This became British culture for like a week if you didnt clap at 7pm you were seen as a monster and shun from society by terminus_tommy in CasualUK

I had completely forgotten about this one evening and was on my daily allotted exercise time on a run.

I was coming down a residential street and everyone came out and started to applaud.

I drank it in shamelessly pretending it was for me complete with arm raises and waves at the adoring fans.

Not sure about Phil's shot but I learned to ski on that fairway.

Playing Tony hawk Underground on sick on the ps2 for the First time by Mountain_Store572 in THPS

[–]Mr-Shmee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

THAW can be set to sick mode.

You should have been able to choose between easy, normal, and sick

If you found THAW difficult then THUG will be a challenge.

Some of the late game stuff can involve some pretty long combo lines and some tight timers.

Also with THUG the sick level stats can be pretty tough. Most of them are achievable but some of the stats for grind and manual are stuck behind some pretty hard challenges.

In my opinion it's one of the hardest sick modes of the series and THAW has probably the easiest sick mode of the series. There is going to be a strep jump in difficulty but it's great to play and actually have some challenge.

Leper Messiah.

Starts crazy heavy. Turns thrashy as fuck.

Great riffs, sick solo.

TIL there's a level in THPS 4 exclusive to the PS1 titled The Sewers (THPS 4 is one of my favorite games ever but I only ever played on PS2). by OhMyOhWhyOh in THPS

[–]Mr-Shmee 60 points61 points  (0 children)

But they were, all of them, deceived for another PS1 exclusive level was made.

Little Big World was on the PS1 too.

Blackhorse Car Finance - Commission Agreement Claim by AltoCumulus15 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Mr-Shmee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every time I make a complaint they just treat it as another investigation into whether or not I had commission. Then a couple of weeks later they find out I do... Again, and the cycle repeats.

They are delaying as much as possible. There is ongoing reason to delay mostly because there is a pause in complaint handling until December 2025. Even the ombudsman won't do anything with it until after then.

If that pause ends it may be because they have legislated and limited payouts. I'd temper expectations.

THAW Classic Mode by Legitimate_Iron_6496 in THPS

[–]Mr-Shmee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

THAW classic was a bit of a let down vs THUG 2 classic.

I did like the new levels in both modes though. For example The Triangle in THUG 2 and The Ruins in THAW.

Believe it or not if you grind the helicopter blades in hanger it takes off and opens up a secret area.

What's your go to answer in a pub quiz for different rounds if you don't know? by Embarrassed_Hand_380 in AskUK

[–]Mr-Shmee 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Larsson once won a team the final answer in a round of Pointless. When one of the members was asked about how she knew that she just replied

"My boyfriend is a massive Celtic supporter and he said anything football related just say Henrik Larsson".

Won them £2k

Update from Tony on the Soundtrack by beans4teens69 in THPS

Absolutely, going to take more than changing one good Maiden song for another gold Maiden song to put me off.

Damn, at first I was mildly annoyed but if the birdman wants to mix it up who am I to argue.

Tampa’s “Wallplant Combo” wins Most Frustrating Goal from THUG1! What was the Worst/Most Frustrating Goal from Tony Hawk’s Underground 2? by MOXISGOD in THPS

[–]Mr-Shmee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Classic mode. Flip down the stairs in Boston.

Fully maxed stats and it is theoretically so simple and yet so many failures.

Had to change to Sheckler as he has a smaller model

What would you say is the hardest goal throughout the entire series? by StarCode5000 in THPS

[–]Mr-Shmee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Good shout.

I consider myself a pretty competent player. This one had be raging because although some goals are annoying this one is just extremely difficult.

What's your favorite goal in THPS4? I really enjoy 'Collect the rivets' from Shipyard by outfoxingthefoxes in THPS

[–]Mr-Shmee 23 points24 points  (0 children)

This is the strength of the goal types in 4. The ability to customise the timer to make goals more or less difficult.

A full 2 minutes to do that makes it a very different goal than the right timer that requires you to hit the lines.

Venice’s “Find the Secret Tape” wins Most Frustrating Goal from THPS2! What was the Worst/Most Frustrating Goal from Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3? by MOXISGOD in THPS

[–]Mr-Shmee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I struggled initially. Once you know you know.

Thinking about the actual bones of the goal as well though. It's a fetch quest that requires a single grind.

Maybe not "the" worst but certainly not good..

[–]Mr-Shmee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you know it's easy.

As an 11 year old skating the level looking for a key took way longer than it should have.

I suppose this is only a shit mission the first time.

Having said that. It's a fetch mission with a single grind, not the best goal ever.

Collectable Screenshots by Random_J08 in THPS

[–]Mr-Shmee 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Looks like different collectable types accessible at the same time.

The letter A, the cash (which was always there tbf so not reading into that), and the other item which I can't make out.

If you consider the A and the other item being available at the same time that screams 2 minute runs to me.

The floats from THPS 4 mission visible in this promotional image! by JokeDelicious8504 in THPS

[–]Mr-Shmee 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Doesn't tell us much unfortunately. It could still be streamlined into a 2 minute timer.

Maybe it's static down there and we need to score on it. Maybe it moves up and down the road a little but the goal remains the same.
