 Tony Hawk's American Wasteland is the loose end of a trilogy with Underground 1 & 2, utilizing a similar free-roam control scheme but expanded even further and now set in the open world sandbox of Los Angeles. Where the two THUG games sat on opposite ends of the story-to-anarchy spectrum, THAW finds a nice middle-ground: your player character travels to LA to escape their crappy home and embrace the skater life, falls in with a group of skate punks, and joins them on a journey to make their secret skate park the best in LA... by wrecking and stealing other parts of LA. While the game is baby's-first-Tony Hawk easy, the controls are some of the nicest in the franchise. Too bad everyone including your character is an aggressive douchebag. The LP JigglyJacob takes lead for the Story Mode, handling the game's Xbox 360 version. I (ThornBrain) join him on co-commentary and will cover the Classic Mode on the PC version at the end of the LP. The Music To avoid issues with copyright bots and the like, the game's usual soundtrack has been muted and replaced with Tony Hawk-appropriate music from myself and several musician friends. Ignore that I'm not from LA and they're not even from California. Music by: ThornBrain | Big Time Kill | smell | Fatigue | Gramlins | Sawtooth What About THUG2? Both Jacob and I had massive recording issues with it, so we're skipping it for now. We'll try again after THAW. ----------------------

I can't say I believe you can destroy so much of LA and not immediately get the cops on you. Now, Oakland...

Final part of the story mode, which is really more of a victory lap on the corpse of a casino. Next week, the final part of the whole LP: Classic Mode!
