Experience the true thrill of skateboarding as never before through the revolutionary new skateboard controller in Tony Hawk: Ride. Bundled with the Ride game, the unique motion-sensitive board controller redefines the action-sports genre by translating your body motions into the game. No buttons, no thumbs, no analog sticks—just you on the board. For the first time in video game history, anyone can jump on a skateboard and feel the freedom, creativity, and accomplishment of skateboarding.
Fans of board sports will love the authentic experience of the board controller, while the intuitive nature of the board and multiple difficulty settings make it a fun and exciting experience for people of all ages and skill levels. The ease with which anyone can pick up and play this game and each player's unique playing style make this a fun social game for friends and family to play together. So, are you ready to Ride?
As a long time fan of the Tony Hawk games, I was thrilled to give this game a try. However, the thrill was gone once I played Tony Hawk: Ride with my nephews. Somehow we just couldn't get into this game. The basic movements (ollies, push-offs, nollies, etc) does not always work when you want them to work. I would want to do one thing and my character would do the exact opposite. This got really old after awhile. The only thing impressive about the game are the graphics and the track list, which features bands such as Green Day, Modest Mouse, Chevelle, etc.
