Fuck man! We finally got a great Tony Hawk game again (even though it's a remake...) and now the franchise is probably fucking dead again

Just kill me >_>

I like how major corporations are immune to any consequence for their abuses

Blizzard should have been sued into the dirt years ago

Tony Hawk 1+2 was fun. Not enough to bring the series back though.

They had a good run I like to think.

It sucks ass, but there's still Toys for Bob and Beenox, who both have experience with TH games (Beenox even helped with 1+2).

Me too. Guess that's down the drain.

THUG2 remake when

I'm down for it. It was the peak of the series gameplay wise.

So, looking into this a bit more, it seems Activision has now installed Jen Oneal (an old school "company woman") as the executive vice president of development at Blizzard, reporting directly to J Allen Brack.

It seems to me this is Activision pulling the trigger and "going in there" to start the final stages of killing Blizzard off.

But Crash 4 was good though.
