Ok, with those character models, this really does look like an MDickie game.

Wow, when the camera cuts as you go up a ramp it is ridiculously disorienting. For a while during this video I thought your character was suddenly on an invisible plane a foot off the ground when it was actually the wall I was looking at...

when I read the title I was hoping for a game about fighting with swords on skateboards.

The camera movement when you jump is making me sick...

It's not as noticeable during gameplay thankfully. Dunno whether it's because I was controlling it so I knew when to anticipate it or what. But yeah, it still sucks.

I heard this is so call " Video Game Motion Sickness". It is caused when there is a disconnect between what your eyes are seeing and what your body is feeling.Especially on this type of "Simulation" game. If the camera movement is not well adjusted, it will easily cause the sickness.

I was (am) drunk while listening and it was pretty bad. That transition was insanely painful for some reason. After watching I found my copy so I'm going to try it out. It's installing right now. My brother is a fellow collector and fan, and will probably crack up when he finds out he can play it tomorrow. Hope you had a merry Christmas and have a happy new year's eve, Clint! I'd love to share a beer and talk about old games with you one day.

Two words. Nitro Family. If I've ever played a bad PC game it's that. Not to mention there are literally no reviews anywhere for it.

god, that camera when you go up in the air from a halfpipe is terrible, the transition is so bad that it just looks like the floor glitched away into a big grey mess. i actually saw a jewel case copy of this game in a thrift shortly after your review for the first game, and having watched this review i feel even more validated for having passed it up

The camera in this one feels like it's on a long string attached to the player, and it just spins out of control when jumping... It's sickening to watch o-o

This sequel is a massivs improvement to its predecessor. Maybe after 50 more sequels this series could be playable... Kickstarter, anyone? Nah! But now we need to see Country Justice. ;-)

Hope you could do "Congo" the movie game in the future. :D

They could have at least put real Ska in this one. :|

Just btw Spyro 3 has awesome skating minigame. I spent more time playing it than the actual game trying to perfect all tricks. :D

Had you ever heard of Head Games' Gear Head Garage? That was one of my favorite games to play on my old XP.

I see the Genesis3D game engine web page doesn't show any screenshots from this game...

I love how there no landing animation. You're in the air and then all of a sudden you're flat on the ground

Can you not get off your board and walk in this one?

Oh God! I honestly think this game is WORSE than the first one. Most notably because of the camera movement. I felt physically ill every time you went up on the halfpipe in the video. Secondly, the fact that this game isn't a trainwreck of a bad game, and just boringly mediocre, means it holds zero playability. Atleast the first one had that shock value to pique people's morbid curiosity. And also the fact that Tony Hawk existed by this point kinda hurts it too.

The thing I notice that really puts me off this one is the camera angle on the tricks. Instead of tracking it just follows the player until you can't see where to land because the world goes topsy turvey. Glad the likes of Tony Hawk didn't give skateboarding games his name of approval until a decent developer made one that worked.

New Series Idea: Games that make me want to run around blindfolded in highway traffic

2:39 - Is one of those skateboards using the floating man in business suit character from Webdings? They must have been really desperate to come up with some designs.

Speaking of "value software", could you review Roller Coaster Factory 3 from ValuSoft?

Now I want to see more of the Silverfish Studios titles on LGR. I mean after this you'd think they'd be perfecting their craft, making beautifully well done games that would make titles like Duke Nukem 3D jealous.

You probably hear this a lot, but dear god these reviews are addictive.

I'll give it one thing... That "RESTRICTED AREA" police tape is kind of a clever way of saying that the level is locked... Kind of.

3:41 -- Oh my god... Now I'm picturing Torgo on a skateboard. ... XD

Why would Activision have made this when Tony Hawk was already on their roster? If a restaurant has an amazing burger, why add a cheaper priced burger made from questionable meat sources that may also give someone food poisoning. That's just risking a health inspector crackdown and loss of customers.

i like how the free ride option flickers randomly in the menu, even the menus are glitchy

They could have spiced this game up so much. Have cheering crowds in the background, babes you can flirt with, flashing party lights on the ceiling, smoke machine, a psycho biker chasing you, colorful graffiti on the wall,...this is just hideously bland.

Tony Hawk's Discount Skater can be found at any Dollar General store near you !!!

Hey LGR, seeing how much you like the series, will you do a video on Carmageddon: Reincarnation soon? (Assuming it's playable for you at its current state...)

You think you'll ever do a video for odd PC ports like the PC version of twisted metal 2? I think it would be interesting to watch. Also what about a review of the 2003 game Freelancer?

The perspective shift when going up a jump was making me sick. I gotta say, it's surprising how this terrible stuff gets made. I sincerely feel bad for people who had to spend months working on this.

Wow LGR, this is the first time i see you "Hate" a game i didnt thought i was posible, allways try to be fair and positive then reviewing, that was why i started watching, plus the awesome voice ^^. but in some way i still injoyed this review, because even though it was clearly a pile of **** you stayed to the facts as allways 'Excellent job my friend, cant wait to see what happens next time :)

:D - well it seems to be a bit better then. Maybe other game series could be done like this also, as you do with The Sims etc? Just a thought. Also, it seems they missed out a word on the blurb. It should have said 'our #1 skateboarding game', perhaps? ('Our' being Silverfish, that is). That first game adds to the fact that most things with 'extreme' and 'ultimate' usually means the exact opposite also, methinks. Good review anyway Clint!

