Review for those who know the THPS series. List of new features and differences.
Well the overall of the games is a little different from the 2nd and 3rd part of the series. The biggest difference is that on a track you don't have a time limitation of 2 min to attain the listed goals but you have at the standard level (first level) 16 goals to achieve (by collecting of the pro scores during the game you get into the pro level then you got all together with the 16 goals 21) by each level (or place). By reaching those goals you have to go to each person on the field with a big arrow over the head and get a briefing.
There are new goals like collect the COMBO letters in one combo and event like get best combo on different places and so on... there are really a lot of them. Some of them are really innovative so that the whole thing isn't becoming boring during the play of the game.
The new thing is also that when you pimp up one of the skater with stats then you don't need to do this with each player, like before in the old series, but those stat points are all the same for every skater.
Another new good thing is that you have a Pro Challenge for each skater. When you achieve it you get a video of the skater like in the previous series when you have won all the three golden medals.
For those who didn't played the 2nd THPS would be new the credit system, which wasn't in the THPS 3. Well it's all the same like in the 2nd. For each goal you get money and then you can buy special clothes (this is a new feature), skate decks etc. And the almost new thing for buy are some videos, level and some other stuff.
So what should we say. Is this new part of THPS worth of play if you well know the old ones? Hmm well Yes for those who think that all the new things are enough for them and No for those who are sick of trying over100 times to achieve a goal because of their difficulty.
Although the game is a bit too hard, for my opinion it's the best in the series because it's longer form the previous versions, the whole playing system is much better and the physical model is a bit more normal.
