Changes: NY City

Revision as of 11:29, 26 August 2017

NY City is a level featured in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2. It was never used in following installments, except the Banks part appearing in THUG Manhattan level.

Origin

Based on the Big Apple, this level features a small part of Riverside park, the area reffered to as the Pit, railroad and Brooklyn Banks. The crossing streets in this level are Riverside and 125th, however, they never cross like this in reality.

Level specific

Player has to collect 5 subway token in order to access the railway.
From time to time player may hear a gunshot and a female scream afterwards.
Taxis which are riding across the map allow player to perform Car plant trick. Taxi drivers yell at skater if they hit them.
Brooklyn Banks is a large secret area that can be accessed by the railway.
Railway is more than active, there are trains riding in both directions.
Funny fact is that trains do not disappear after they enter the subway, but keep following the circled path beyond the map. On PS1 it is hidden from player due to low drawing distance, but on PC it is easy to notice vehicles floating in the night sky.
It's rather tricky, but player can actually perform a Car Plant off the trains.
New York is the only level set at night in THPS2.
