only recommend this game if you are a hardcore NBA fan and want to play some MyPark with your friends or if you want to play with your favorite NBA team online or in MyCareer. Or just you pass on this version and wait for the PS5/ XBOX Series X/ XBOX Series S comes out.
