"Almost every comment on EA's Instagram is "Skate 4""

[sad]

if they announced skate 4 at e3 i would probably shed a tear.

we all would

I just hope they bring some of the old team back if they're willing to come back. Their input and ability to get involved with the community would be invaluable.

Without Black Box i have feeling we'll get more of a Tony Hawk game then our beloved series.

exactly. thats why this spam bullshit doesn't even have me excited in the least. where were all these spammers when the skate games were being made? if they had better sales numbers they wouldnt have fired blackbox and we might have a skate 5 on ps4 and x1 right now. everybody on the Internet wants to pretend theyre all about skate just because its gone, when they probably never even played any of them.


edit: the ONLY way id even want skate 4 is if blackbox made it

I really did like what blackbox was doing and even when the game was completely unrealistic it still fed my need to skate.
Part of me does wonder what might've happened if someone else was driving though.
The blackbox team doesn't have any members as of now and before then it had less than when it was first put together.
A new team sounds the most likely to me if the series were to ever make a comeback.
Seeing how it's on EA and well, I could be wrong but don't picture them buddying up with who they already put out of jobs.

no shit. that's why fuck ea. if they DO put out a skate 4 (which i think is less likely than a new Thrasher coming out) it will be aimed at the tony hawk market because realistic skating games don't sell well enough to put money and resources into. why would they bother when they can churn out another game with easy controls that people already know how to play and a game framework that's based on the standard accruing of points? people need to be rewarded with something and pulling off nice tricks doesn't satisfy that need for most people, and the harder it is to earn retarded amounts of points, through an exploitable game mechanic or just a formulaic strategy of play, the less people like the game.

exactly this !!!! most of the skate community still refuses to buy the dlc even today . people act like ea skate is a bigger cash cow than call of duty , but skate 3 sold really poorly at his prime . and most of the kids who want skate 4 now is because of the LAME lets play hype and mainly want to play hall of meat .. but i would say blackbox is not the only company who is able to make a proper skate game . but it would take years for them to get to the point where blackbox stoped ..
