I would buy an Xbox Series X if it was backwards compatible with Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2X

I have a hankering to get some old titles right now, stuff I missed on PS3/Xbox 360. But I don't have a 360. Just an One S, so it plays a lot, but not everything, obviously.

I'm kinda curious when they're going to announce what the future holds for that, because it'll change what platforms I buy retro games for.

I'm hoping they give some recent punk bands that came up post-THPS some love instead of relying on old Warped Tour-era groups. Bad Cop Bad Cop, Masked Intruder, The Interrupters, Microwave, Sincere Engineer and many others would be great fits.

BCBC, MI, Interupters, PUP, Pkew Pkew Pkew, Days n Daze, Screamales, Coathangers, Tsunami Bomb, Direct hit, Young Rochelles, Bombpops, No Men... So many good band choices that would be absolutely FANTASTIC for a Tony Hawk game.

If it's a 60 dollar game its DOA. Same for a lot of the old school extreme sports darlings.

We're lowkey in a great era of punk right now and I feel like the genre would be substantially bigger right now if the Tony Hawk games were still popular.

Right? non-stop on Spotify I'm finding new bands that are just absolutely fantastic, and just loving all of this music.

This is the era of bands that grew up with the Tony Hawk soundtracks driving their influences, and damn it's good.

My dream scenario:

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater Maker!

include the old maps/ campaigns, include a level editor and BAM! Trackmania + THPS + Mario Maker = best franchise comeback ever!

yeah and bands like Menzingers, Iron Chic, Lemuria, Soccer Mommy, etc mixed with the wave of great hip hop like Kendrick would genuinely make it my fave out the bunch

Hope this doesn't go back to that 2 minute formula of the old games. Tony Hawk games peaked with 4 and THUG, so I hope it'll be like that.
