Let's Play Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4, Part 1 - Going to College

Well, here it is folks, the official start of my first Let's Play, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4. In this part, the first few goals of the first level (College) are done, as well as a minor task before that.

Some notes about this first part:
-As much as I didn't want to do it this way, I was essentially forced to do post-commentary. Trying to do live commentary (recording my voice with Audacity and the gameplay footage and sound with FRAPS), no matter how much I tried to get the two in sync, they wouldn't get in sync. This might be due to frame-skipping in FRAPS, which is needed so that the game audio syncs with the video.

-I mumble a lot. Deal with it. I'm a shy and nervous person, so my commentary won't be the clearest until later in the LP.

-I'm used my laptop's built-in mic to record my voice, but now have a headset to record. I started using the headset in part 4 if I'm not mistaken.

-I tried to emphasize getting a stat point on completion of a goal, but it sounds weird the way I say it, so that'll probably be changed for next time.

Well, please enjoy! Hopefully I'll get better at commentating later.

I remember playing this online on the PS2 all day. It was a pretty great community. We'd always make up our games if we got bored with the games they already had. I think that community died off with either THUG2 or AWL. The current tony hawk games are pure garbage though

@GuitarMacable If it were for the original Xbox, you might try looking for it in backward compatibility table. If not, then sorry THPS4 won't work.
