A screenshot of Los Angeles in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3.
Los Angeles is a game level in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3. The level re-appears in Tony Hawk's Underground 2 as a classic mode level, and in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD as downloadable content.
It is a city district of Los Angeles, hence the name.
Origin
The level environment is mostly inspired by financial district of Los Angeles. For example the skatepark area in the center of the level is mainly Pershing Square with Biltmore Hotel next to it, at the beginning of the level there are The U.S Bank Tower and Central Library. On the right there is City National Plaza, which appears to be moved to the Alley of Fame. ACRO Rails can be found right behind it. There is Hollywood sign as well on the hill outside the level. The Havgas car wash is based on Downtown Car Wash.
Trivia
- Player can start the earthquake by grinding 4 rails. It will destroy the bridge.
- It is possible to reach the bridge without starting the earthquake.
- There are two guys that argue in single player mode. They is a bunch for phrases recorded including "THPS1. THPS2. THPS! THPS2!!!" or "Downhill levels. Open environments. Downhill levels! Open environments!!!".
- A Havgas carwash is present in the level.
- When skater is approaching the Buster's Cherry movie theater, a stereotypical 80s porn music is being played. The movies showing include "Rear Admiral" and "Come Hither".
- City National Plaza fountain initially was planned to include the Double Ascension statue, but it was removed later.
