IMAGINE SKATING BY KINECT

It’s no secret that there hasn’t been a successful Tony Hawk game in quite some time – but old school Tony Hawk fans still have hope – is Kinect the answer?

Personally, I don’t think so. The Tony Hawk games that I loved and the Tony hawk games that sold well were the Pro Skater and Underground games – the ones that stuck to the tried and true Tony Hawk formula.

If it ain’t broke – don’t fix it, so why is Tony so set on continuing to push motion gaming in his series when Tony Hawk Ride and Shred were both complete flops?

Well, we caught up with Tony at the VGAs and asked him what the future was for his “storied” franchise.

He told us that it’s all about motion gaming and handhelds. Turns out, he’s also keen on Kinect.
