WOW Alec! That is one awesome score! I couldn't touch that! :lol: Anyway, I made you a profile on the site and posted your score. If you could let me know the following two things to finish your profile that would be great:

1. Your top 3 Dreamcast games.
2. Live Games that you own (listed here).

@Neohound:

I take it back. You stink at this game! :lol: ;)

:lol: Thanks.

Yeah, but I can only get million point combos on the Bullrun, Mexico. I always follow specific lines for the most points. If you can score one of those, the heat is secured.

Nice score! Personally, I don't much like playing as Tony. He's got too many moves that take too long to execute. If you accidentally use one of these moves, you're likely to bail. Probably because he's a vert style. I stick to the street styles.

I've never really tried other skaters. I've always just picked Tony. I know what you mean about the tricks that take a long time to execute. I've done them a few times (Not on purpose mind you. I just button mash! lol). I don't know if I want to try another skater as I'm quite used to Tony by now but we'll see.

I never thought the day would come that I would be saying "Meh" to a 49,000 point trick in Tony Hawk... :lol:

Hahaha funny how that happens in video games. It's like when you're playing a driving game and you think "I'll never beat the fastest lap, but if you keep plugging away you smash it, and think "why did I ever doubt it ?" lol. It's one of those things which makes games so special.

Indeed. This has happened pretty consistently since I started these competitions. You can go back and look at my entries and compare the first and last ones. Quite a huge difference!
