While you may be getting tired of guitar and drum peripherals, Activision has yet another unique toy for you to add to your collection. Personally, as long as it doesn’t have a strum bar or five rainbowtastic buttons I’m all for trying new things. I desperately want Tony Hawk: RIDE to be good (although THUG is still going to be hard to top), and if this new trailer is any indication, the skateboard controller may just have what it takes to deliver a fun, as-close-to-authentic-as-a-piece-of-plastic-can-get skating experience. Check it out, drop your thoughts, and come back for our review on or around the game’s November 17th release!

Check it out, get the game, and we’ll see you all online soon!

Colin McRae may be gone, but Codemasters fully intends on continuing to honor his legacy by making the best damn rally games ever.
