This would be an amazing game for Steam Deck, assuming it runs well. I'm in if they hit the mark.

[–] maxprime@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It’s not the most demanding game so I imagine it would do pretty well.

[–] Cornpop@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Dude it will be like 1000 fps on a steam deck

[–] kadu@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It runs on a Switch, so it's going to be significantly better on the Deck.

[–] Rayspekt@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

If it runs on switch, then it should on my smart fridge as well

[–] woelkchen@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

This would be an amazing game for Steam Deck

Only if your Deck is always online because that's the DRM scheme.

[–] echoplex21@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I know, I was playing this through console streaming from my Ally and really wished it was available natively. Great grab and go game for a couple minutes.

[–] Ninjapenguinart@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Came to say exactly this! I'm excited and will likely pick it up when it's in the discount bin.

Oh they better have the same soundtrack.

DO YOU HAVE THE TIME

[–] forkbomb@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This wasn’t on steam already? That’s the most amazing part of this to me.

[–] Bearigator@ttrpg.network 12 points 2 years ago

It was Epic exclusive on PC I believe

[–] Nutteman@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Wish they hadn't dissolved the studio so they could do 3+4 :(

[–] MeatsOfRage@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Right?! I'm pretty mixed on 4 but I'd argue 3 was every bit as good or better than the first two. The revert was an absolutely critical mechanic and there were some really fun levels like the neighborhood and the factory.

[–] bl4ckblooc@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

The hidden characters in 3+4 made the game so much better

[–] MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

As the series goes on I prefer them more and more till you get to Underground, Im not the biggest fan of Underground 2 but I like American Wasteland just as much as Underground 1. After that I fell off due to preferring Skate.

4 is my favourite of the pro skaters, if you don't count the new 1+2.

[–] echoplex21@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I actually really enjoyed UG2 but I’m not sure how they’ll get the rights to remake it especially with all the Viva La Bam characters.

[–] CatZoomies@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Finally! I’ve been waiting for this for so long with no end in sight! I had no hope due to the Epic exclusivity and the fact that they announced that these remakes didn’t do so well on Epic, so future remakes were never green lit.

I don’t expect this to sell massively on Steam, but I’d love if it did just so we can get the next games.

This won’t be a day one buy for me (no preorders!), but I’ll definitely be picking this up for the nostalgia!

[–] RetroEvolute@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I'm right there with you. Maybe us THPS fans all just have a "fuck the man" mentality and refused to buy from Epic. Then again, this game never got cracked, either...

[–] brihuang95@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 years ago

Oh shit I completely forgot that these remakes came out. Definitely gonna cop, and then hunker down and wait for skate 4

[–] newthrowaway20@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Bout fuckin time. Only took what, 3 years??

[–] Sir_Premiumhengst@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

IT WAS OCTOBER THIRD!

[–] Psythik@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

Good. Can't wait to destroy noobs in multiplayer a second time around (before they practice and get better than me like what happened the first time the game was released.)

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

What is the difference between this and Tony Hawk HD (which is already on Steam)?

[–] MeatsOfRage@lemmy.world 19 points 2 years ago

HD fuckin blows. It's a cheap remake that screwed up the physics and was mostly lifeless. It was made by the studio that made all the terrible THPS games in the late 2000s through mid 2010s. It's got a handful of levels from the first two games. It looks and feels like a mobile port.

Tony Hawk's 1 + 2 is a love letter to the original 2 games. Loaded with content and they nailed the feel. Your muscle memory of the originals carries over perfectly. It's got all the levels plus a few more. They also added in the revert from THPS3 which is sorely missing when you go back and actually play the originals.

When will it release on GOG?

[–] woelkchen@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

When will it release on GOG?

Never. It has always online DRM.
