I never played any of them past the second one for dreamcast. Is it still good after that? Soundtracks still as cool?

They noticed it was dead 7 years too late.
 
Now for Sonic...

Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 for GameCube was ok. But I really prefer THPS2 for PSX.

the last TH I took seriously was underground..

1 and 2 were by far the best.. After that the idea just got stale.

THPS3 is awesome. The Xbox version of the first two games (THPS2X) is pretty good too.

3 was actually pretty damn good, as well.  It's after that where things got really stale.
Underground was notable for having a story and all that, but the fun died with that really quickly.

Why does it even need a story anyway? I think it just needs "One day Tony and his friends decided to skate in places some of which aren't very convenient but still fun to do."

And you're right.  The story didn't help the games out very much.
Also most of them were bad stories.

It's time to put Tony Hawk out to pasture. Neversoft's abandoning of the franchise would suggest that someone within their organisation has an ounce of intelligence.

He still skates but for fun, not competitively. He's middle aged now, he could hurt himself pretty bad.

Which one had the school level with the "Leap of Faith" jump down the stairs. I played that one endlessly. Also, the one with the cruise ship.

One of my favorite things about this game is the wacky characters you could play as.

Eddie from Iron Maiden. Cant get much better than that.

The school was in 2. The ship was in 3.

This is ironic, because skating was seemingly made optional to gameplay past THPS 3.

Finally, shit got boring right after THPS4.

Was there any point to the Helicopter Drop level in THPS2? I never figured out what to do on it.
