Hey,
I picked up Tony Hawk's Underground yesterday at Target for $16.00 (woo!) and I sat down to check it out tonight. When I'm playing, the game seems to do some odd things that make me feel like I got a bad pressed copy. Can someone confirm that their copy does not do the following things that I found odd:
- At the "Loading" screens, fills the bar and then waits for about 30-45 seconds to move on.
- Any time I go to talk with someone, when the box says, "Press A to continue" when I do the game freezes for a few seconds (ten-ish?) before moving on.
- Any time I win a competition, the game freezes for about ten seconds before moving on.
- At certain points, the music makes a sound like a ton of stuff falling over / a bass-y CD being scratched a lot. It did this when I saved my game. It didn't sound like music, and I listen to the type of music that were on the first four THPS games, so I don't think it's that...
Can anyone confirm this is messed up? If not, I'm pretty saddened that the always solid THPS gameplay is interupted by something that looks so shoddily programmed :(
