This is some anti-LucasArts bullshit right here.The games have to have been released on 1 October 1993 onwards. You can use a later PAL release date to justify inclusion but not a remaster/remake/retro re-release.
There's a bit in the mag explaining that a number of series got screwed by split voting, THPS among them. Gran Turismo and PES were a couple of others.LivDiv wrote:Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 (I would also accept 2) I thought this was a criminal omission. Firstly because it's just a really good franchise but also for the cultural impact the series had. So much of the popularity of the fashion and music of that era was linked to or inspired by THPS. There aren't many games that transcend the gaming market like THPS did.
