Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 Trailer - The Skaters, More Details on Create-A-Park

[Steve_OS]

Check out the latest Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 trailer, featuring all 10 skaters in the game. For those of you that haven't been following along with the title, you can choose from the following skaters:

• Tony Hawk
• Riley Hawk
• Chris Cole
• David Gonzalez
• Lizzie Armanto
• Nyjah Huston
• Leticia Bufoni
• Andrew Reynolds
• Aaron "Jaws" Homoki
• Ishod Wair

Activision Community Manager, Josh Engen, has posted more details about the new Create-A-Park feature in the game, which includes over 250 usable objects.

Start out by selecting your location (beach, skatepark, school, warehouse, and a super-secret locale), select the size of your park (small, medium, large) and start designing your park.

Building a park that has perfect, skatable lines with enough variability that skaters are forced to be creative is difficult, but THPS5 allows players to seamlessly switch between skate-mode and editing mode. So, as I created my own park, I would repeatedly pause construction to skate and reskate the new lines, adjusting them slightly to increase or decrease their difficulty.

THPS 5 comes out on September 29 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One and November 10 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. You can pre-order it now. For more Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 news, screenshots and videos, check out this page.

Is EA really never going to make a new gen version of Skate??? I mean seriously, that game took a big steamy dump on the Tony Hawk series.

Interesting art design. I honestly would not have minded giving this game an opportunity if they didn't do the little star graphic and allow you to do that magnetizing thing to grind rails.

Can we get a true, honest to goodness ,remake of THPS2???

Doesn't look all that bad. Doesn't look all that good either.

This is the PS4. Needs to be more, much more. Tony Hawk's Skate City. Yes, City. Full on city, with other NPC skaters and pedestrians. Anything less just seems like a step back at this point.

the create a skater is more like a customize the skater.

in this day age you'd think you'd be able to make yourself.

shows how ADVANCED skate 3 was for its time....Skate 3 still a brilliant game

I really only care about gameplay and from what I watched it looked like they did a good job. I'm also a fan of the cell shading but I can see how people will be turned off by the graphics.

No way it is a $60 game

I just played for an hour and didn't see anything like that. I'm sure it's there but that guy in the video isn't exactly trying to play the game and if he was he's awful.


I did a few missions and actually skated around doing tricks and saw nothing like that.

I mean 95 percent of that video is just awful landings. I guess the game plays better when you actually stay on the board?

Yeah, looks like he was trying hard to exploit the glitches.

The only real turn-offs for me in this game are that "slam magnet" feature and the Mario star kind of thing. Everything else just looks like THPS, and I'm fine with that.

I'm really enjoying it. This is coming from someone who thinks Tony hawk 3 is a top 5 game ever though.

The special thing is different. Once your meter fills you hit lb to activate it. Then you get that blue trail thing you are talking about. After that every move you do is flashier and worth more points. I think I would have preferred the old method of just hitting the right button combos to do specials once your meter filled but it's not awful my any means. The slam thing doesn't change the game much for me.

According to Polygon this game is profoundly broken.

Re: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 Trailer - The Skaters, More Details on Create-A-Park

And yet I'm going on 2-3 hours play time and Ive seen nothing that shows its broke. Those guys are having issues during the tutorial. That's like 2 minutes in.
