About Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 is a landmark entry in the legendary skateboarding series, released in 2002. It kept the series' tight, combo-friendly skateboarding gameplay and expanded it with a more open structure: instead of a timer-driven goal list, each level lets you explore freely and take on challenges at your own pace. You can play as Tony Hawk and a roster of real pro skaters, or create your own, and the game features real skate spots recreated as levels. The core loop is timeless — chain tricks, manuals, and grinds into massive combos while earning points and unlocking new challenges, boards, and videos. Its soundtrack, physics, and level design are considered some of the best in the series, and it remains a favorite among skaters and gamers alike. The remastered versions of later entries brought the classic formula to modern platforms.
