Tony Hawk's Pro Skater - Great Series or Greatest Series?
These games rule. In fact, they're so damn amazing I have to make a thread about them right now. I remember the first time I ever played on the THPS games and I was at my friend's house. We were on the Dreamcast playing Tony Hawk's 2. I found it amazing, and followed the series very closely after that.
The games were great (until recently, when they started getting shit) with great storylines, funny characters and challenging goals. The soundtracks were awesome too. I think my favorite game of the series was either THPS3 or THUG 2. So many challenges, so many goals to complete. I even went through the game getting all the gaps afterwards.
Basically, THPS games are epic - discuss.

They ruined it for me
It's one of the best overall because the games were all so good up to a certain point. The Need For Speed series is a great series as well. The games were all good, also up to a certain point.
So for me it's a tie between Tony Hawk and NFS.
Then my brother-in-law, who had grown up nearly exclusively playing the series, kicked my ass hard. I was good, and still am, I haven't met anyone else who I couldn't royally pwn, but my brother-in-law was re-fucking-cockulous good.
It's a lost cause to play that guy. In his prime (he hasn't played in a few years, so he might be rusty) he could bust Three-Million point combos on a regular basis--in THPS3, before all the cheap ass manual variations.
