Tony Hawk's Underground Cheats

Tony Hawk's Underground Online Strategy Guide

Seems like everyone these days is taking things underground. It worked for trains and music, so why not video games? The latest underground adopter is none other than Tony Hawk, the most influential skater to ever shred the face of the Earth. The game is Tony Hawk's Underground, or THUG, for those too cool for words.

For the first time in the Hawk series, the game follows a definite story line complete with cut scenes, plot twists and international intrigue. Or maybe just international incidents. As a young skater trying to carve a line through a cold, impersonal world, you'll have to rise out of obscurity and prove to everyone that you have the chutzpah to be the next Steve Caballero.

As with every hero's path, yours is fraught with difficulty and danger, and more than a few skinned knees. But hold on, Monica... don't fret. You've got IGN Guides on your side. While we couldn't land a 360 backside anything in real life, in the make-believe digital world of THUG, we are at least minor gods. Gods like Dionysus. Or maybe Pan. Or maybe Procrustes.

Forget that. Stupid reference. What we're driving at is this. IGN's online guide is all you'll need to rip the lid of the THUG. Inside you'll find a complete skatethrough, information on hidden areas, descriptions of all gaps, secrets, creation information, and lots more.

Get the item to unlock the School 2 level.

Hint: Secret Tape Locations

New Jersey - Go to the left side of the bridge; you will see a sidewalk next to the river. Jump down onto it and walk under the bridge.

Manhattan - Go to the Metro Center (the building that is very shiny and made of glass) the tape should be on the sign that says "Welcome".

Tampa - Find the huge building made of windows with two ramps in front of it. Air off one of the ramps (as if you were going to gap between them) and head high between the middle of the ramps.

Hawaii - Climb on top of the Big Surf Hotel and find the side facing the pink hotel. Then go into the corner on the roof next to the quarter pipe and look for a wire. Grind down the wire to the tape.

Vancouver - Find the big bubble thing with flags around it above the hockey rink, then find the quarter pipe next to it. Go out into the street and spine transfer the quarter pipe for speed and then air up to get the tape.

Slam City Jam - Locate the scoreboard in the middle of the stage and the circular platform that goes around it. Grind on the platform and into the bottom of the scoreboard.

Hotter Than Hell - Get onto the inner of two platforms that are high up in the air and head around the platform until there is a part where it starts to rise. Go up that part of the platform and get air to get the tape.

Hint: Easy Single Trick Combos

While playing any difficulty on story mode, you'll notice that it may ask you do a move 5 times in one combo or something as such. Like 'Lipslide 5 times in one combo' raise a stat up a bar for a created character. Now if you're having trouble doing this there's a solution.

When you're ready to earn that point, enter the create-a-trick mode in the middle of the game. (Don't exit Story mode to the Create Trick mode!) Create a basic trick (like a simple flip or grab). Now name your newly created move to the name of the trick that you are trying to mimic. You don't have to map the move to your character permanently, instead enter the preview trick and land the new move 5 times or however times you need.

Example of this: enter create a trick, insert a kickflip, rename the move, enter preview move, and now land the trick as many times as needed in one combo. When you're finished, simply quit edit a trick and you should that after you succesfully landed the trick, you're stats should increase.

Hint: Infinite Trick Bug on Hangar

On the Hangar level, go to the half pipe on the other side of the wooden one in the middle. The pipe is in a seperate room. Go to the far left corner and skate up and down, olling to get more air. Eventually, you should go so high that you get stuck, and you can spin infinitely. The only way to get down is to hop off your board, and get back down again.
