I'd recommend Session or even SkaterXL, if you're wanting a badass skating game. They're like the Skate (1, 2, and 3) games, except on steroids. One stick controls one foot, and the other stick controls the other foot and you have to flick them all in different directions to do tricks and such. You can customize the gameplay to be as simple or as hardcore as you want, and there's a nice barebones story (at least for Session) to string you along and teach you harder tricks and rest your skill. You also unlock new customization options, which I'll say each tiny little adjust to your deck can actually make a difference during gameplay. You can tighten or loosen each truck individually as much as you want, change each individual wheel, change the hardness of the wheels so they grip more; there are even truck risers and deck rails you can put on there.
Thanks for the recommendations but it's the arcade style of TH that I'm after rather than a skating sim. Plus the humour of the Underground and American Wastelamd games was simple but enjoyable for me.
I remember Bam freaking out about the tanks in the Moscow level, but that's about it
