does he know that this game suks ass?

[oooELEKTRIKSTORMooo]

He doesnt look comfortable promoting this game, its as if he feels guilty for telling us to go out and buy this shit.

Tony needs to face the facts that the Skate franchise is the best

[antgolub]

you mean his games not the guy

[mrceven11]

i wish tony hawk game where a little more realistic. you ollie of a little kicker and it launches you 20 ft in the air. some people might like this but i dont.

[whitsnake8]

i feel bad for the dude i mean he is really proud of that game

[HeadbangingLegend]

Shit this looks glitchy lol

[Zenithson05]

a good skated would do tricks at the right moment but on the board it doesnt respond in time

down to earth? he seems to think this game's got great technology going for it. he also seems to think that activision will be willing to release a sequel.

and c'mon, let's leave the graphics out of it (i'm feeling generous.) the gameplay itself on the 'skateboard', i've heard lacks behind whatever you've done on the controller.

all jokes aside though, Tony Hawk is the pioneer of skateboarding. he has revolutionised it. he's a legend. this game is only a low for him.

[aidenmccloskey]

i'm surprised to see Tony Hawk promoting his game through a recorded intereview.

the game's a disaster apparently. i'm sure he's read the reviews, like we all have.

i mean if one review was saying that it was bad, then fair enough, but it's not just one. it's A LOT.

Guitar Hero's a success, because it's simple. tapping five buttons to match the virtual chords, isn't complex.

standing on a toy skateboard, attempting to pull off over twenty five moves is.
