Bei The Verge konnte jemand schon die Warehouse-Demo zocken, die es ab morgen (14.08.2020) für alle Vorbestellen geben wird. Sein Eindruck macht mir große Hoffnung, dass das Spiel etwas geworden ist:
"The Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater remaster feels great. (...) I haven’t played THPS in many years, so I can’t exactly say the remaster is completely faithful in terms of controls. But it feels the way I remember it playing; likely, that means developer Vicarious Visions smoothed over some of the awkward animations and controls so that the new version didn’t seem dated. Whatever the studio did, it worked. (...) THPS1+2 does what it says: it plays like classic Tony Hawk while looking like a brand-new game."

EDIT: Dieses Preview von Destructoid klingt auch top:
"Picking everything back up in the very first level I played in this series in 1999 felt like second nature; in part due to Vicarious Vision's commitment to the classics. Unlike the 2012 remake from Robomodo, which had its own issues with the Unreal Engine 3 skeleton, this one feels much closer to the original. Vicarious Visions is one-upping Robomodo by bringing back split-screen on top of that. Activision isn't keen to make the same mistakes twice, it seems. (...)
As for my early impressions with it: There's something so surreal about listening to the lyrics for Superman and hearing "I'm getting older all the time" 21 years after playing the original Tony Hawk's Pro Skater. This is a series practically everyone I knew at least dabbled in. I hope that same sense of community blossoms out of a strong foundation for Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2, and sets the stage for more remasters and a proper follow-up."

EDIT 2: Und Polygon ebenfalls:
"The Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 and 2 demo is everything I wanted it to be. (...) This is the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater I remember, and I can play it like I remember, which is everything I wanted from this updated version. The rebuilt and retextured levels I could take or leave, although the updated look modernizes the experience visually to such an extent that it wouldn’t look out of place as a brand-new game in 2020. (...)
If you loved the first two Tony Hawk games, this demo will get you even more excited to see how the rest of the levels look and play when Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 and 2 is released on PlayStation 4, Windows PC, and Xbox One on Sept. 4."
