It's insane that this is Tony Hawktober's 3rd year! I still remember the first. It's been a ride.

[@SquareEyedJak]

I know, it's crazy how quickly this has come up. Just in time for the 20th anniversary of the series!

[@alex_-yz9to]

Watchout for these tony hawk videos, Accidents can ha- *Game freezes*

[@ErdrickHero]

A Tony Hawk Ride.

[@adultmoshifan87]

I remember my 13th birthday: I wanted Tony Hawk’s 2 for PlayStation, but when mom got to the store, they had run out! As a result, she got me the Game Boy Color version instead, and I was still a happy person!

[@botchedspiny477]

Tony Hawktober is the best thing to come out of the pro skater series since Proving Grounds, period.👍

10 EPISODES?! Holy shit, now THAT is a damn solid reason to buy a crapton of cold ones for the family "watch along" meet up. Cheers man, it's already a tradition in our household, since the last two years)

For real? You sit with the family and watch Hawktober?

Tony hawk 1 GBC was literally designed for 7 year olds like me at the time lol

[@jonbourgoin182]

1:58 that menu theme from THPS1 is an instant nostalgia rush.

[@EverDownward]

If the finale is Tony Hawk himself showing up, I will legitimately fly to Australia to kiss your feet.

Now that'd be dope!

[@fizzpeakgamer1318]

It was even bigger than that!

[@alaeriia01]

Guess what?

[@fastbreak333]

It's nice to see the handheld games explored. People don't usually take an in depth look at them and when they do, they're old reviews that get all weird and angry. Ah, the old KZbin days when everybody wanted to be like AVGN.

I absolutely love these intros. They look really good and set the tone for the episode beautifully. This series gives me just another thing to look forward to the following years.

Great video, this series is what got me into your channel in the first place, I watched 2017 Tony hawktober a month before 2018's release, it quickly became a favorite youtube series of mine

Thank you very much! :D

glad your back Jak, hope your doing well! What a great way to start of Hawktober!

Man these games look good for GBC. I remember the colours always being washed out and desaturated, that was when I could actually see what was on screen.

[@GundamrussGaming]

Always look forward to this october series :) fantastic production as always :)

Glad to see the series kicking off again. This will be a wild 2 weeks for us all.

[@reagandow850]

You took the words right out of my mouth when it comes to the sounds on Pro Skater 3 (gbc). It sounds exactly like an Atari game. I was having horrible flashbacks of my youth. 🤘

[@ElliotGindiVO]

I don't care about this series at all, I downright suck at them but this event on your channel is always great. I especially like when you try to skate.

[@androidgear2114]

It's here it's finally fucking here HawkTober has begun celebrate and rejoice. also at 4:07 this guy right here is my favorite KZbinr

[@orussonobrasil]

You rock man! Keep the videos coming!

[@SMWHobz]

I feel like the idea with Pro Skater 3 was that you would listen to your own music while you played. Like you said, half the fun comes from shredding through to the awesome soundtrack, and they knew they couldnt compete with the gameboy's soundchip, so they just left it silent so you could listen to some RATM without having to mute the sound effects

[@Wrathchild1995]

Glad to see Hawktober back, once again 😁 Hell yeah!

[@JomasterTheSecond]

I once saw a video that compiled a bunch of angry people yelling at the Pro Skater games on GBC. One of the quotes that stood out to me was *"WHY IS TONY BLACK?!"*

Welp, I just found out what I'll be watching for the next several hours.... Haha! Thanks man this stuff is awesome!

[@BranSnakes]

These game compilation videos are the best. I have a feeling the final episode will be the 2 hour-long special!

[@SquareEyedJak]

Well I'm glad you like them because there are A LOT this year, just to get through everything. Helps given that there isn't a significant amount to say on each one.

[@user-ot6cp3us1o]

@@SquareEyedJak I'm looking forward to the GBA games. I really liked American Sk8land. It was a pain to play on a mobile emulator but it was still an enjoyable experience.

[@ThunderDragonRandy]

THPS3 on GBC was the first Tony Hawk game I ever owned. It was a frustrating game indeed. I never played the real THPS3 until a year or two ago.

[@user-ws2me9xm8t]

The gameplay is so realistic that any player can forget where he is, in game or in physical world.

[@MoonSpiritChannel]

It's Hawktober, and I'm ready to rock with my Hawktober shirt, on October!

[@shawnberry8052]

Ah Hawktober, there is still something to look forward to, Thanks Jak, we appreciate mate

[@SquareEyedJak]

Glad it's appreciated, cheers dude! :)

[@DomtheDemonSlayer]

I gotta say, these handheld variants always come with some surprises.

[@-AK-]

Oh man, I clicked on this as soon as I seen it. The GBA ones are a bit more similar to the console experience, looking forward to seeing what you've got to say about those. Though, I'm most excited for the psp episode.

