The first PlayStation 2 game to support online play is Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3, developed by Neversoft (USA) and released 30 October 2001.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3, developed by Neversoft and published by Activision, is unique because you did not need the chunky PS2 Network adapter to play it online, you just needed a standard USB to Ethernet adaptor and a dial-up connection.
