S!CK Magazine
A 150-page issue diving into the secrets and wild history of the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater games—framed as the voice of a generation and a piece of counter-culture, packed with tricks, grabs, and tongue-in-cheek “virtual broken kneecaps.” Set at the end of the ’90s, it explores how an underground skate phenomenon—its riders, brands, lifestyle, and iconic bands—burst into the mainstream, and how a small group of “punk” programmers helped create one of the biggest cultural hits of the 2000s. The issue revisits Neversoft-made milestones from Tony Hawk's Pro Skater through Tony Hawk's Underground and Tony Hawk's American Wasteland, while also reflecting on the series’ peak, decline, triumphs, and missteps in a deep feature on the roots of the phenomenon.
In its cross-culture section, it also touches on Final Fantasy VII, the music of Batman: Arkham Asylum, Doom Eternal, and The Leftovers.
