I think they are taking the "let's go back to what worked" a little too literal. But I'll probably buy it anyway :)

thebudgetgamer4523d ago

Was hoping for THPS4 but I'll happily take this,

Also I believe extreme scoring combos it what hurt the franchise the most for me.

TopDudeMan4522d ago

I had THPS2 for the iphone and it didn't control well at all. I'll keep an eye on this. I haven't played a tony hawk game since project 8, so it'll be interesting to see how this turns out.

nevin14522d ago

Just a little an HD version of THP1 and 2?

it better not be $60.

m234522d ago

Look, to be honest the FTC should just stop.

MS has A/B and nothing has really changed yet...if you are worried about 5-10 years from now...just drop it cause the future is unpredictable.

Take this week's news, that 4 Xbox exclusive are going Multiplatform.

Yeah man I think Microsoft here getting to probe is kinda wrong unless you only have accessed to necessary information not complete access imo.

Abriael82d ago

Obviously they aren't giving them the password to Sony's computers and telling them "help yourself."

Eonjay81d ago

"Microsoft allowed to probe Sony and Ubisoft"

Sounds hot...

ApocalypseShadow82d ago (Edited 82d ago )

Maybe Microsoft should also talk and get help from their "congressional influencers" at The Capital. They had plenty to say on the matter before the acquisition. They are mighty quiet after the purchase went through. Almost as if they had a stake in the matter.

Abriael82d ago

Could you perhaps explain how this is related? I'm honestly curious since you seem to bring it up rather often.

He is pointing out how corrupt MS is, and how money talks. I think.

KwietStorm_BLM81d ago

I would say read between the lines but it's pretty damn clear as it is.

Bathyj82d ago

You should be careful upsetting Sony too much Microsoft.
You might need them to sell your subpar games soon.

TornRaptor82d ago

The games will become the best things ever all of a sudden.

Bathyj82d ago

Yeah I really doubt that.
I'm struggling to think of one I really cared about missing.

Hofstaderman82d ago

Bwhahahaha. Ain't that the truth.

Mr_cheese81d ago

The only exclusive im personally interested in from Microsoft is Elderscrolls and that's not even got s release date.

Everything else is genuinely of none interest.

OtterX82d ago

Microsoft never waits for the probing to be consensual.

derek82d ago

This isn't a major victory. They're essentially being allowed to call witnesses in regards to agreements they reached with Sony and Ubisoft which was initially blocked because Microsoft didn't make the request through the proper channels. This case is dead, there is no way the ftc will be allowed to unwind this acquisition.

Sephiroushin82d ago

they probably know case is death but want some proof to sue them for a few millions regarding other stuff, the ftc loves to sue everyone, be sure that as soon as all this end they will just go sue MS and end in a settlement.
