Tony Hawk’s Underground 2 is guilty of a familiar Game Boy
Advance crime: it’s recycled. It happens to the best of them: Capcom
with its Mega Man Battle Network series, Konami and Yu-Gi-Oh….even
Nintendo’s a culprit when it brings back that Mario Bros. in nearly
every Mario GBA adventure.
THUG2 for the GBA essentially takes what the team had already done in last year’s THUG and basically offered only the most basic of tweaks, such as new skateparks and the couple of new moves introduced in the console versions. It’s still a good, fun challenge on the handheld, but the game itself barely does much to justify its existence over THUG, and in nearly every case it’s just best to track down a copy of last year’s game if you haven’t already done so.
