Tony Hawk: Ride is coming with an enormous plastic skateboard peripheral. If you were worried that would make it cost a bit more, you should know that it might make it cost a lot more.

The game is now available for preorder on GameStop's website, and while none of this information is 100% confirmed (including that release date), GameStop is rarely, if ever, wrong about a game's price.

Though at $120, we kinda wish they were.

lol.

Epic uber bomb confirmed.

But the board isn't just a piece of plastic. From what I gather it essentially is a Wii remote with WM+ (or a six axis controller) embedded inside a piece of plastic.

But yea, way too much money for most people. I like skating games, but not that much.

They better make a Wii Fit board version. Wii owners will not buy this.

Tony Hawk: Ride is doomed

I was done with Tony Hawk after 3 and at that price, I don't think I'm coming back.

Woah! That is ridiculous, of course us Brits will have to pay more. I assume they must take a massive margin at that price, because it is going to hamper sales massively
