Definitely going to stay up there as one of the rarest and longest platinums I've gotten in awhile.

Bros it's the remake of two of the best games ever made in a single package! If they somehow managed to fit Tony Hawk 3 in there (or if they add it down the line as DLC) it might be one the single best video game packages ever made!

This one you gotta 100% complete Tony Hawk 1 and 2 (objectives and collectibles and stat points), but that's really only scratching the surface. There's 700+ skating challenges to complete and even if you complete all of them you'll only reach somewhere between level 70-80 on your skater profile and have to grind out the rest of the exp just playing the game doing runs or playing online. You get very little exp for these too so it'll end up taking 200-300 hours really to reach level 100 overall.

Some of the notable skater challenges which also lead to trophies include

  • Performing a trick on every gap on every stage
  • Performing all the hard "Get-There's" where you have to to chain several gaps in a stage all together into a single combo.
  • Getting platinum scores on a certain amount of stages (most of them in the 600K-1.5M range)
  • Fully completing all challenges for at least 3 pro skaters as well as your created skater
  • Gold medals on all skate parks


and so on, stuff like that. Luckily the game is so fun that it never really felt like much of a grind. Tony Hawk games are the type of games you're guaranteed to get better the more your practice so you just find yourself getting higher and higher scores the more you play.

There's really no way around the grind to level 100 though when you're only getting anywhere between 25-150 exp per run (even if you stick around and get a ridiculous amount of points it gets capped at like 225 exp per run anyway) and by the end it takes like 25K exp to level up it's just going to take a lot of time regardless.

Here are some Get-There's I found particularly tough and spend several hours on all of these. Especially that Roswell one augh.
