Yeah. I'd say I'm pretty hyped for this game, being an old TH fanatic since the first game. Although I hope it won't lose the tight gameplay by having 1 big ass level. I haven't played THUG 2, but I liked THUG 1 for the crazy levels and the tasks that were set up for you, like the helicopter jump in Hawaii. The story was meh, but since when can you craft an intricate, kick ass story about skateboarding? Not the most intellectual ballpark in the land, but a source of constant, addicting gameplay.
I daresay that I haven't been as addicted to a computer game since Tetris, when I played THPS2(for me the highlight of the series). The school level so totally rocked, I actually bought that game twice, once for the PS and finished it and then again for the DC. And of course finished that as well
