Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD success merits 'a fuller game,' Robomodo says

4.6
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD managed to move into 120,000 hard drives during its first week on Xbox Live Arcade. Robomodo head honcho Josh Tsui told Gamasutra that early success will eventually lead to a "fuller game."

"By making it 'lower risk' we were allowed to take some chances, which benefits both developer and publisher," Tsui said. He also noted that "the prospect of a fuller game is definitely on the table" and that it's "just a matter of when and how."

Of course, first thing's first: PC and PS3 ports of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD are still waiting in the wings, as is some DLC focused around Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3. But after that, Tsui seems to think Activision will be more open to publishing a new game.

I think we can all agree that better graphics are good, but I do like "bad" graphics if its done right.


right, just depends on the game that's all.


Yep, as long as the game is fun the graphics shouldn't matter.


Well yeah, that was the case back in the day, but now that its the future where every game system has the capabilities to create good graphics, it's becoming a matter of graphics > gameplay, unfortunately.

Yup that's been the case nowadays.


It sucks because they should focus on good gameplay AND graphics.

I actually like the "bad" graphics. Reminds me of the old tony hawk games!


that's what makes the game complete!


I like good graphics though, like in Skate 3. But I also know what your saying, I used to spend hours on end playing underground.


You guys are really bad a quoting o.o

I like the older graphics on games like these because it reminds me of when I was a little kid playing them.


Yeah same here but I perfer better graphics.


Agreed on all you said and i dont mind playing old game just better graphics would do me
