The Internet Reacts To Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 Remaster

Today, everyone in the entire world has “Superman” by Goldfinger stuck in their head—a marked increase from the usual 70 percent on any given day. Why? Because Tony Hawk, famous for being unrecognizable while in airport security lines (and also skating), is back.

Publisher Activision, developer Vicarious Visions, and the beloved board lord himself announced Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2, a remaster of the first two games in the nostalgia-soaked series. The game will include maps and skaters from the original games, as well as songs from the original soundtrack. There will also be “new features” and, of course, thoroughly spruced-up graphics. The internet, which has spent all its life preparing for this exact day, freaked out.

I'm loving how the Crash Remastered team is doing a Tony Hawk HD remake

Although I hope they have an option for the blue sky Venice beach. The new game at least looks much better than the Surface of Mars style from the previous HD remake pic.twitter.com/oaPdxtXfFf

true story, John Feldmann from Goldfinger once told me having Superman on THPS was the best thing that ever happened to his band

Fired up for Tony Hawk's Pro Skater collection, but what will it take @EA to lean into a new #Skate4? EA, I'll buy the title from you all and try to get it done if you all are just going to sit on it!
