I have decided to do another match-up today due to the fact that a viewer of mine(ihateelvis) has made a very good point in which I have decided to change and that is instead of sound I'm going to add in originality, and the first two games two be competing with this new category is God of War for the PS2 and it will be tangling with Tony Hawks Pro Skater 3.
VS.
Graphics
Ok lets start off by saying that these are two games that were both created on the same platforms and the difference in the graphics are so different, even if Pro Skater was made 4 years before GOW, there's no way that even if it was made by the same team as GOW it would even look half as good. Advantage GOW
Gameplay
This is a very interesting choice because GOW has amazing gameplay and is very easy to pick up and play as the learning the game takes 30min to an 1hr but with the puzzles and A.I it can be very difficult on the harder modes but can be also easy if you start to button mash, whereas in Pro Skater the gameplay is at times extremly difficult and not just anyone can pick it up and play it as it takes a good while to learn it. This is a draw.
Value
In this category Pro Skater is a game that takes its value to a whole nether level due to the fact that its the first skateboarding game thats any good, and GOW value has gone down alot due to the fact of it's sequel GOW2, but even with Pro Skater having sequals it still remains as the best skateboarding game. Advantage Pro Skater.
Storyline
I know that this is an unfair category to Pro Skater but it's part of the tournamet and there's no arguement because GOW has what could be one of the most compelling storylines in the tourny. Advantage GOW.
Originality
There is also no question for this category neither because Pro Skater isn't only a sports game but it also had 2 more skateboarding games before it and had no originality, whereas in GOW the originality of this game is absolutly incredable that anyone would ever think of such a game with so much raw talent.Advantage GOW
So there you have GOW wins in a romp 4-0-1 over Pro Skater and sents it home packing, and with this win moves onto the next round as the fourth game to due so.
