Quick Look: Tony Hawk: RIDE

OH MAN SO STOKED FOR THIS QUICKLOOK TONY HAWK STYLE, YEAH MAAAAN!

Dude! Sick board!

IT'S LIKE TONY HAWK TUESDAY BUT NOW ON A THURSDAY.  WAAAAOAOOAOAH BRO.

OMG Buffer FASTER You Crappy INternet!!!
 
BEST ENDING EVER!!!!!

awesome.

Vinny has serious video editing skillz.

YESSSSSSSSSS
 
the end of this quick look is epic!!

You have made my day!

Woohoo! Been waiting for this one!

This might take the throne as the best quick look ever based entirely on the intro alone.

Awesome.  Been waiting for this.
 
Great ending.  Game looks significantly less great.  Shame.  I was hoping for more from Tony Hawk RIDE.

I'm at the beginning and there's a Yeah Yeah Yeahs song playing. I approve of this game's soundtrack.

Just got done with the beginning and I already know this is going to be epic.

AND NOW IT'S A MODEST MOUSE SONG 
 
DUDE THIS SOUNDTRACK IS KICKASS

kicking shoes Jeff!
 
And man, that board, those moves, complete 1:1!

OH DIP SON TONY HAWK TUESDAY CONTINUES UNABAITED TIWTTER THIS SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIAGATRRAGRGAA!!!

Breakfast and quick looks FTW.

love skating games, even all the broken ass top skater arcade machines of my youth. have no interest in playing this

this website gave Tony Hawk Ride 10 times more exposure than Activision themselves >_> Great quicklook as always guys

What? Why do you need an actual controller? Aren't there buttons on the side of the board?

owww yeah ! :D:D god I have <3 giantbomb

Haha awesome intro!

Looked absolutely disgusting, until you cranked up the difficulty and it became an actual game.

This game seems like it'd be really fun until you actually worked out what the hell you were doing.

Quick Look intros are the NEW BEST THING.
 
Polo, Brad, Polo.

Great Skate Coaster! haha. 
 
This looks so horrible, which always makes for the best videos!

This game looks pretty ... bad.
 
EDIT: That's the most awesome ending ever!

Handplant... HANDPLANT!
 
Does anyone know the name of the song playing near the end? You can hear it around the 24:35-24:55 mark.

Sweet finish guys. Almost pissed myself at the Metroid Prime insert.

DUDE T-MOBILE!  AWESOME.  SHIT EVERY GAME SHOULD HAVE MENUS ON A BRANDED CELL PHONE, THAT WOULD BE FUCKIN RAD!

Awesomeness. You guys, I mean. Certainly not the game. Bleh.

The game looks terrible.

Two things:
 
There seems to be a lot of controller lag between your action and what happens on screen.
 
This still seems like it would be an amazing game for people who love real skateboarding (those people still living in the 90s).
 
Edit: Okay, a couple more...
 
In-game advertising blows, but that's a discussion for another time (though, seriously, when did it become okay to accept blatant advertising in a game you already paid for?)
 Not being able to steer and do what you want makes it a whooooooole lot less appealing in a "what the fuck were they thinking?" way.

EPIC ENDING

Predictably awesome Quick Look, but I'm not buying this game until they let you do actual flip tricks with the board in "hardcore" mode. At the very least some vanilla kickflips and heelflips. 
 
Don't get me wrong, this still looks really, really cool, but maybe next year they'll have a stronger board with more functionality and then things can get really interesting.

lmao the ending

You should put up the raw green-screen footage for a QOTW.

haha brilliant ending!!!

Can we possibly get a 2nd quick look after Jeff's gotten used to the controls and thus show it on Hardcore or something? See how it is after the 'introduction'.

hahahaha Best open and close of a Quick Look EVER!!!!

Man, Tony Hawk is getting right up there with Sonic for series that have been completely run into the ground.  2, 3 and 4 were amazing, THUG 1 and 2 were okay, and since then, nothing has been remotely worth my time and money.

Okay, ending was even better then the beginning.  Video looks more fun then the game.

POLO

No back to the future clip at the end, so disappointed.

.......i think i just saw the greatest introduction ever .....and best ending
 
I'm seeing lots on input lag and some random jumps and kicks that Jeff isnt trying to do. And the on-screen animation is jerky and awkward to look at. 
 
 I can see why X-Play gave it 1/5. I'm predicting 2/5 or less from Jeff later.
