*Seventh game in the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater series. Available for the Playstation 2, the Xbox, the Xbox 360, and the Gamecube. Characterized by the false promise of allowing the player to skate through all of Los Angeles County, it is actually composed of several boring levels.
*a false promise *Tony Hawk's American Wasteland costs $60 on the Xbox 360 even though it is the worst version of the game.
* You said we could go to Disneyland! Was that just a Tony Hawk's American Wasteland? |

The worst Tony Hawk game I have ever played. Trying to make a button mashing game challenging by making you have to combo EVERYTHING is just stupid. Even the distance challenges seem glitchy, where you have to get about 10 feet past the Sick marker for it to actually give you a sick rating. Most of the challenges require tons of trial and error and way more patience than it's worth. Sometimes it's even hard to find a challenge, because they're scattered all over the place, and there's still the annoying gaps to find which have very vague names that could mean anything and you either have to gap everything or just look online for the gap locations Tony Hawk's Proving Ground sucks.

A phrase used when you want to look awesome, but somebody just beat you to it. Refers to the game series "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater," where would-be real life impressive feats can be performed with a few button presses.

Word made up of two words, skate and hitch. It is basically hitching a ride while doing some form of skating. A person grabs onto the back bumper or fender of a vehicle and will be pulled along on an object. The most common objects people do this with are skateboards or a kind of roller skates/inline skates. This has been seen in various movies including Back To The Future and is also used in several video games including Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 and all other Tony Hawk games since 4, Jet Grind Radio and Skitchin' which was a game based in a large way on this particular activity. This is a way for somebody to reach a level of speed that would be near impossible to reach with just a skateboard or roller skates/inline skates alone. It is also very dangerous and can get you seriously injured if something goes wrong. Also the police frown upon this activity as well. "Let's skitch!"
"Did you see Back To The Future where Marty skitched that truck in the beginning?" "It is sweet you can now skitch in the Tony Hawk games." "You'll need to skitch something if you want to get enough speed to clear that huge jump." "That guy was trying to skitch a truck but it stopped suddenly and was pulled under and got ran over." "That fool got busted by the cops for trying to skitch their car." |
