They went stale.
Then Skate put the final nail in their coffin, took the skateboarding genre to a new level, and pretty much stole the market. Hopefully EA won't let Skate go stale, too early to say with that franchise.
Anywho, Activision will be bringing Tony Hawk's back with a focus on realism and whatnot, trying to take back the market Skate stole. It can only be a good thing this genre has two competitors locked horn to horn now, should prevent it from going stale like Tony Hawks.
Not a clue if Tony Hawks is coming back this year mind, I've got a list of 4 Activision projects yet to be officially announced due for a 2009 release...
