Tony Hawk's Shred (Session) Announced (iOS/Android)

Mobile-only.

No skateboard required, I guess... looks fun so far?

Shred Session is getting its finishing touches right now, and like all free to play games, will feature a brief soft launch before a worldwide roll out. The soft launch is scheduled inside of the next few weeks with a "full" launch coming this summer. In spending the day with Tony, one thing was clear: He's really excited for this game, and he's poured tons of time and attention in to it. If that's not reason enough to be similarly stoked, I don't know what is.

A lane runner?

I think I will stick with this one in my Gameboy Micro:

What is the microtransaction element? Couldn't tell from the video, and there is no way they are charging money for this

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
I remember when Tony Hawk (2) was hip as hell and everyone bragged about how much points they could gather up within the 2 minute time-limit in the PS1-demo.

Hopefully they can expand on the concept in the future. Seems very Temple Run-esque.

But this feels like the right market. And I've always appreciated Hawk's hands on approach to the THPS series.

There were only 100 sequels to that game? And if you are talking about the 2 minute run style of games, Tony Hawk HD was for you

Yeah, if you liked terrible physics and a soulless husk of two fan favorites, without even any splitscreen so compensate.
