So, a caterer at a @tonyhawk event totally just posted a photo that has "Tony Hawk 5" in the background. #THPS please pic.twitter.com/g7cK3iDRVE

Ouch.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Viral marketing.

 

[Data West]

Still not getting excited til I see more. They were saying all the right things initially with HD too.

 

[Nyoro SF]

LOL, these leaks...

Here's hoping the game is a return to form.

 

[viveks86]

LOL. Could very well be intentional

 

[Unicorn]

He better be a playable skater. Special moves is throwing food around.

 

[Alienous]

That's not the full title.

It's actually Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 3: Tony Hawk 5.

 

[Creaking]

Didn't we already hear word that a Tony Hawk game was coming this year?

 

[BennyBlanco]

wouldn't it be like tony hawk 10 at this point?

i distinctly remember playing tony hawk 8

 

[maquiladora]

oh shi-

 

[Sami+]

If not intentional I feel really bad for that guy

 

[Jawmuncher]

Come On story mode that's at least on par with THUG.

 

[SnowFlakeCake]

Chef Khan with the scoop of the century right there

 

[Bubbavelli]

At this point I think im more excited to see a Skate 4 rather than THPS 5 although a licensed skating game would be nice regardless

 

[Vidpixel]

That's a very big 5.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Didn't we already hear word that a Tony Hawk game was coming this year?

We did, but only from the Birdman (TM) himself. This suggests we're probably going to hear a lot more soon.

 

[dallow_bg]

Back to mainline?

Yes please.

 

[ascii42]

wouldn't it be like tony hawk 10 at this point?

i distinctly remember playing tony hawk 8

Yes, it'll be the 10th mainline game. But 4 was the last one where it was called Tony Hawk's Pro Skater #. 8 was called Tony Hawk's Project 8.

 

[Jamie OD]

That could be Tony Hawt 5 for all we know.

 

[The Sarcastic Dude]

Didn't we already hear word that a Tony Hawk game was coming this year?

Yeah, but there wasn't a title announced.

 

[liliththepale]

That venue is dope.

 

[Gouda Jouji]

wouldn't it be like tony hawk 10 at this point?

i distinctly remember playing tony hawk 8

I think Tony said it would be a Pro Skater game last year, so the 5 makes sense.

 

[RowdyReverb]

I would be so damned frustrated if I was in PR/Marketing for this game, assuming it's a true leak of course

 

[Jawmuncher]

wouldn't it be like tony hawk 10 at this point?

i distinctly remember playing tony hawk 8

"in order to be part of the Project 8 tour."
So since that was story related they can kind of cheat with the order.

 

[FrsDvl]

Come On story mode that's at least on par with THUG.

Come on no story mode!

I just want good old skating, online, 2 minutes trick attack. Oh I miss online THPS3

 

[KatamariOnTheRocks]

Day 0 buying several copies to show love for the THPS series. Really hope it's a true THPS 5 and not another stupid gimmick like Ride that serves no purpose other than to damage the I.P. with a garbage game nobody asked for.

 

[The Argus]

You'd think he learned not to do this back in art school...

Oh caterer jokes so much fun. Sorry.

I would welcome a true THPS reboot with open arms.

 

[gdt]

ive made a huge mistake

 

[Creaking]

wouldn't it be like tony hawk 10 at this point?

i distinctly remember playing tony hawk 8

Yeah, but they stopped numbering them after Pro Skater 4 (except for THUG 2 and quasi-numbering in the title of Project 8). Presumably, they're calling it five to identify it as Pro Skater 5.

 

[godhandiscen]

Poor dude, I wonder if he will get fired.

 

[Rebel Leader]

hope it was intentional

edit: by this I mean he doesn't get in trouble

 

[Alienous]

Poor dude, I wonder if he will get fired.

Only if the food tastes like shit.

 

[NerdEyeBlind]

Perhaps part of the Call of Duty reveal...

Call of Duty Black Ops 3: Tony Hawk 5

All Activision right?!

 

[Sephiroth_GR_]

Awesome! so when's the event?

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Awesome. Grab a bite to eat, do a 1080, then get a sip of wine.

 

[BennyBlanco]

Damn, if this is really a throwback to the original THPS series I would be so hyped.

I mean S K A T E collectibles. The hidden videotape. 2 Min runs. Ollie the Magic Bum. All that.

 

[BosSin]

Lol, nice

 

[Jawmuncher]

Come on no story mode!

I just want good old skating, online, 2 minutes trick attack. Oh I miss online THPS3

If this is a 60 dollar title they can easily handle both. THUG handled both greatly.

 

[Palocca]

Poor dude, I wonder if he will get fired.

Since he's a caterer, he'll probably be fine. Might get blacklisted from future events though.

 

[LiK]

The 5 is so ugly

 

[『Inaba Resident』]

Didn't Tony Hawk straight up say we're getting a new game?

 

[Philippo]

If its not leaked from a plane, i don't believe it.

Still, i'm mostly excited for the soundtrack, past titles were sooo goood in that regard.

 

[Nosgotham]

Hellll yes! 3 and 4 are my favorites. I liked thug and American sk8land but I'm glad they are going back to the basics

 

[CosmicQueso]

Poor dude, I wonder if he will get fired.

If he signed an NDA before the event... hooooo boy.

 

[Cassius]

I played THPS 1-4 so much. Those were such fun games.

 

[creatchee]

Caterers > GAF > Internet > GAF

I really hope that they take it back to T.H.U.G. style with missions and such.

 

[BumblebeeCody]

Caterers > GAF > Internet > GAF

I really hope that they take it back to T.H.U.G. style with missions and such.

T.H.U.G was pretty much Viva La Bam the game.

00:00 on the clock
*Goes into manual*
*Spams up, down, left right and Square, Circle and Triangle*
*keeping that balance*
It's a test of stamina.

I want that game back

 

[Alienous]

Awesome. Grab a bite to eat, do a 1080, then get a sip of wine.

Hope you have a PS4.

 

[TM94]

So gnarly dude.

 

[BrunoM]

Ain't that the same vert from the very first level in proskater 2 ? Lol

I must say I feel in love with skate 3 and been kopibg for a skate 4 but if this is arcade like THPS 2,3 I may jump on it for the fun

But EA needs to get on with Skate4
