It’s time to be a fan of skateboarding video video games, between Activision’s remakes fo Tony Hawk’s Professional Skater 3 + 4 out now, plus EA’s long-awaited reboot of Skate (Sorry, “skate.”) arriving someday within the foreseeable future. Nick had an opportunity to spend just a few hours within the open world, and whereas the free-to-play live-service facet is rubbing plenty of followers the incorrect method, and the method to monetization continues to be largely underneath wraps, it sounds prefer it’s a enjoyable sufficient time. In the meantime, THPS3+4 encompasses a cheeky little jab at Guitar Hero, with an easter egg that includes a familiar-looking rhythm recreation peripheral sitting in a rubbish can. Some individuals assume it’s humorous, whereas others (like Activision) are much less thrilled. In different information, Closing Fantasy’s Naoki Yoshida affords a tidbit of perception on the way forward for the sequence’ fight folliowing the success of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Lastly, we wax nostalgic about some outdated online game developer logos from the traditional previous.
