So Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 apparently offers a fresh take on combo-driven skateboarding, set in different environments you might normally struggle to skate in like a bunker, an asteroid belt, the wild west, or simply just some rooftops, which can be attempted with an array of mostly unknown individuals like Aaron "Jaws" Homoki, David Gonzalez, Leticia Bufoni and everyone's favourite, Tony Hawk himself.
Enough spiel, lets break this down, firstly the state of the graphics are horrifying, when you look at ramps in the parks they look like the pixel art I used to do in class at school, the walls and ground are even somehow worse, it just looks like they got a 14 year old who hasn't used Photoshop in their life and got given stock photos and just shown how to render clouds and radial blur, even the in-game advertising looks like a save file that's just been enlarged, so at times they are not just blurry but offensive to your eyes.
