Well, it's not like the series has been any good in about a decade, sooooo... whatever, Tony.

 

[Effect]

It's the episode where

Spoiler

he leaves Donna.

Ah. Thank you.

 

[Muku]

Predicable.

Totally read that in my head as if it was Joshua from TWEWY saying that.

 

[darkside31337]

OlliOlli would not work on an iOS device, thats a load of shit. Seriously its so ridiculous a game that requires the inputs it has would work on a touch screen. It wouldn't be the same game at all.

Normally this news would bum me out but I had zero confidence that a good Tony Hawk game could be made in this day and age anyway.

 

[bigkrev]

Activision has not done much on iOS except some CoD Zombie stuff, which I don't think have microtransactions.

I'm actually way more excited for this than any console release- This is probably going to be a game made for the platform instead of something with clumsy on screen controls. If the game ends up being something like OliOli, i'll be pretty happy.

Edit: I actually went and checked- Call of Duty and Wipeout both have microtransactions, but none of the reviews mentioned them and niether game is free to play. The F2P Skylanders game that is a clone of every other F2P game has a ton of them though.

 

[pikablu]

If it is supported on the ngage i'll be interested.

 

[jond76]

Bahahahaha! Mobile....

That kinda sucks...




:'(

 

[EL CUCO]

So its coming to Vita? Sweet!

 

[prag16]

**** **** ****

[Nymphae]

Massive Tony Hawk (the games) fan here. This news is disgusting. Will not be buying.

 

[Winterfang]

Please don't be an endless runner.

 

[ICPEE]

Fuck my life

 

[HBP]

Curious to see what type of game it's going to be (I actually enjoy mobile gaming)

 

[Zarovitch]

That's the way to go, you see Nintendo.

 

[AmanoBuff]

Fuck it Hawk. I'll stick with OlliOlli on my Vita and I'll love it.

 

[RazielCuts]

Spoiler

No. Just no.

Olli Olli made a better Tony Hawk's game than you guys ever will at this point.

[Gaz_RB]

It could have been a new THPS renaissance but noooo

 

[Tenki]

...ok

 

[Dark_AnNiaLatOr]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuu. NOONONOOOOOOO! I was hoping for a great return!

 

[ZenTzen]

there was never gonna be a great return, the time for skateboarding games has passed, it was never gonna get big again

 

[dantevsninjas]

It's pretty rad that they decided to dig up this corpse and fuck it.

 

[Zarovitch]

there was never gonna be a great return, the time for skateboarding games has passed, it was never gonna get big again

Since the mobile is where to go, there's chance it'll be bigger than ever.
We will see.

 

[Dandalf]

This is bad news, Tony.

Then again, I can't blame him for wanting to cash in on possibly 700+ million users at $.99 a piece instead of four users at $39.99 a piece.

 

[Anth0ny]

Another one bites the dust.

 

[Silky]

FUCKING UGH

 

[QuantumZebra]

 

[mattp]

At least it's not a pachinko machine.

this is basically the west's version of the pachinko sequel lol

 

[FloppyDelux]

Not surprised..

 

[900bv]

You just went full Chad Muska, Hawk.

Fuck you.

 

[DidntKnowJack]

I don't know. Seems fitting to me that they would be doing this.

 

[Xenon]

The last time I cared about a Tony Hawk game was on the Dreamcast, so no big deal. Maybe they could do something new with touch controls to make it interesting...

Spoiler

LOL

 

[Rygar 8 Bit]

and there went any shred of hope i had for another good tony hawk game

 

[Twenty7KVN]

For some reason all i can do is laugh.

 

[THEaaron]

Yeah. The industry is like - oh no. Making games is sooo hard. And then put trash on mobile platforms.

Awww. This has to stop. The worst part is that they waste huge IPs from earlier times and remake them on mobile platforms.. dunno. That's like making a new Alien series and put it on 10am on the television every day.

WasteWasteWasteWaste

 

[Nyoro SF]

*Holds copy of THPS3 closer*

 

[-PXG-]

10 spacebux if it's a Temple Run clone

 

[kmax]

And some people insist that mobile doesn't affect the console industry.

What aboslute horse shit.

 

[vagabondarts]

What a waste. I'm sure all the board members are satisfied though.

Looking forward to the ios game market crashing one day, just saying.

 

[SwiftDeath]

Lame but expected considering previous statements on it

 

[Xater]

Guess that#s Activision's last "effort" to squeeze some more money out of the license before ditching it completely.

 

[massoluk]

What's Tony Hawk?

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

I blame THUG2 and shitty Bam Margera for starting the series decline.

 

[iNvid02]

Cheers tony

 

[topplehat]

Endless F2P runner in the style of Temple Run or Sonic Dash. Pay to get new boards or tricks or something.

 

[DoubleTake]

Wtf...lol *continues to wait patiently for Skate4*

 

[Amory]

I blame THUG2 and shitty Bam Margera for starting the series decline.

Whatever dude THUG 2 was goofy and awesome.

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

Wtf...lol *continues to wait patiently for Skate4*

It's dead Jim

 

[ThatCrazyGuy]

Endless F2P runner in the style of Temple Run or Sonic Dash. Pay to get new boards or tricks or something.

I bet it will look like subway surfers, hehe.

 

[Chabbles]

Not surprising considering a thread here on gaf afew months back stating the same thing.. Pretty sure there was an interview with Tony, where he was saying something along the lines of "mobile is where its at now".
