Props to them for finally changing up this ****.
But too much change.

Ouch.

And I still think 50 bucks is a lot for a game B |

So what are they changing and why is it 120 buck??? I didn't see anything in the artical about anything special.

The only way to play the game is on the new motion sensing skateboard.

I have mixed feelings but I don't forsee the fat a55es that have played the previous installments getting of those fat a55es and "ride"-ing a fake board anywhere. And anyone who has the ability to stand on a board without falling is probably already outside skateboarding.

Would you just slide your foot along the ground to move? 'cos i can see that being a slight problem on some floors... It's a way new way of learning how to skateboard! without the risk of smashing your face into concrete. Though the probability of it responding like a normal board ain't that high.
I want it but i don't have the money and even if i did, very unlikely i'd spend that much on it. See if it's rentable or nick it from a mate.

So the video says it responds like a real skateboard. it might do, but tbh i'm not going to believe an add for the game - ever heard a fish seller shouting "rotten fish"? It's probably quite similar but i really, really, don't think it's going to be completely realisitic - though i'd be happy if proved wrong.

But GRRR. It's selling at £100 over here. Which (atm) is $165. That's an extra $45 (£27) for us. Not too happy about that at all. I know games are more expensive over here, but that's kinda ridiculous imo.
