Just letting people know that Tony Hawk Proving ground kinda sucks. I don't think they put any effort into it. Theres no online, no SD card MP3 use. You can't use a classic controller or a Gamecube controller and theres no IR menu support. The game is controlled with the remote and nunchuck which is pretty crappy. Theres not much motion controll but whats there isn't very good. I'm definatly not impressed and will probably have to trade it for the DS version unfortunatly. Just letting people know the games issues just in case anyone is thinking about getting it.

I've never owned a Tony Hawk game and I've been looking forward to this for way too long, so I don't care... I'm getting it.

i can agree with you on that.. I think 3 was the best.. downhill jam actually went back in this direction, I think it was underrated

but i still played the rest , and i'll grab this one to play here and there as an inbetween game :D

thanks for letting me know. I love tony hawk, (I agree that three was the best) but I really liked downhill jam for the ds. I was really thinking about buying it, for the ONLINE! it also sucks that you have to use motion controll. Thanks a lot.

That's dissapointing. :( I was kind of looking forward to it. I haven't played a Tony Hawk game, since the N64.

Are there only two tony hawk games for the wii? I was kinda looking forward to picking up a tony hawk game for wii, but I want to get something that's at least somewhat comparable to THPS 3.
