Neversoft: No more Tony Hawk for us, thanks

Remember when Tony Hawk games were, of all things, fun? Seriously kids, you may be too young to believe this, but the Tony Hawk franchise used to be a staple in the Minsker household. If a new sequel to Tomb Raider, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater or Grand Theft Auto came out, we'd all jump up and buy it.


Lately, however, Hawk hasn't been an alluring figure in gaming. His games have suffered in comparison to the Skate games. Plus, did anybody else play Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam for the Wii? Awful.

Finally, Neversoft have hung up their skating helmets and have promised to stick to the Guitar Hero games. Co-founder Joel Jewett has confirmed that they've passed off the franchise to another developer. So let's revamp and get back to the old favorite, shall we?
