Great Skateboarding game with an awsome BMX section.

Tony Hawk"s American Wasteland is one of my favorite skateboarding games, even thought it was released in 2005 it has awesome graphics. Also the customization is the best yet (even though you have to play for all the clothes and gear). although after you complete story mode there is still random guy that will give you money if you do a small challenge for them.

In THAW you can create your on tag and spray paint it all over the city and even put it on your clothes and board.

Also the BMX part of this is awesome there are quite a few tricks to do on it and there is also challenges you can do on it.

Story mode is kind of short but there are 9 different areas and because it is open world you travel between them in a little alley that you can do some tricks in but not a lot, or you can hop on the bus and select which part of Los Angeles you want to go to.

Classic mode has 6 different levels which are really small and you have to complete challenges (all going at the same time) in order to unlock the next level, this is as hard as it sounds.

Overall an awesome skateboarding game with lots of replay value.
