New Hawk to Give “Thrill of Skateboarding Like Never Before”, News Coming at E3

VGN247 has the scoop.

Quote:
"Activision CEO Mike Griffith said in Acti Blizz’s Q1 earnings call yesterday that the new Tony Hawk game is to add a completely new dimension to the series. That’ll be a plastic skateboard, then.

“We are also planning to release our reinvention of Tony Hawk [later this year], with a very innovative and interactive game that lets consumers experience the thrill of skateboarding like never before,” said the boss.

“Our goal from the start was to reinvent this franchise back to its roots where we engaged a broad, mass market consumer, and we feel good about what this game can do. We will also unveil specifics at E3."

Hopefully this just means that there will be two realistic skating games around... that's good for everyone involved. They're aware that Skate basically ruined their market, so they have to go in that realistic direction but do it better, which I think is in the realm of possibility.
