Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 Launches, Dubbed Superior Music Discovery Tool to Spotify
The highly anticipated Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 has officially launched, instantly immersing players in a wave of early 2000s nostalgia while simultaneously delivering a surprising new utility: a powerful music discovery platform. Developed by Iron Galaxy, this pseudo-remake not only perfectly recaptures the iconic grind of the original series but also introduces a robust and heavily curated soundtrack that many are already hailing as superior to algorithmic streaming services like Spotify for finding new artists.
Beyond bringing back beloved punk rock anthems from Adolescents and CKY, the game’s soundtrack features a significant collection of entirely new additions. This diverse mix spans modern hip-hop, like tracks from Vince Staples and Danny Brown, to gloriously raw punk bands such as Jeff Rosenstock and the rising Irish rock outfit Fontaines D.C. This deliberate curation, akin to a hand-picked mixtape, offers a refreshing alternative to the often-unfocused recommendations of algorithms.
Players are reporting that their early hours spent with THPS 3 + 4 are not just about mastering tricks but also about uncovering their next favorite band. The soundtrack’s ability to seamlessly blend established acts like Motörhead with exciting new artists, including Wavves whose latest album “Spun” just released in late June, positions the game as an invaluable resource for music enthusiasts eager to explore fresh sounds within a beloved gaming experience.
