Skate 4

[lww]

Same. I don't think that we'd be able to get anyone else to do it, but surely we have enough people on this forum who are on the same page as us to start something ourselves.

For starters then, what game engines are out there that would be good for a next gen skate game?

[Antwan]

Current gen you mean?
I'm not sure on that one. I think they are still figuring things out.
I don't mean a kickstarter either, forget that completely.
I mean, if we as a community were to dream up a skate 4 scenario
What would that mean? Would it be story driven? Would it be a huge sandbox environment with no loading?
Sky's the limit. Here's a few contenders for developers.
They are all that came to mind for me.

2K Sports
Bandai Namco
Rockstar Games
Capcom

I know we've poked fun at rockstar games making a skate something but
What if they really did? Like a dramatic cut scene fucking sandbox story driven game?
It would give them reasons to think about architecture differently, sculpt a unique city.
Just shit like this! I would love to hear thoughts about these companies or any other potentials.
Think freely.

Hey Antwan, Rockstar made Thrasher. I know I'd be down for a next gen version.

I was corrected on this before, Rockstar didn't make thrasher, they published it. Z-Axis developed it

Thrasher and Grind Session miss them old time feelings

Well if rockstar published it someone should convince them to hire on a new team and publish another one haha.
Blackbox? Hmm hmm? Its a funny thought but they did say they got inspiration from skate.
I have no issue with any developer attempting a skateboarding simulation something.
So long as they do their research. Reboots of those old games would be interesting.
I've never played grind session or skate n destroy sadly.
Still looks like there's some nice ideas there.
It was pure tony hawk for me until og skate.
I want to get some old game systems again though so I'll keep an eye out for those.
I always wanted to try Dave Mirra when I was younger and had to settle for the Matt Hoffman demo.
I might've missed out on other games if I had those simulation titles though.
Considering how much time I've spent on skate haha.

z-axis developed it, and then became part of activision blizzard and changed their name to underground development and then went defunct in 2010. i dont know who holds rights to a game (devs, pubs, distributors or a combo move), but if z-axis had any, and activision acquired them with their acquisition of z-axis, then id say it's trapped in limbo never to be made again.


edit: and yeah emerica i loved that game. lake tahoe was my favorite but they were all good tracks. remember you could run over chickens and stuff?! hahaha
