The Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater video game franchise was an absolute revelation in the industry, as well as a huge attraction for gamers on the whole.

I know even just personally, growing up it was one of the most popular things you could be playing, whether or not you knew anything about skateboarding, or even if you were interested in it.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater and its sequels were as big, or bigger than any sports game on the consoles, showing an ability to break through to the mainstream that’s incredibly difficult.

The appeal of this game, as well as how it came to be, is the subject of the new documentary Pretending I’m a Superman: The Tony Hawk Video Game Story.

Minka Kelly Talks Adulting on ‘Euphoria’ After Being a Teen Queen on ‘Friday Night Lights’

Mónica Marie Zorrilla SPOILER ALERT: Do not read if you have not watched Season 2 of “Euphoria” on HBO. Lyla Garrity, the bubbly, spoiled country princess of “Friday Night Lights” iconically portrayed by Minka Kelly, had a thing for football jocks and hyping them up on the field, but that’s just about where the superficial similarities between Lyla and “Euphoria’s” Maddy Perez (Alexa Demie) — TV’s latest teen queen bee — end. Garrity was a cotton-candy angel compared to Perez’s sour and smart-mouthed demeanor.

Kamila Valieva is sad Winter Olympics story but British sport has its own doping problem

Winter Olympics.But perhaps British sport should get its own house in order before people single out one person from Russia who has tested positive for the banned angina drug trimetazidine.I'm not condoning what Valieva has done, because she shouldn't be allowed on the ice in Beijing.But we have more pressing issues to deal with on our own doorstep, following the bombshell revelations from former Rugby League stars Ollie Wilkes and Jamie Acton that they were involved in widespread doping throughout their careers.Those who follow the sport have spent years marvelling at how these supreme athletes put their bodies on the line week in, week out to cope with the demands of what is a brutal business.But in one fell swoop, Wilkes and Acton have called into serious question the integrity of an entire sport, tarnished the good names of all those who remain clean and left the game's rulers facing more questions than answers.Wilkes, who captained Scotland, revealed he was taking illegal substances at the time he secured a 'dream' move to Wigan, claims coaches used to encourage stars to go missing when UCAD testers turned up at clubs, and said one team-mate even injected himself in his car en-route to a training session.Acton, meanwhile, took to social media to accuse Rugby League of going to great lengths to keep drug use a secret.The timing of these damaging admissions and allegations is horrendous.The new Super League season began last weekend with fireworks and fanfare, while a Rugby League World Cup will take place on these shores in the autumn.Wilkes is now being lauded in some quarters as some sort of brave whistleblower.
