Without fail, with each passing instalment of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, developer Neversoft ups the bar and peers down watching the various copycats leaping this way and that in a vain attempt to reach it. Unfortunately for them though, the money-printing franchise faces stiffer competition than ever this year in the shape of Acclaim’s Aggressive Inline and BMX XXX, and THQ’s MX Superfly amongst others.
But Neversoft isn’t about to drag its heels suffering at the hands of feature creep in an attempt to usurp the usurpers. No. Instead, the veteran of three groundbreaking skating titles has applied the final touches to the fourth iteration in the series and shipped it off to manufacture. The game is due out on PlayStation 2, Cube, Xbox and PSX on November 22nd, alongside a third party GBA adaptation of the game.
Contrary to what the article says, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 should be set for an October 23rd U.S. release.
