Tony Hawk: Shred
About the Game
Tony Hawk: Shred is the eleventh main game in the skateboarding series and it is the successor to Tony Hawk: Ride that introduced motion controls as the main means to control the skateboard. Next to skateboarding Shred introduces a snowboarding element to the series with slope runs, big air and a half pipe. It also adds "Avatar" and "Mii" support on the Xbox 360 and Wii versions, respectively. Players use a "skateboard" controller to virtually ride, execute tricks, rack up points and bonuses in a physically interactive virtual environment.
Gameplay & Core Systems
Players can interact with the environments alone, or choose multiplayer modes. The three main control modes have been extended with a fourth one, Casual Plus, as a mix of the on-rails mode with the self-correcting one to create a bordered path that allows for mistakes.
Standout Features
- New Orleans: The different locations include New Orleans, Morocco, Greece, Hawaii, Melbourne, and the fictitious Huck Jam Park, and all courses have been turned into downhill-type events.
Presentation & Atmosphere
The visuals have been turned into full cel-shaded design compared to the previous title, except for the Wii version that has a more realistic style.
Display support includes HDTV 720p. Audio support includes Dolby Digital.
