Tony Hawk's Pro Skater is kinda funny since, like, they got the rights to the likeness of the most famous skateboarder ever, and, instead of making a realistic skateboarding simulation like with a lot of popular soccer, football, ect. games, they opted to make the skaters absolutely ludicrously athletic and capable of impossible landings and animation cancels and whatnot.
Imagine if, in Madden, the real-life players were doing Wario shoulder bashes all over the place and jumping over each others' heads and that was just the football game.
I have no issues with it at all, I just think it's funny that it's the one very popular and long-running sports series (that specifically features IRL people rather than mascots) to opt to be so arcadey and over-the-top.
