Activision Games

The game that perfected arcade skating — THPS2 added manuals (extending trick combos endlessly), the Create-A-Skater, eight-minute runs, and a soundtrack that defined early 2000s culture.

Neversoft's revolutionary skateboarding game didn't just create a genre — it changed how a generation thought about skateboarding, music, and sports games entirely. With accessible combo-building, brilliantly designed levels, and a soundtrack that defined late-1990s alternative culture, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater is one of the most influential games ever made.

David Crane's jungle adventure classic challenged players to guide Pitfall Harry through 255 screens of deadly hazards collecting treasures within twenty minutes. One of the first true action-platformers and one of the most acclaimed Atari 2600 games ever made.
