Tony Hawk's Underground 2 is the sequel to the original Tony Hawk's Underground.
Story Mode
You begin the game by creating a character, or using the default created skater. The game starts when your created skater (or the default) is seen ripping it up at a local spot, and is promptly grabbed and tossed into a black van. Inside you find other skaters who have been kidnapped. Then, Bam Margera and Tony Hawk explain their plans for the first annual World Destruction Tour, a "sick-as-hell" around-the-world skateboarding tour. The main goal of the World Destruction Tour is to create havoc, and have a good time. The skaters then split into two teams, Team Hawk and Team Bam, and you are picked last out of the group, but join Team Hawk. The tour goes to real world locations like Boston, Mexico, Australia, New Orleans, and more, with the two teams competing for points by doing silly and dangerous stunts. The story is very lighthearted and just plain silly at times, featuring such characters like Big Foot, and skeletons doing the bidding of the dead. You briefly join Team Bam but it doesn't work out, and you rejoin Team Hawk. Later in the game, the teams meet Nigel Beaverhausen, a strange documentarist, who wants to film the tour for the public. Both teams refuse, and instead play a joke on him. After meeting with him the second time they agree, but only because he promises to pay for the whole trip. The game ends at Skatopia, a skaters heaven. Here, your character ruins Bam's destruction of the place when he gets out of control, thus ending the Destruction Tour.
Gameplay
You can skate around in a 3D environment modeled after various cities and attempts to complete various goals. Most goals involve skating on or over various objects or performing combos. In this game you can play as mutiple characters in the story mode as you find them and not all of them use skateboards so you get to ride new vehicles (like a battery powered wheelchair). New features have been added to the series such as new tricks like flips and rolls. Another new feature is a graffiti spray mechanic, that allows you to create a tag and spray it wherever you desire. When you fall off of your board you can perform a 'freak out' where you get angry and get points which then can be used for a combo.
Classic Mode
As well as the story you can also play the classic mode. which allows players to skate through both new and remade classic levels in the traditional 10-goal, two-minute time limit mode which where included in the first of the Tony Hawk games. Some of the levels in classic mode are remakes from other Tony Hawk games.
