How EA could make Skate 4 a triumph

After Tony Hawk’s Pro glitch fest, gamers want Skate 4 more than ever: here’s what EA needs to include.

TLG19913872d ago

after THP5 has given people the hype for a skateboarding game all they really need to do is just release someone that you wont glitch and throw you miles when you try to do a simple ollie.

3-4-53871d ago

Skate 4 is needed.

The Tech is here to take Skate to another level and make it even more realistic, not sure why they don't do it.

Give us multiple cities EA.

iSuperSaiyanGod3871d ago

Multiple city's would be awesome or a tour type mode after you get signed

Black0ut3871d ago

Skate 4 is definitely needed. As TLG1991 pointed out, THPS5 has indeed given the skating genre a boost in interest and there is definitely more than a healthy market of fans out there.

I just bought Skate 2& Skate 3 on 360 while on sale and they're still bloody incredible games.

Time will tell but imo things are looking promising.

Let THPS be a prime example of what NOT to do in a skate game let alone any game. It's almost a good thing that it came out in order to bring up discussions for a decent skating game to be made!

I feel they're so pubescent at best. When I was a kid I liked them, I guess I was a part of the original tony hawk generation. But now in my late 20's with a wife and kid, I roll my eyes at these skateboarding games. I can never see myself playing one again. But snowboarding games, on the other hand, like SSX, I can still jam that all day long. I wish they'd bring those back.

iceman063871d ago

The thing about what you are saying is that, while YOU grew past them, doesn't mean that everybody who was part of that Tony Hawk generation has. That being said, I can't see it being on the same level as then sales-wise (as skating isn't as high profile as it once was in pop culture). It's trying to make a comeback. But, it's nowhere near where it once was.

There is STILL a market, as the new THPS has shown, for skating games. The question is whether that market is enough for a company to invest money in trying to reach it again? They did it with SSX to huge success. I'd say it's worth a gamble.

user99502793871d ago

make it. and make it more like the original SKATE. They really nailed the weightyness of riding in that game. Would love a new gen skate with all the balls and whistles.

DanielEndurance3871d ago

I believe it's "bells and whistles," but if you want balls that's cool bro.

Scatpants3871d ago

I would like the next Skate game to have huge balls.

boing13871d ago

I would love new Skate game. Still going back to Skate 2 from time to time.

DragoonsScaleLegends3871d ago

I only played Skate 3 and it was so much worse than Underground. There is no story mode and I couldn't play online because it required a online code that was supposed to come with it but for some reason didn't come with my brand new copy. It felt very bare-bones in my opinion with no real purpose other than random challenges that I could care less about. I don't know what Skate 1 and 2 are like but in my opionion Skate 3 is the worse Skateboarding game I've ever played and I've played THPS1-THAW.

boing13871d ago

Skate 3 was crap. Second one was the best IMO.

JoeReno3871d ago

Skate 1 & 2 were both fun. Never bothered with skate 3. I just had a feeling it was going to be crap

PS3Freak3871d ago

Skate 3 was not crap. It was still good, just not as good as the 2nd. Still the best skateboarding series ever.

lipton1013871d ago

Yeah, this game would be awesome in like 2004. I just don't see the average gamer over the age of 23 going for a game like this. Just seems so pubescent to me.

I'm sure R* knows the Nintendo Switch install base and probably dont really care to port over more R* games to the Nintendo Switch tho i gotta say playing GTA4 & RDR1 on the go on the Nintendo Switch would be dope

Knightofelemia1401d ago

I would buy Lollipop Chainsaw, Alice Madness Returns, Enslaved, Splatter House, Brutal Legends, Dante's Inferno, and Dead Space for sure if they were ported to the Switch.

InklingGirl1401d ago

Same, great group of titles.

Mobis-New-Nest1401d ago

Deus Ex Human Revolution would be a great title to The Holy Grail of All Consoles aka The Nintendo Switch*. Also Haze Remastered, Grand Theft Auto 4 and 5 Remastered, Silent Hill HD Collection, Max Payne 3 Remastered, Call of Duty World At War Remastered, The Orange Box Remastered, Halo Master Chief Collection, Left 4 Dead 1 and 2 Remastered, Metal Gear Solid 4 Remastered, Afro Samurai Remastered, Demons Souls Remastered, Xmen Destiny Remastered, Jack and Daxter Collection, Def Jam Icon Remake, Folklore Remastered, Spiderman Edge of Time Remastered, Persona 5 remastered, the list goes on. (*Best Selling Console of All Time)

MontyeKristo1401d ago (Edited 1401d ago )

Can we just get a Bully 2? 😒

iplay1up21401d ago

Seriously? Isn't it time Nintendo make a Switch successor? I mean they have the sales and money.

New Skate Game in Development Confirmed, Being Developed by New Studio

EA has confirmed that a new Skate game is in development by a newly formed studio named Full Circle.

SpeedDemon1930d ago

This was already confirmed, EA announced it at their last year's E3 event.

excaliburps1930d ago

The new news here is a new studio was formed for the game...

SpeedDemon1930d ago

Yes that part is new information.

"Remember EA’s Skate franchise? If you’re a fan of the franchise, you’ll be glad to know that EA has confirmed that a new Skate game is in development! This was confirmed today by EA"

If you read the article you would see that the author didn't know that the game had already been confirmed and your title here makes it appear that you might not have known either.

Michiel19891930d ago (Edited 1930d ago )

he said NEW news, pretty obvious he allready knew it was announced

edit: didnt see excali made the thread, thought it was about his comment my bad

boing11930d ago
