Thanks for posting this! I didn't have the energy to do it lol.

Why would the yellow special meter trigger a blue line? Shouldn't they be the same color so you know what the hell is happening? Ha


Also, is this the most active THPS board? I've been posting on Reddit (theJFKshow), but that's about it.

[sk8ace]

We are a pretty new forum. Trying to build up the activity. Hoping to be a main one for THPS5 when it comes out. Most of the old thps forums are gone now..

Awesome. Let me know if you need help with graphics. I might propose a quick CSS redesign.

Did they change level names?

[sk8ace]

I believe the level names we saw originally were just general names as placeholders. Glad they weren't the real names haha.

I am going to have to buy a PS4 before the game comes out......

I was excited to hear the announcement back a while ago. Excited when it was shown with just a quick glimpse during the Sony E3 Press Con. And now that King of the Hill is going to be in it?

You don't know how big of a smile I have on my face right now


(This is []Black Magic[])


Can't wait to be playing KOTH again! (Or RLAP as Brown put it back in the day.)

[sk8ace]

Woohoo! you finally joined :-)

Get ready for lots of KOTH!

[The_Con-Sept]

You know what is funny? I have nearly the same profile ID number from KXTH on here..... I think I was 26 on KXTH....

But yeah.... Wall Shuffle...... Discuss!

Knowing that we will not be able to get off of our boards is one thing... But there are wall rides....

[sk8ace]

The no getting off boards should be easy to get used to.. It's the tapping R2 to push off/skate instead of holding X that is going to be hard.

Wallrides look much better than in THPSHD. Maybe we will find a similar glitch to recreate WS.

[The_Con-Sept]

I really hope they add in the get off board stuff. Made the game of Koth that much harder to predict. but... the slam idea is something I wanted since THPS3. I really hope they add in the wall jump at least. But wall shuffling.... I hope it makes a return...
