Everybody enjoys a good time and I can't really say I know any teenager that didn't wish to glide his skateboard like Tony Hawk. No more bruises are needed and no more sad faces in front of a trick that seems impossible. The legend has made its

way to the PC and every trick you've ever dreamed of executing is just at the length of a few key stroke combinations. The amazing world of skateboarding is brought even closer to you with the addition of a great soundtrack featuring songs by Red Hot Chili Peppers, Xzibit and Alien Ant Farm. Now, you may not be able to enjoy the luxurious life of the star, but you can surely skate like him tricking off through the eight levels that will take you from L.A. to Tokyo, from Suburbia to Skater's Island. There are even rewards hidden in the game for you to discover, like pro footage.

Along a short, but very helpful list of cheat codes for you to enter at the Cheat Menu, a list of the unlockables in the game awaits you.

Cheat Codes
backdoor - All Cheats
roadtrip - All Levels
YOHOMIE - All Characters
Peepshow - All FMVs

If cheating is not really your favorite, then you can take a look at what you're supposed to do to get the unlockable content the fair way.

Unlockable Characters and Unique Abilities
Unlocking a new character is all about completing every single goal (that is 54 goals) and earning three gold medals. That will unlock the first character. Next you'll need to do the same thing again playing as another character to unlock someone else. The list for the stuff to unlock looks like this:

1. Darth Maul
2. Wolverine
3. Warehouse Level
4. Officer Dick
5. Private Carrera
6. Burnside Level
7. Ollie, the Magic Bum
8. Kelly Slater
9. Roswell Level
10. Demoness
11. Snowboard Mode
12. Always Special Mode
13. Perfect Rail Balance Mode
14. Super Stats Mode
15. Giant Mode
16. Slowmo Mode
17. Perfect Manual Balance Mode
18. Tiny Mode
19. Moon Physics Mode
20. Expert Mode
21. First Person Mode

Unlockable FMV Sequences
I can assure you unlocking the characters above was not without rewards. Not only will you get some cool looking skaters, but there is even more hidden content waiting for your great skills. There are FMV sequences to be unlocked if you complete all the goals using a certain character. Different characters unlock different stuff and here is a list of all that.

Darth Maul - Unlocks Neversoft Bails FMV sequence;
Ollie The Magic Bum - Unlocks Neversoft Friends FMV sequence;
Wolverine - Unlocks Neversoft Makes FMV sequence;
Demoness - Unlocks Neversoft Old School FMV sequence;
Officer Dick - Unlocks Pro Retro FMV sequence;
Kelly Slater - Unlocks Slater surf FMV sequence.
