Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD Will Receive DLC Stages From Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3

It's official. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD will be a content platform, as opposed to a stand-alone downloadable release. What that means is that we can look forward to downloadable content from series releases other than the first two Tony Hawk's Pro Skater games, which the core game's stages have been culled from. This ties in to what the iconic and titular skater had envisioned for the next game to bear his name, and it makes me even more excited for what is to come.

It’s official. Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD will be a content platform, as opposed to a stand-alone downloadable release. What that means is that we can look forward to downloadable content from series releases other than the first two Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater games, which the core game’s stages have been culled from. This ties in to what the iconic and titular skater had envisioned for the next game to bear his name, and it makes me even more excited for what is to come.

Today, Activision officially revealed that the first set of downloadable content for this arcade skateboarding revamp will come from Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3, which was an amazing game, much like its predecessors. Fans can vote on which of its stages they’d like to see, by going to the game’s official Facebook page.

My votes went to Canada and Cruise Ship. Do you agree with those picks? Let me know by visiting our comments section below this article.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD will ollie onto XBLA and PSN this summer for approximately $15. An exact date has not been revealed, although Tony Hawk seems to think his game will be released sometime next month.

FIRST TONY HAWK’S PRO SKATER HD DLC WILL BE LEVELS FROM THPS3

Activision Gathering Fan Feedback Now to Determine Final Content

After constant prodding and heartfelt pleading from fans, Activision has confirmed today that Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD will get downloadable content. Going even further, it has been officially stated that first batch will include multiple levels from Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 – perhaps the most critically acclaimed game in the whole franchise. Ratcheting things up even further is the fact that the exact levels haven’t been decided yet, and Activision, Robomodo, and Tony Hawk himself want to hear from the fans to determine the final content of the DLC.

Hardcore fans may remember that Tony Hawk went on Twitter last summer to ask his fans their favorite THPS 1+2 levels, and that feedback played a role in the levels chosen for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD. It wasn’t an exact science – Tony still pushed to get Phoenix Downhill in there despite the fact it didn’t top the list – but other levels like Marseilles and School 2 made the cut because of the fans.

For the DLC, feedback on what THPS3 levels to include is being gathered via the game’s official Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/TonyHawksProSkaterHD). There is a post there now on the topic, so fans should Like the page then post their detailed thoughts in the Comments section. Activision, Robomodo, and Tony Hawk will scour every post and begin the hearty debates – but the Birdman himself will make the final call on the levels included.

Don’t forget folks, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD will be available to download on Xbox LIVE and PlayStation Network this Summer for about $15. An exact release date has yet to be confirmed. The DLC will be out after the game’s release, and pricing is to be determined. Keep an eye out for updates on Twitter @TonyHawksPSHD.
