    How I remade Game™ in-

    YOU FOOL!

    How difficult is it to call it something like Toby Bird’s Overground? Feels particularly silly on somewhere like Youtube, where if the video blows up it’s likely any future hopes for your project will too (and this could happen at any arbitrary point in the future, though probably with a change of staff or just before a new competing title is about to be released).

    That and I feel that at least a little plausible deniability (while matching the feel) would add to the “Hey, has anyone ever told you that you look like Tony Hawk?” joke.

      I do wish that particular remake had included Underground’s addition of being able to get off the board and just walk around. It’s so much easier to setup a line when you can walk and not just constantly coast around.

      That was the plan before Activision was unimpressed by the numbers.

    I wish Underground, Underground 2 and American Wasteland got remasters.

    I don’t remember them being well liked at the time, but they were the best ones IMO. The only disappointment in American Wasteland was that by UG2, the series was perfected. Wasteland just gave us more of the same, and I guess to many that was already boring. Plus there was just a lot of people that hated Bam Margera in general.
