Tony Hawk: Ride platforms confirmed News • News • Eurogamer.net

News Xbox 360 PlayStation 3 Wii

Hands-free skating for PS3, 360 and Wii.

Activision has confirmed that Tony Hawk: Ride will appear on PS3, Wii and Xbox 360 "later this year". RoboModo will develop PS3 and 360 versions while Buzz Monkey creates for Wii.

Tony Hawk: Ride has been built around a wireless skateboard controller, which was pictured and demonstrated last week. The board has sensors and an accelerometer, and lets players realistically mimic the extreme sport in their houses.

All involved are, needless to say, confident: Activision's marketeer Rob Kotisch thinks the board is a "massive step forward" for the entire industry.

Why not just get a real skateboard and go do it for real? The whole thing bout the original TH games was that they were playing fast and loose with the realism. Now that it has to be excruciatingly real, you might as well just do it for real. With the added bonus of getting a real emo chick on your arm, you scraggly sk8er.
