Tony Hawk reflects on his journey from a young skateboarder to a cultural icon, highlighting how his involvement in the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater video game series helped revive skateboarding's popularity and cement his legacy in pop culture, all while he continues to skate and enjoy his passion.
Iron Galaxy's latest Tony Hawk's game included a hidden reference to the Guitar Hero series, which has caused controversy and led to an apology and removal in the next update, as the developer investigates how it was included.
Players of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet have discovered a way to turn the game into a Tony Hawk's Pro Skater simulation using the new Indigo Disk DLC. The DLC introduced a synchronization feature that allows players to control their Pokemon, and players have been transforming their Pokemon into skateboarders, sharing viral clips on social media. The feature can be unlocked in the Central Plaza of the Terarium, and players are excited about the unexpected fun it brings to the game.
The Steam version of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 now has an offline mode, but it is exclusively available for Steam Deck users. PC players were frustrated with the always-online requirement, and while an update added offline support, it can only be accessed on Valve's portable PC. Fans have been trying to find workarounds, but so far, none have been successful. This move by Activision is unusual, as it locks out features for desktop players and restricts offline play to Steam Deck users.
VR Skater, a VR skateboarding game, is coming to PSVR2 and offers a gameplay loop similar to Tony Hawk's Pro Skater. The game requires physical movements to control the board and perform tricks, making it more extreme on the VR spectrum. The preview build has limited content, but the motion controls are responsive and the gameplay loop is addictive. However, the learning curve may be too steep for casual gamers, and the graphics need improvement. Overall, VR Skater is an exciting addition to the PSVR2 library for those who enjoy the physical side of VR or want to experience skateboarding without the risk of injury.
