“I wish there was some way to bring it back. “Like, ‘What would you do with the THPS title?’ And they didn’t like anything they heard, and then that was it.” “The truth of it is that were trying to find somebody to do 3 + 4 but they just didn’t really trust anyone the way they did Vicarious, so they took other pitches from other studios,” said Hawk. That said, players can still enjoy the nostalgic romp that is Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2.According to Hawk, Activision was ultimately unimpressed with the proposals it received for further THPS games, so the project went no further.