The reason that Silver Fish Studios makes such horrible games is because the team knows almost nothing about programming and they rush the games. They spend a few hours per week at most on there games and finish them within a month, and they dont know anything about programming they just copy and paste scripts from other games and download free models and try to make it into there own game ( doesnt turn out very well )

Oh geez, why is the FOV so low? Combined with the awful HUD, jerky camera and complete lack of lighting, it's actually pretty naueating.

"I have no idea what the criminal theme is about." Maybe it's because the skaters were arrested due to their involvement with the first game, which is indeed a felony:D" this is why i come here. You never fail, LGR.

Our requests were answered!

A lot of people here are saying this game's camera makes them sick, I think they mean how it flips during vertical ramps, but I'm sure it's fine when you actually play the game and you control when it happens. Actually, I love how it makes the player lose track of which way is down, this seems like it would be tricky but also very true to life, and with some polish it could even be pretty fun. Sadly polish is what the game most lacks, which I see as especially unfortunate since skate games that nail the vertical ramp aspect are about 75% of the way to greatness.

So you gonna do Country Justice next? :P

You should do a lets play of the tony hawk underground series as duke nukem

Was that Charglezz Firecaster?

Even the CD cover looks a little Tony Hawks Pro Skater.

I still can't tell what is happening in time or space when you go into the ramps

Those camera angles makes me feel awful inside :(

Is it just me or does the guy with the skates look vaguely like Commander Keen?

This looks like if MDickie made a skateboarding game.

It's a pity how much potential this game had. It there wasn't such bad animations and graphic's, this could of been a pretty good game overall.

2:40 isn't that skateboard design an emoji?

seeing this, skate 3 looks like heaven

Desperate Housewives game next!!! Pleaseee =D

"maybe they were arrested for the first game, which is indeed a felony" haha

You know what else is value priced? Delta Force.

I think Activision bought the company, saw how abysmal B&B was, and gave the team the source code to Tony Hawk. They still managed to botch the whole thing from top to bottom, but you can see from the behavior that the sequel clearly has Tony Hawk DNA in it.

Suddenly, a wild LGR video appeared in my subscriptions. Then there's no time to waste! Anyway, great video! Keep being awesome!

Does that tall black guy in the game look like Wasabi from Big Hero 6, or is it just me?

I can't put my finger on why I like your videos, I just know I do, and this is no exception. I love the line about a punch to the face.

How after getting sponsored by Activision, Powerbar, and Mountain Dew... how the hell did Silverfish get the job of creating this sequel after what they put out? It blows my mind!

The levels look like prototypes to what would be the actual levels in THPS 1 and 2.

It's worth pointing out that Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 was published under the Activision Value label on PC at around the same time as this, so who knows who this game was for.

@LGR

No, THPS2 was released by Activision proper and at full price. Activision Value was something quite different and their games were half the normal cost. It later had its own subdivision known as Activision o2, but still quite separate from Activision Value :)

Lazy Game Reviews I might be wrong about the timeframe (I think it was around the release of THPS3), but I'm sure it was published by them at some point. My copy has a readme with the Activision Value address, has a link to activisionvalue.com in the installer, it installs to the Activision Value folder, and lists Activision Value in the manual (though the cover still had Activision o2). Also the executable seems to be patched, as any hex editing mods I've tried do not work on my copy. It works on XP out of the box too, unlike the original release. Googling around, I can't find any info about the release either. I found a single review referencing Activision Value publishing it (on a site called Christian Answers. huh.) which also referred to their review of the GBA version. Is it possible that it was a geographically limited release? It wasn't too far away from their office where I got the copy.

I almost knew that this Game should be better ^^ but I also see that you don't ran out of Games to review ^^

Completely random idea, but do you think the market success of the first Board and Blades lead to the greenlighting of Tony Hawks Pro Skater? The suits at Activision might have seen that there was demand in the market for alt/x-sport titles as even crap would sell.

Think you uploaded clips of Tony Hawks 5 by mistake.

4:30 WTF was that fail-ending?

I feel sick from just watching this gameplay, and what on earth is with that lag when it comes to landing a trick? Maybe that is where the game decides if you land on your board or are thrown to the ground.

From where is that "practice mode" gag?

What the hell is the camera doing?

The Game's Case cover and "Press "START" Screen" looks AWFUL familiar..... Tony Hawk Pro Skater, anyone? They reused the "theme" on it. Or am I crazy?

When they jump off ramps, the camera twitches really bad. It makes me nauseous.

I see so many shovelware getting new entries while good games are left without a deserving new entry.

Aright! Another LGR video! :DDDD

This makes the pair with Big Rigs.

No PRACTICE MODE?!!

I'm surprised that they didn't just copy the engine of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater and tweak it up a bit. I'm also surprised that Boards and Blades sold half a million copies. Some of the best games don't even sell close to that.

if i ever had played this game, i would have instantaneously quit gaming, skating and done who knows what with my life.
