Tony Hawk coming to iPhone soon

My Tony Hawk knowledge is far from complete, but that level certainly does look like the hangar level from Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, which was my personal favorite way back on the Playstation 1 (I also played it quite a bit on the PC back in the day). Of course, just because the aforementioned level is in there, that doesn't mean that it's the full Pro Skater 2 (the iPhone version could be a mixup of levels from the previous skating games). However, given the font, and the d-pad and button layout, it does seem that we'll be seeing some old school TH action (as opposed to the recent Tony Hawk Ride debacle). We'll keep an eye on the store and let you know if and when we see something.

Well, I can see it from a business standpoint, but as a consumer it would be far more interesting to me to see a game like this that takes advantage of the iPhone/iPod touch's capabilities. Seems to me that a game about skateboarding, which takes balance, is well suited to use the accelerometer.

Anyways... I'm excited. Not a huge fan of the Tony Hawk series, but if this has any sort of multiplayer, I'll be picking it up.
THPS 4 would be a lot better than 2. If I'd wanted to play THPS2 i'd have kept my ngage.
