Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4: Featuring Returning Skaters

Alright, so let’s dive in. Imagine this: skaters who aren’t just rolling on wheels but reshaping the whole skateboarding universe. Yeah, from gold medal champs to those who invented tricks we’re still trying to nail today. These legends? They mixed guts, creativity, and iron-like will to basically smash whatever got in their way.

And, oh man, Elissa Steamer. Remember her? First female skater you could play in the OG Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater. She said, “Being in the original games was epic!” I mean, her words, not mine. It literally shook her world. She was buzzing then and still buzzing now. Crazy, right?

Now, flip over to Rodney Mullen—yes, the guy we all secretly worship because, hello, he invented the kickflip. When Tony asked him to join, it was a huge deal, but he had zero clue about the impact it would have. Picture this: him signing stuff while sitting on a tour van’s roof ’cause fans were rocking the van like a boat in a storm. Insane! The game really went wild.

And let’s not forget how the game brought everyone in. Suddenly, there were tricksters everywhere, people accepting skating in ways that were totally unheard of before. Rodney goes on about how parents used to freak out when their kids took up skating. I guess they imagined broken bones, not realizing it was just another way for some of us to belong. It’s got this culture, right? Like, not just tricks but music, art, and all the vibes in between. Yeah, Tony nailed it with that game.

Oh, speaking of which, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 is coming out this July. Kinda wild to think we’ll have all those familiar faces back on the screen. It’s like a time machine hitting the pavement all over again.

Cue the drum roll, ’cause here come the OGs…

Who do we even start with? Of course, Tony Hawk. Need I say more?
