Tony Hawk RIDE

This game has gotten universally bad reviews. I can't say I didn't expect it when they showed the peripheral at E3 earlier this year. It looks like it could be a candidate for one of the worst games ever made. I don't see it selling well even after a price drop (it currently retails for $120). I don't think the Tony Hawk series will be back after this. EA Skate dethroned and destroyed it for good.

Here are some reviews:

IGN

Giant Bomb


Thoughts?

Tony Hawk steadily rode downhill ever since the first game. Though underground was kind of neat.

I didn't think anyone cared at this point.

1&2 were excellent. The others were gash, underground was entertaining for a while but never rekindled the charm of the first two. Ahhh I can remember the sound tracks too. "RIDE" eh? Another new name?

The T-Mobile screen embed is a complete turnoff for me. They were obviously trying to get the trendy douchebag demographic.

The video that appears on the T-Mobile thing looks like something out of a Sega CD game.

Looks completely retarded. Not what the Tony Hawk series needs if they were looking to change up the formula.

Looks like a decent idea; pity. I liked the old games, still play THPS 2. # 4 was also good for the while I had it.

Tony Hawk 2 on Dreamcast - originally not interested in a game like that, I decided to be open minded and give it a shot. Damn, that game was outstanding.

Tony Hawk 2 had an awesome soundtrack iirc.

Underground was pretty cool, too, though I thought Project 8 was a real POS.

That vid just demonstrates how god damn simplified the game is going to be to make it easy to use that board.
