Never change, GAF. Never change.
This thread just keeps on giving.
I'm sure it'll still be fun, even if it looks off.
Same.

There is no way the game can provide me with as much entertainment as this thread.
Tony hawk as a brand was already dead. They are just digging up the corpse and pissing on it at this point.

Only 138 HP that should be more
Everytime the thread hops back onto the first page, I have to check again, and everytime I do I have to laugh
So in my eyes Tonky Hawks Pro Skater 5 is great entertainment

The game actually isn't cel-shaded (at least it doesn't look like it). Cel-shading refers to flat shading with sharp "steps" of light and shadow rather than a smooth transition between them. It can be outlined or not, but the outlining itself isn't cel-shading. This just has poor outlined character models with poor textures and poor lighting.

I mean, obviously this is nowhere near the gorgeous art of Jet Set Radio or XIII, but that's obvious because this is just a rush job by Activision and Robomodo to cover up the shitty visuals.

Yeah, it doesn;y have banded shadows like cell animation. But there does seem to be some sort of high contract/ posterization filter applied to the models to give them a weird paper cutout look.

They've always looked like that. Even in the first batch of shots the characters didn't look like they were part of the same environment

I dunno, maybe it is just the lighting, but the textures look altered to me.
Here's a screengrab from an older version of the game:
It is still the same model. But the pant texture looks different and the skin tones have been pumped up to show more red and yellow pigment. It looks like they turned up the contrast on the textures to me and sharpened up the blacks.
I'm not going to split too many hairs though. The game still looks pretty bad either way.
Looks like they were trying to do what Gearbox did with Borderlands. That looked terrible too so it's not a big surprise.

Add an oldschool hud and it suddenly doesn't look thát bad anymore...
It looks a bit better, I'll take any HUD over the current one.
There was a good video on youtube where someone did a mockup HUD for the game that looks better than the current one in-game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WR903aGKHII

Honestly no clue. I think they want to have it like the older games but its way faster. To be fair, it's not as floaty as THPS HD was.

Oh my god, you beautiful bastards! I'm literally crying with laughter. I fucking love these topics on Gaf so much.
Seriously though; EA fucked Skate so thoroughly and so quickly. They should make a new one and make PewDiePie a playable character. That would probably sell a shit load of copies, and as long as they kept the gameplay intact most original series fans wouldn't really mind if it meant a new Skate.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Hahahahaha
My sides...
After the game releases, and the dust settles, at least this thread will have been worth all the heartache.

Nights87 you are a NeoGAF hero as far as I'm concerned.
Rest
All these years later I still chuckle at what a fucking moron that guy is.
I'm liking the colors in this level.
I recently bought both Thrasher: Skate and Destroy and the first Grind Session. Neither one was really good I'm sad to say. But maybe if they were updated they could be.

This one really got me.

I feel like you are all being bullies, I hope the developers don't find this thread... LOL never change GAF.
They probably have found it and are laughing their asses off, too.

Game looks better in motion than it used to

That actually does look pretty good. The E3 footage looked really sloppy and the controls seemed really jerky.
I'm kinda sold on the game after watching that. The art style looks fine in motion.

Looks fine! Sold!
(Weird interview though, between the awkward questioning and the phony PR nostalgia speak)
Looks nice. Snapping to a grind is still kind of awkward, but it's not too bad besides that.
But jeeze, I wish the levels had some ambiance. They feel so sterile and empty.

The black outlines really aren't nearly as noticeable. They should've just released footage rather screenshots. The screenshots are terrible while it looks fine in motion.
