In the interview, Jewett confirms that Neversoft has moved on from the skateboarding genre that it made famous. Here's the relevant portion:
Neversoft plans to release more sequels to the "Guitar Hero" series — including the much-ballyhooed "Guitar Hero: Metallica" set for release during the first quarter of this year — but the company has let the Tony Hawk series go to another developer.
"It's probably best for the franchise ... it's time for someone else to add fresh ideas to it," Jewett said.
This isn't a huge surprise, but I'm pretty sure this is the first public admission that the company has moved on and left Tony Hawk to someone else. That someone else, if you remember the rumor we discussed on the podcast last summer, is likely to be Chicago-based Robomodo, a new developer headed by former EA Chicago and Studio Gigante heads. Officially, all Robomodo has said is that they exist, and that they're working on "a high-profile extreme sports title for Activision Blizzard."
