Tony Hawk's Motion Review (DS)

The high-flying skateboarder hits an all-time low with this motion-sensitive ride through dullsville.

by Robert Workman on Tuesday, December 16, 2008

In Tony Hawk's Motion for the Nintendo DS, you choose from four locations (Burlington, Dubai, Zermatt and Tokyo) and complete 20 challenges by physically tilting the system. Although it's a novel approach to skateboarding video games, the busted controls, two hours of (very) limited gameplay and lack of licensed songs make Activision's extreme sports game destined for the bargain bin. Not even a bonus game, the paint-by-numbers Hue Pixel Painter, can save this mess. Avoid this Motion sickness at all costs.

    i agree dalefan88n3. I have a PSP and LOVE IT more than my PS2 or my friend's DS (which sucks). Yeah, this game looks like something that should have come out on the original gameboy. If that.
