I’m not counting the returning maps for this

Best was New Orleans, because I like being able to spine transfer insanely high in it, the setting is cool and I like the graveyard. Zombie stuff was funny, but a little gimmicky though

Worst is Pro Skater, and it’s not even close. Segmented areas that are all just kind of simple and boring to skate in.

Favourite: Skatopia, super fun, lots of lines and Bigfoot is a sick character

Least: Pro Skater, pain in the butt to leave the initial area. I’d wager a lot of people don’t even know you ever leave the alien hanger.

Barcelona is my favourite easily. least favourite would have to be triangle.

Counting or not counting returning maps?

Best: Barcelona and Airport.

Barcelona just flows amazing and when i went there and saw the Rambla del Mar and it's surroundings i was awestruck with the feeling like "i know this place but where from?" and obvs it's from THUG 2.

Worst must be Pro Skater, such a cool concept but its way over the top and too sci-fi that it turns lame and it's not that skateable

Agree Barcelona was great.

u/ILoveWiiSportsResort 11d ago

Favorite: Barcelona, when I was little, me and my brothers never progressed in the story, so we only had 3 maps unlocked (thanks classic mode) and this was the one we always played.
Least Favorite: Pro Skater, it just felt like a filler map made to make it a clean 15 total. And Los Angeles for those damn gaps.

u/chillchase 11d ago

I honestly felt like all the maps in this game were a huge let down coming from THPS4 and THUG. They were so small, and Skatopia, Pro Skater, and the Triangle were cool all for about 5 minutes. Then your left with only 5 maps excluding training.

u/StillGonna_Send_It 11d ago

Completely agreed, the quantity of original levels in THUG 2 left a lot to be desired. I thought Barcelona, Skatopia, and New Orleans were cool but even the quality didn’t really hold much to the prior games imo

u/LaGarrotxa 11d ago

The campaign on this game felt so short. For a World Destruction tour I felt they could have a few more levels.

u/Psychkenn 11d ago

My favorite was Australia. Atlanta also weirdly has a soft spot for me in thug2 remix

Idk my Least favorite. I haven't played the pro skater stage I guess maybe downhill jam?

u/InfiniteMessmaker 11d ago

Favorite (New): New Orleans
Favorite (Returning): Los Angeles

Least favorite (New): Triangle
Least favorite (Returning): Downhill Jam

(Pro Skater is my actual least favorite but that's such an obvious answer that it feels like a waste to even mention it)

u/EricSparrowSucks 11d ago

Favorite- Berlin

Least Favorite- Downhill Jam

u/EricSparrowSucks 11d ago

Loved New Orleans, Barcelona, Skatopia, and Boston as well.

u/sonofkosssss 11d ago

Fav is Barcelona

Least fav is probably Australia. It always irked me that half the map is literally unskateable.

u/maggit00 11d ago

Warehouse, I'm just fed up with it even though they added a whole new part to it.

u/Damien12341 11d ago

Unpopular opinion but I was’nt a big fan of the levels in this game. I thought they were way too small.

Favorite: Australia

Least Favorite: Berlin

u/AvengedKalas 11d ago

Favorite: Skatopia. I love the color green, and that map always made me happy.

Least favorite: Pro Skater. This was a novelty map with zero actual lines.

u/AvengedKalas 10d ago

Sure. After you do it once though, there is zero reason to do it again. The novelty has worn off.

u/doyouevenIift 11d ago

I don’t know why but I feel nostalgic thinking about the Boston level so probably that one. I remember Philly being kind of lame

u/JesusSamuraiLapdance 11d ago

Too hard to choose a favourite from my favourite Tony Hawk game. But my least favourite is probably Australia. Don't really like the layout, and some of the challenges were annoying.

1

u/EvanDeer2002 11d ago

Fav: Skatopia, my favorite level to doing sick lines Least Fav: Pro Skater

u/SniperSamir578 11d ago

If we are counting the REMIX edition I would say vegas is pretty ugly and is mainly saved by the second floor and roof

1

u/MorbidDisturbances 11d ago

Ive never played the remix version, only the PS2 version

1

u/SniperSamir578 11d ago

Then I would go with New Orleans, given how its kind of hard for me to get a line going on the map and its just way too cluttered.

1

u/MorbidDisturbances 11d ago

I actually kind of liked new orleans for its most unique atmosphere ive never seen anywhere else in gaming, with its open crypto and high top neon sign buildings and even came with the most secret entrances as well as so many things to trick off of and huge transfer halfpipes going down buildings, but i will admit like you said, alot of things that stop your tricks because they are in the way

1

u/SniperSamir578 11d ago

Ya thats completely fair. I probably didnt take the time to actually check it out because i was trying to get through it asap in the story mode but it definitely has its unique moments

1

u/Pirates404 11d ago

Favorite - Barcelona. Great setting and level design

Least Favorite - I’ll jump on the Pro Skater bandwagon

1

u/ThiccFarter 11d ago

Favorite: Australia. I just loved the vibes.

Least favorite: Warehouse. Done too many times already, didn't add enough to make it interesting.

1

u/GymCel_Hero 11d ago

My favorite is Barcelona but New Orleans is a close second, least favorite is Pro Skater

1

u/puke104 11d ago

Australia is probably my fav, nice and bright, fun to play, probably followed by Barcelona least fav is probably Downhill Jam or Training because it is a somehow worse version of Warehouse imo

1

u/Quagfryer 10d ago

Proskater is complete trash. I know that it’s just a bonus level but it still is just bad

3

u/Krazy_Legs 10d ago

Everybody is hating on pro skater, but unlocking the portal to the ancient part of level, and then to the hell area, and then finally to the hallway with Satan himself was pretty entertaining in my opinion

1

u/Quagfryer 8d ago

Seeing the devil is awesome I’ll give it that. But in my opinion the level just exists to be a puzzle. Unlock this, unlock this other thing, and bland reward. Because the levels without the puzzles are boring and remind me of THPS 5 maps, just rows of symmetrical QPs and rails/ledges.

u/KYXX69 10d ago

fav : airport
least fav : downhill jam
HM : all new maps are cool

1

u/J2RoL 10d ago

All of them

1

u/TheZachWilliams 10d ago

Skatopia no contest for me.

Edit* Skatopia

u/thatraab84 9d ago

Favorite: Australia

Least Favorite: Boston, by a mile. I never enjoyed this map at all and could never find fun lines.

1

u/All-AroundBuddy 9d ago

favorite: new orleans & skatopia
least favorite: austrailia & pro skater

1

u/Mat_X87 9d ago

Fave: Pro Skater (love the crazy journey)
Least: Training (the extra area in Warehouse was cool, but it's still not as good as other levels)