[@2004flippy]

AHHctober is finally here I'm crying with happiness

[@FireStormDel]

I'm wondering, since after this year, you'll have covered pretty much every game in the Tony Hawk series, what would you do for Year 4? My only guesses are either rip-off titles like Grind Session and Simpsons Skateboarding, or sports titles made by the same people who made the Tony Hawk games like Mat Hoffman's BMX.

[@fathersunglasses6085]

Disney Extreme Skate Adventure too!

[@rohry4905]

Awesome vid jak! Hope you're doing well :^)

[@SquareEyedJak]

Cheers mate! Doing ok, but still a lot of Hawktober work to finish before week 2.

[@GeekGamerGui]

You could check Trick Boarder (snowboard game) on GBC. It's very similar to the first Tony Hawk game you've reviewed here.

I can't wait untill Hawktober 4 when you talk about Tony Hawk wannabe's. Wakeboarding Unleashed: Featuring Shaun Murray will finally get it's time to shine.

[@SquareEyedJak]

I can't wait either to be honest, I'm keen for Hawktober to take a broader turn to include more than just the skateboarding.

[@user-ot6cp3us1o]

@@SquareEyedJak One game worth checking out is Geoff Rowley Skate & Slam on JME. A damn great old school mobile game. Notable for the impressive sprite animations and controls.

[@K.J.S.est1994]

You should try and review Disney’s Extreme Skate Adventure which is a spin-off of THPS but it has the Disney licence containing characters and levels based on Disney films such as “Tarzan,” “The Lion King” and “Toy Story” the console versions also use the same engine used in THPS 4 plus for a kids game it also has a Nu Metal soundtrack containing songs including TRUSTCompany’s Downfall.

[@Atri4]

Oh yeah, here we go again!

[@gamerguy425]

I have a few of portables in the series (THPS 1 2 & 3, THUG, THASL) but literally all of them I played for like 15 minutes and never touched again. looks like I wasn't missing out on a ton so far lol

Natsume also made harvest moon freinds of mineral town. That was one of my favorite games as a kid.

[@SquareEyedJak]

I've only played Back to Nature on PS1 which I'm pretty sure they also made, but I fucking love it.

[@SquareEyedJak]

Oh really? Well fuck. Who made them then? It's a series I'm actually really keen to try more of the games for, possibly even for videos so anyone know the good ones worth playing?

[@ps3beatswii]

@@SquareEyedJak Victor Interactive Software made those. I never knew they had a hand in the original Tomb Raider. So there's that.

[@hankhill1964]

@Ayan Mao huh.

@@SquareEyedJak As a matter of fact, friends of mineral town was a remake of back to nature for the gameboy advance.

Dark Souls is the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 GBC of action games.

Well what do you expect, Hawktober is the Dark Souls of channel specials as I've been told in the past. Makes you think.

[@LorraineMcFly]

I'm wanting to get into the Tony Hawk franchise but don't know where to start. What do you think would be the best starting game for a noob like me?

[@fikrinifyful]

Will you review many of J2ME tony hawk games? That thing is my childhood tho

[@SquareEyedJak]

Got to fill 10 days of Hawktober with something.

[@CptnWolfe]

I just bought Pro Skater 2 and 3 for the Gameboy Color on eBay for less than 40 dollars total

[@TheNathanNS]

The animations on THPS3 were really fluid tbh.

[@SquareEyedJak]

YES, I was very surprised by that. Even on the smaller scale next to THPS2, every single trick is so defined and all look awesome.

[@pilot3605]

You know, this looks quite pretty for a gbc game. Compared to something like Rayman 2 on gbc, it looks beautiful even lol

[@StarForceBelmont321]

I got a good question for Tony Hawktober! IRL how do you discover if you are Regular footed Goofy footed or go Mongo? That way when I play Tony Hawk I can play it to my real life board stance

[@Laekith]

Finally

[@bolstaaa]

I owned Pro Skater 3 when I was younger, and thought I was just really shit at it.. Glad to hear that after all these years, it wasn’t 100% down to my incompetence 🤣

[@SquareEyedJak]

Yo it's really tough, I'd say give it a second chance though. The challenge is satisfying to overcome.

[@DmitriyK12]

The Nintendo GB also had ports of 720 Skateboarding and Skate or Destroy...no offense, but you skipped them entirely.

[@heyhocodyo01]

You should review 720 its not tony hawk but its a OG skate game

[@DuelmasterX3]

The only other Tony Hawk games you could possibly review after this are mobile Tony Hawk Games. Which probably exist to be fair. They’re probably not very good although some of them might be decent.

[@jsavageisonly]

I was a bit late to this😅😊

[@e93sports80]

Hey Jak

[@gamerguy425]

I am no expert in hardware, but, the lack of music in THPS3 may be deliberate. the gameboy only has like TWO channels for music/sound or something like that, so they could have opted to have more advanced sound effects instead of music for immersion's sake, seeing as this is much more "hardcore" than the other GBC games. . or maybe the composer slept with the lead programmer's wife and got kicked off the team, who knows?

[@Anon24052]

1:33-1:52 looks a lot like my experience with the PlayStation Vita
