The Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2 had a massive impact on my taste in music.
Need for Speed was that series for me. Pendulum, Justice, The Qemists, Junkie XL, Hyper, Madeon, Feed Me, Nine Inch Nails, Celldweller, The Prodigy, The Chemical Brothers, Noisia, Haezer… Man NFS had some killer soundtracks.
This but WipEout
Riders on the Storm. But afair it was Snoop Dogg who made the Version for NFS.
Vice City for me.
So here I am.
Doing everything I can.
Holding on to what I am,
Pretending I’m a super man!
You are in my brain
What’s so great about Taylor Swift? Everyone talks about how “great” Taylor Swift is. Taylor Swift isn’t so great. She never got her picture on a bubble gum card. Have you ever seen her picture on a bubble gum card? Hmmm? How can you say someone is great who’s never had their picture on a bubble gum card?

if I die before i wake… at least in heaven i can skate…
'Cause right now on Earth I can’t do jack… Without the man up on my back
It has to start somewhere, it has to start sometime
What better place than here, what better time than now?
All hell can’t stop us now!
SKATE 2 had a totally banging soundtrack. No Swift. She has a terrible reach into the skate game history books.
I still play Tony hawk soundtracks on Spotify in my car
Need for speed underground was the first game for me that made my head bop.
Fully, a MASSIVE amount of what I’m into now came from Tony Hawk games and [adult swim] and the trajectory that put me on. [adult swim] was for sure the MTV of my generation.
By the time I was watching MTV, it was still some TRL and music vids, but also a big dose of Room Raiders, etc… And it eventually fell out of fashion. [AS] definitely had their finger on the pulse of what the cool cats were to tho. Such a hip scene. I still vividly recall a bump for Boondocks featuring Flying Lotus’ song Massage Situation that felt mind blowing.
Weird to think where I’d be without either.
This is why I am fucking terrified of Gen Alpha raised on Elsagate-style youtube shorts.
Wonder what the media trajectory of growing up watching your beloved cartoon friends unexpectedly mutilated as their chubby little baby fingers scroll into the weird part of youtube
We are gonna get some uniquely fucked up people in the next two decades.
How about need for speed most wanted 2005
Excellent point.
starts listening the bomb rush cyberfunk ost and wonders what it would be like to switch the soundtrack for both games
If Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2 was so good, why didn’t it feature any Taylor Swift music?
(massive /j I like both)
Same, dude. THPS2 was massively influential for my generation.
Never been a skater myself after having had a neck injury in third grade, when I first tried it. But the music stuck.
If it’s not in Vice City, I don’t want to hear it.
“Hate” is a strong word, but I really, really, really don’t like you.
Hold The Line brother!
