    Only out in the US right now. Should be out in the rest of the world in May, according to Tony Hawk (via Twitter).

    Not sure how the reviewer gave it a 9/10 based on how he really likes the controls when he clearly has never played a Tony Hawk game, let alone know what a skateboard is. Not sure if others noticed, but he hit the ollie button maybe 3 times in that terrible review video. It's awfully frustrating to watch someone pretend like their review means anything more than a grain of shit when they can't comprehend the JUMP button, agh.

    Well I now love this game! I can land 10x combos no problem now, and I actually prefer the Dpad...

    If you're in Canada and can pick up one of those Vanilla Mastercards, just register the card to a valid US address, and open a US iTunes account with the same address and buy away.

    Wish I could test out getting a million in one combo on the downtown level but no UK release means I will have to play it on ps2.

    Well not exactly, this is what he wrote:

    tonyhawk Just got word that #THPS2foriPhone will be internationally available "relatively soon" (I predict before May, but I just work here)
    about 11 hours ago

    Before May sounds much better than in May. It may be out as soon as a week or two. I want it now!

    I suppose they are the same as in the other versions. Play through the game with every level at 100% with one character and the cheat menu is enabled. Then repeat that with every charakter and the cheats are eneabled one by one.

    I stand corrected. Hopefully it will be soon; it's quickly become one of my favorite iDevice games.

    Go for it. I just picked it up and it is easily the best skateboarding game in the App Store by far.

    Don't you just hate stuff like this. Why not release it around the world all at once? There's no technical reason for it, stupid licensing restrictions probably. It's pathetic.

    I'd say licensing is a very technical reason. ;)
