Tony Hawk's Proving Ground demo to hit Xbox Live tomorrow

does the demo of guitar hero 3 come with some sort of demo guitar?

Does the demo guitar come with some sort of Rock Band demo?

Is that a ps2 demo trailer?

Does it come with a demo of the GH3 demo?

Does the THPG demo come with Activision peeing in your shoes because you're stupid enough to buy the same game 9 times?

thank god for skate

please tony hawk games... die...

I don't think it will, but whatever. I'm excited for both.

The Video actually looks pretty shitty.
I´m a Tony Hawk fan right from the first one on the psx but the game just has become boring. I think Skate will be a lot better.

I stopped caring about these games after the 2nd one. Bring back Thrasher now there is a game time forgot.

tony your time has passed

I think it's appropriate that it's named Proving Ground. Neversoft has a whole damn lot to prove. Prove that they're not complete franchise milking assholes. Then again, EA better be gentle with Skate and treat 'er right. She's a good one.

THPS has been done to death. I actually thought the new THPS was going the Skate route, giving it a bit more of a realistic edge, but alas it's still the same old crap we've been doing since the first game, over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.

the new trailer for this looks so bad.

OMFG ITS JOHN CENA SKATING

You can manual in Skate. You just gotta slightly pull back or push forward on the right stick. You can do vert tricks as well, the two triggers are your left and right hands for grabs. The only things you can't really do are handplant-like tricks, no complies, and impossibles from what I know so far.

@ Steel Squirrel

Sorry for the confusion but I was tryin to say manual tricks(Half Cabs, Primos, casper, ect.) And I kno there is somewhat vert like in the demo if you go in that semi pool thing, but its sketchy still. Im pretty sure I read somewhere that there are no halfpipes in the game, although there is a megaramp and im excited for that! Also I forgot to add, I hate the other skaters AI cus you could be in a string of tricks and they just skate into you and it always makes you fall. O yea and one more thing I hate that screen it goes to when you fall

Skate will not "demolish" the Tony Hawk game. At all. Much like Rock Band will not "demolish" Guitar Hero III. Know why? They've been around. You can't just be the new guy on them hard streets and expect to get all the respect. You can from the hardcore, but not every-uno. You have to do some shit you'll regret.

Tony Hawk doesn't look shitty, either, it just looks...similar to every other one I've played. Sadly though, Tony Hawk is that one game I always buy, play for like one or two months and then resell it. I like 'em. That's my bag.

GO SKATE GO SKATE, FAIL THPS

@Badinc

Dood, I am not trying to troll bait flame you here but.... Did you play the demo? Yes there are manuals. Yes there are half pipes. As a matter of fact, if you played the demo, take a look outside the fence that keeps you from the uber-goodness that lies beyond and you might notice a GIANT FRIGGIN CONCRETE HALFPIPE that made me have to change my shorts. I spent an hour trying to escape my confines after I saw that. I also doubt that we have been exposed to all the tricks you are capable of doing by playing the demo. I am not sure about this but I am willing to bet there are tricks you have to learn first before they are useable.

I won't hide it, I am quite fond of this game and cant wait for it. My favorite thing is that you cant just rub against a curb/rail, push Y and VIOLA! your a grinding fool. You need speed and timing to hit those tricks.
SKATE is to THPS what Dirt or Forza 2 is to Mariokart.

ok, whatever. I aint gonna argue bout it no more. Its way more realistic than TH IMHO. What I wann know is, Where the hell is this demo? Story is dated the 9th. Today is the 10th. Demo aint there. WTF???
