8.Eric Sparrow (Tony Hawk: Underground)
THUG was undeniably one of the games that held the title of "my personal favorite game of all time" at some point. Eric Sparrow was your best friend from New Jersey who accompanied you throughout your rise to skate board stardom. The only problem is that he totally claimed to accomplish an amazing stunt you pulled over a helicopter as his own.
That's not even the worse part. He also tricks you into thinking he wants a reconcilliation, only to get you into serious trouble as you land in jail somewhere in Moscow. Don't worry, you get to prove him wrong!
