Tony Hawk Ride may have been met with mostly unfavorable reviews, but now that the skateboard peripheral is in the homes of disappointed children everywhere, it's only logical that developer Robomodo would want to put out at least one more game to make full use of the device.
Similar sentiment was expressed by Robomodo president Joshua Tsui when he said the controller was seen as a platform by the company. And a tweet by Tony Hawk about his next project being "already much better than I expected" with the promise of "details soon" all but confirms this thing is happening.
While we're sort of on the topic of Ride, let's take a moment to look at the above promotional image. A globe? Really? These two must do a lot of exploring on the side. There's also the lack of an actual console, and the dude on the beanbag looks to be more active than the guy playing the game.
This really is the best promo image ever.

CONFIRMED.
Want a console in the ad?
TONY HAWK RiDE PLAYS ON AIR. SCREW YOUR CONSOLES.
...I honestly wouldn't be suprised if Acti launch a "miniconsole" with it to be honest, bypassing consoles completely. Just to fleece you that extra money.
it's the new peripheral for their upcoming title Drunk Air Guitar Hero, where any ridiculous thing can be pretended to be a guitar.
sry
If that's the kind of ride you get, I'll buy 3.
- Working title: "Tony Hawk: Eat"
- Place your board on your lap or on a table and eat various meals off of it.
- Points are scored for not spilling any of your meal, or "comboing" your meal with a side dish and drink.
- Hardest difficulty: Eating tomato soup with chopsticks. EXTREME.
*lets one rip into the beanbag*
"Dude, this travel ironing board is a bitch to stay steady on!"
Oh well.
