God, this is depressing. I haven't played a Tony Hawk game since THPS2, but someone without both arms and one leg could play ANY of these games better than Phil. I know that there are times that you'll wipe out because you over/under rotate on something, there will be times the physics are wonky and you don't catch a rail for a grind *just* right. But to see a real full-blooded-ItalianbywayofPoland gamer fail to do a goddamn ollie is a complete travesty. And he blames the game, not his mashing of buttons.
When he has the controller in frame, he looks like he's one of those people in a TV show having to pretend to play a video game while on camera: mashing thumbs everywhere so it sounds like they're actually playing a game. The scene in 40 Year Old Virgin (oddly fitting, cause I don't think Phil has had pussy since pussy had him) where Seth Rogan and Ant-Man are playing Mortal Kombat exemplifies this to a T. All you hear is click-clack-click to infinity, which is how Phil sounds when he's playing anything.
Reminds me of having a younger brother who wanted to play games with me, and I gave him an unplugged controller and told him he was TOTALLY being second player. Mash mash mash....
