Activision price new Tony Hawk Ride video game and skate board

tony hawks controller for game£99.99 is the price of the new Tony Hawk title and accompanying skateboard for PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii and Xbox 360. Bearing in mind you can get a 'real' starter skateboard for around £20, that's a hefty premium to pay for a soft landing on the carpet. You'll also look seriously more cool with a genuine board under your arm, as opposed to a carrier bag containing a large cardboard box and plastic accessories.

The game is set to be unleashed on November 20th, just in time to make your Christmas list and will be offered with a 'regular' wireless board or a limited edition version, a black and red board bearing the logo of Mr Hawk. The latter only being available at Game stores. We're presuming this isn't going to be at a premium, but we wouldn't put anything past Activision right now. Is it any good? Well, the finished game hasn't yet been put through its paces by any reviewers of note. With the new version being such a radical departure from past efforts, you might want to wait until a few hands-on notices come through before splashing the cash. Unless you're a TH obsessive - in that case, get in!
