Tony Hawk's Pro Skater is a game series that needs no introduction. It's one of the most popular and successful video game franchises of all-time.

But, as is tradition here on The Retro Blast Podcast, we like to go back to where it all started with the game that blindsided gamers everywhere.

Join me and my guest co-host, Darren Hupke of 'Pixels and Polygons', and Author of the '32 Bit Library' book series (and more!), as we take you back to 1999 to talk all about why this game meant so much to us.
