New developer also leaked...

As we reported last December, it appears that the add-on for the new Tony Hawk skateboarding game will be showing its plastic face.

Back in December, we quoted an Activision spokesman saying of a new Hawk video game, "You’re not going to be playing this game with a controller in your hands."

Now, according to Variety, "two sources who have seen the game first hand have confirmed that it will indeed eschew controllers and rely on a board-like peripheral."

The sources also say that "Robomodo, formed primarily by former EA Chicago employees, is making the game."

Well, it seems to us that Activision and Robomondo have a battle on their hands to dent Skate and Skate 2 in the skateboarding states at the moment.

Funny how everyone thinks Skate took over. If you actually look at sales you'll see that overall Tony's last game STILL outsold Skate. Skate was on limited platforms. It did well where it was available, but Tony still outsold EA.
