Tony Hawk Pro Skater 5 is due out this year

We haven't seen a decent Tony Hawk Pro Skater game since, well, forever. Tony Hawk was at E3 this year with some gameplay footage of the upcoming Tony Hawk Pro Skater 5, which looks like it could go back to the days of old with its soundtrack, gameplay and most impressive graphics. This version of Tony Hawk Pro Skater is being made by Robomodo, who also made two previous entries in the series: Tony Hawk: Ride and Tony Hawk: Shred. Neither of these games were received well, so lets hope a return to the Pro Skater name will see a better outcome.

That didnt last too long though as the skating legend revealed via twitter yesterday that te game will release first on PS4 and Xbox One on the 29th of September this year, while the PS3 and 360 versions would come later.

#THPS5 release date is Sep 29 for PS4 & Xbox One. There, I said it. (PS3 & 360 later this year)

This E3 has been overflowing with nostalgia for me, with all of these games that made my childhood being remade for me to enjoy as an adult. I hope Tony Hawk Pro Skater 5 can live up to those memories.
