May 14, 2007 - Today Activision announced the latest edition to the long-running Tony Hawk series, Tony Hawk's Proving Ground. The game will put more emphasis on developing the player's character and aims to give them the freedom to choose their own paths and style of skating.

Proving Ground will include a video editor complete with visual effects for creating what Activision calls "epic skate videos." Players can visit the online Skate Lounge to hang out with friends and customize the pad to their liking. While skating, the game will move from single-player to online seamlessly.

"This is the largest, deepest, and most compelling Tony Hawk game ever," said Joel Jewett, president of developer Neversoft. "Proving Ground will throw you so deep into the lifestyle of skateboarding that you won't be able to get out. Hands down, it's the most exciting Tony Hawk title yet."

Tony Hawk's Proving Ground is currently in development for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 2 & 3, Wii, and Nintendo DS, and is scheduled to ship this fall.

IGN: Tony Hawk Has Something to Prove

wait and see till this fall.. but I can't want to get EA SKATE for X360, probably PSP too.

Whoa. This is gonna be SICK. Why? THP8 had a pretty cool 'create your trick' thing, and I expect them to improve greatly on that aspect. Editing and making your own skate videos is going to be really cool.

wicked!!!
