The game clearly isn't finished and, even it it was, the lack of ambition – and budget – is painfully obvious at every turn. A sad, pathetic end to a classic games franchise.

Some of the stage designs aren't too boring and if you're lucky enough for the game to work that long; you can still chain moves together in the old style

Even if the game worked properly, it's still a pale imitation of the original, with bland level and mission design; The bugs and glitches are some of the worst we've ever seen; It costs £50

looks, runs, and plays like a pre-alpha build of a game that might have been ready to release sometime in the spring or summer of 2016. Its framerate is choppier than most extreme sports titles on the PlayStation 2.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5's rare moments of nostalgic joy are drowned out by its abundance of poorly thought out levels, control problems, bugs, and its glaring lack of attitude. It boggles the mind that a $60 game in 2015 can be riddled with so many technical issues.

Concept: Revive the series' old school gameplay with new maps, but not a lot of compelling new ideas Graphics: I like the vibrant look, but framerate problems make it less than smooth Sound: The game's 30+ tracks are true to the series' punk and hip-hop roots.

We had been hoping for the best, our fingers crossed until the very last moment. Our nostalgic memories of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 and 2 are still wonderfully warm and cozy. We recall pulling off advanced tricks, grinding to our favourite songs, cruising great levels looking for new spots to ride.

Why, when Activision has seemingly taken so much care and attention with its elegant revival of Guitar Hero? Why, when Activision has supported Bungie's triumphant overhaul of Destiny?

Better luck next time, Tony.

How Tony Hawk has fallen from grace. This game looks and feels like a re-skinned Goat Simulator and is possibly the worst game I'v seen since superman 64. Avoid.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 exists to exploit any nostalgia you might have for the earlier games, offering an insulting dearth of worthwhile content in exchange for your money.

Decent selection of skaters

Awful online implementation; Lifeless levels; Mediocre soundtrack; No local multiplayer
