Tony Hawk Ride

I dunno, why don't people go For Real Bowling anymore?

The problem with this game is that the fake toy actually costs more than a real board would.

That and the fact that nobody's cared about Tony Hawk games since the third one started taking the series into the shitter.

False. THUG was easily one of the best, maybe the best game in the series.

This game is getting a fucking beating in reviews.

Yeah, kinda funny. I'm taking a sadistic pleasure in how much of a colossal failure this is.

Activision can certainly afford it, though, with the ridiculous amount of bank they've made off MW2.

How do they figure that a kid would ask his parents to buy a $120 fake board to play a shitty game instead of buying a real board and skate for real.

Because actual skateboarding is one of the hardest things you can ever try doing. It's also just asking to get hurt very badly.

If I can find this and board for $20 I may pick it up, just out of sheer morbid curiosity. I figure this means I'll probably never play TH:Ride, but I can live with that.

Does not compute. You know how many kids rather skate for real than playing this POS game that cost more than an actual board? I have skated when I was a teenager and while it is dangerous, that's the furthest thing from my mind.

My wife's cousin opened up a skateboard shop last year here in Brooklyn, I will ask him if any of his customers bought this game. I am betting none.

It's still got to hurt though when DJ Hero tanked and their slew of Hero releases sold under expectations.

If this hits the bargain bins, I'll totally pick it up, as it could provide for some interesting moments. No way would I pay more than $20~$30 for this thing though.
