Now that would be a pretty short lived game - because it would be boring, so they've done quite a bit to spice up this concept of skate around an do tricks. So in simple game play, it's all about how many points you can amass. assuming you didn't fall falt on your face and break your nose. It's a bit like Figure Skating - once you're in the air, you can hit some buttons and wiggle the D-Pad to pull off tricks - then the mystery unseen judges give you points (from 50 to 5000) depending on the skill and difficulty of the trick. And not just skateboarding that gets you down the shops fast - skateboarding where you jump onto kerbs, off ramps, around strange quarter circles, swimming pools and poles scattered around the landscapes. So for everyone who's never heard of the Tony Hawk series (Hi Dad!), what is it all about? Skateboarding. Tony Hawk has probably the best 3-D look of all the N-Gage games to date (Feb 2004) and was clearly the "best game" available when the N-Gage was launched in Oct 2003. Compared to any of the other 3-d and 3-d Style games on the N-Gage (Tomb Raider, Red Faction, etc). Let's get the good news out of the way first. No not Tony Hawks the UK comedian who once hitch hiked round Ireland with a Fridge (thanks to a bet with Arthur Smith I believe), but Tony Hawk, the American who gets paid to fly through the air with a little plank of wood and four tiny wheels.
