Introduction:
For the most part this game has very easy achievements that are not hampered by glitches and are not missable. To get the full 1000 however, you will have to endure the arduous process of finding all of the games’ many gaps.
Step 1: Complete Story Mode 100%
You need to complete every goal in each of the 9 story areas to get 100% completion of the games’ story mode. I would recommend doing this on the easy difficulty because a few of the goals can get quite tricky on the higher difficulties (For example ‘Dismantle the Combo Pipes’ on the Oil Rig, ‘Show Tony Alva You’re Hardcore’ in Santa Monica and ‘Nollies with Stevie Williams’ in East LA). Doing this will earn you every story related achievement which will total 400.
Step 2: Get the high score on every level
Enter free skate mode, pause, and select ‘Start High Score Run’. Now simply score 2000 points (very easy in one combo) then pause and select ‘End High Score Run’. Rinse and repeat for all 15 areas. Doing this will earn you another 150.
Step 3: Complete all ‘Classic Mode’ Goals
Complete all goals in ‘Classic Mode’ in each of the 6 classic levels. See “Classic Mode: 100%” in the achievement guide for more details. Doing this will earn you 200.
Step 4: Play every level on Xbox Live
This is much easier than it sounds, simply go into the Xbox Live menu and select ‘Beverly Hills’ as the level. As soon as you enter the game you will get the relevant achievement. Rinse and repeat for all 15 areas. Doing this will earn you 150.
NOTE: You don’t have to be in a match with other players to get these.
Step 5: Get all Skate Park pieces and find all gaps
The most time consuming step. You have to go back and get all Skate Ranch Pieces you missed and find all the gaps in every area, including classic levels. For help with gaps see https://thps3.net/THAW/. Doing this will earn you 100 which should complete your 1000
!
Conclusion:
If by any chance you have followed these steps and still do not have the full 1000, consider revising your gap and skate ranch pieces lists; this is the most common source of missed achievements in this game.
