Personally, I think the 5 refers to the amount of players on your team. It's a MOBA.

Tony Hawk 5, eh. It's about time, if you ask me.

Someones getting fired...

Poor bastard doesn't know the PR shit storm that's about to come down on him.

Ha, oh shit. I hope this is as good as Sonic the Hedgehog 4.

Tony Hawk sponsored by 5-Hour Energy confirmed.

Hahaha, that's friggin' perfect!

The game could be utter shit, but I just got $60 worth of entertainment from the title. That had better not be a working title.

I feel so bad for this guy. The mighty activision hammer is coming down on him right now.

I really hope its good. I loved those games back when I was a kid.

I dunno man, he's got some pretty baller tats. He will be running Activision within a year.

Aw yes the FIFTH TONY HAWK GAME EVER is finally coming

@gorillamopena: It's like how Sting came to the WWE and we ignored all the horrible shit in between that return.

Sorry.

Excited but all to prepared to be disappointed.

Shit I can't let myself get excited but I'm really excited.

Don't fuck it up Activision.

This makes as much sense as releasing a new Rock Band in 2015...

That's the best possible name for a new Tony Hawk game and gets me WAY more excited even tho I should very much temper my expectations

@beachthunder: I dunno. Seems well timed considering there's no direct competition and the genre's been without a title since skate. 3. OlliOlli's kinda a different thing.

I really hope that they put that half-pipe with all the tables in as a secret level.

A proper Tony Hawk game (ie, not Ride) will probably do reasonable numbers. I'll buy it for sure. I loved me some Tony Hawk Pro Skater.

Now EA just need to do Sk4te (that is what it'll be called) and all will be right with the world.

Unless Activision made their caterer sign an NDA, I would think he's in the clear.

If you're catering at an event for an unannounced, unreleased game, you signed an NDA. Games companies will have you sign an NDA to shake their hand.

I wonder who will develop it. Robomodo? They recently posted this on twitter.

Infinity Ward? Maybe we could get some hot Call of Duty x Tony Hawk Pro Skater crossbranding. Tony Hawk gets to shoot a gun!

While that's true, I have to wonder if this guy really did sign something before he took this picture. I'm guessing this was hours before the event, and someone stupidly left that screen on while things were being setup. I think someone either thought he already signed, or didn't think he needed to sign until the show was closer to starting. It's clear that someone screwed up, but I'm not certain it was the caterer.

Oops

For a moment I read this headline as "Tony Hawk on PS5 possibly leaked" which would be way crazier. Interesting to see who's developing it if it does come to fruition though.

What would they have to do to make Tony Hawk 5 a good game?

- I would want it to reflect THPS 1-3. No Open world, just individual contained levels. To make it more current they should create 15-20 of these levels with an upgrade system that would allow you to open up areas with new abilities.

A Hawkoidvania style game you say? Interesting....

@spaceinsomniac: Certainly a possibility.

Sounds a bit like 'seeing what you want to see'. It doesn't mention 'Pro Skater' anywhere. Tony Hawk probably has more going on that that 5 can refer to. I would mind a new entry though, that's for sure.

It looks like theres an M underneath WK. I wonder what that stands for.
