Story:You are a new skater in the city of L.A.. The main drive of the game is that your hanging around with a skating group and its leader, who also happens to be a skating legend, at their skate park in Beverly Hills called Skate Ranch. Throughout the game you must help your friends by getting skate pieces for Skate Ranch. The game marks the third reinvention of the series, with Pro Skater being the first, and Underground being the second. It comes with brand new features like the ability to change your personal appearance in game, as well as the ability to get off of the skateboard and use a BMX. For the first time all of levels are strung together into one big environment, which gets rid of loading times and menu selection. Old features were also kept like Create-a-park, which dates back to the Pro Skater series. Missions are still acquired by going up to random people or friends and accepting the mission they want you to run. The game also includes a multiplayer mode and co-op for up to 2 players for added replay value.Show more

This game became unforgettable because it was one of the first skateboarding games I ever played. I was amazed by its beauty—it was incredible, and I found it to be one of the most beautiful games I had ever seen as a child. I was also fascinated by the tricks in the game and the fact that it could be played in two-player mode. I played this game for the first time with my cousins on the PS2. I really liked the map and the skate tricks, but since I was a kid and lived in Brazil, I didn't know English. That meant I couldn't complete the missions, so I couldn't unlock other maps or locations. I want to see this childhood game on GOG because I love the idea of DRM-free games. That way, I could buy it and keep it forever if I wanted to. I will always support this kind of initiative.

One of the best and funniest skateboarding games. Played this on OG Xbox back in the day with the custom soundtrack feature. Been wanting this remastered or re-released for years and there was a PC port so hopefully GOG can get it on there.
I played this game for ages whhen i was a kid and recently learning about a project called rethawed makes me want to play it again but you you need to have american wastelannd and you can't purchase a digital copy of american wasteland anywhere having a place to play these older tony hawk titles would be great

The game is split into Missions, which are individually scored according to various factors, such as Orbs gathered and damage taken. Additionally, Devil May Cry did away with the pre-rendered backgrounds of prior Resident Evil games in order to allow for a dynamic camera system.

Devil May Cry 4: Collector's Edition
Devil May Cry 4: Collector's EditionThe player plays as Nero throughout most of the game. He is equipped with the Red Queen sword, Blue Rose revolver, and the powers of his Devil Bringer. The Red Queen features an Exceed Gauge that can be charged up, allowing for subsequent attacks that are more powerful than regular slashes, until the gauge empties. Nero also has the powers of his Devil Bringer, and can use it to pull himself towards enemies or vice versa. The Devil Bringer may also be used for context-sensitive throw attacks, leading to high damage and various effects depending on the enemy. Nero's Devil Bringer also gains new abilities during the course of the game, such as being able to detect secret missions or caches of Red Orbs. Nero eventually gains the ability to use Devil Trigger after getting the katana known as Yamato, which increases his Devil Bringer's power, thus changing his Devil Bringer attacks into more powerful versions with different animations
