    haha.. I cant even remember how I felt about the early tony hawk games.
    There was no comparison and I was about eight years old when pro skater dropped.
    The old days had a lot going for them.
    It wasn't money out of my pocket, every game was great back then and I always played with friends.

    yeah i read the link earlier. the question is Tony goin around doin publicity and crap trying to say its a good game and has shit never seen before (dont remember the exact hype terms he used). Contracts must be strict as hell, or he just doesn't give a shit about quality, if he was pushing this crap that hard.

    I imagine hes at least played an early build..
    He could also have lower standards than gamers.
    We immediately say to ourselves, is this worth the price?
    While he may be more along the lines of..
    Do I find this fun, is skateboarding involved?
    If so, No more no less. No thought about what's wrong with it.

    but wouldnt he notice it isnt as stable as the first game that came out over 15 years ago? not to mention all the glitchy fuckups that he couldnt have missed unless he only played for a few seconds.


    edit: if it really is a "no more, no less" whatever that means, then he's a piece of shit that doesn't give a shit about quality control or customer satisfaction. he should go back to delivering pizza hut pies.

    if i was famous and had a biopic made about me, and hired the producers and director of Singled Out to make it, it would be my fault it sucked

    Not asking you to accept it as a high quality product Emmit.
    More like, putting yourself in his situation.
    Involved in skateboarding but not so much in games.
    Saying, do the best you can and I'll love it unconditionally.
    Again, Tony's mindset as I've observed it, could be wrong but it sounds right.. To me.

    what if blackbox told Variflex to make some boards to include with Skate. special editions saying, "do the best you can and ill love it unconditionally?"

    that would show that they didn't really care about the finished product.

    you can make any excuse you want for Tony but it's obvious he doesn't give a shit about the quality of the game with his name on it.
