MCA skates on the moon in Activision's Tony Hawk's Proving Ground - Image 1


Who'd have thunk it? Adam Yauch a.k.a. MCA of the Beastie Boys will be showing off his mad skateboarding skills (at least virtually) in Activision's upcoming skater game, Tony Hawk's Proving Ground. He'll be one of the new faces that will grace the famous, if improbable, line up of bonus skaters for the game.

Included in this update is the complete soundtrack listing for Tony Hawk's Proving Ground, totalling a hefty 54 licensed songs all in all.

Activision also announced an added bonus for those getting the Xbox 360 version of the game. The game will include a five song demo of "Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock." While the demo will be available soon on the Xbox Live, this is definitely a freebie that will be hard to pass up on.

Developed by Neversoft, Tony Hawk's Proving Ground is scheduled for release during the last quarter of this year. It will be coming out for the Xbox 360, PS3, PS2, Nintendo DS and Wii.

 » Call for boycott of QJ.NET

Starting today, I'll stop reading QJ.NET because of the stupid new advertising scheme. The site already loads slowly enough; now, after loading halfway, it suddenly reloads to a fullpage ad with a 'Continue to QJ.NET' link in the upper right corner, which is plainly annoying and, considering the already mediocre server performance, a bitter joke.

From now on, whenever I'll see an ad reload like that, I'll just close the tab and will load ps3fanboy.com or whatever site that doesn't screw over its readers. I hope others do the same.

 » WTF?!

No skater boy by Avril Lavigne?!

He was a skater boy
She said "see ya later boy"
He wasn't good enough for her
She had a pretty face
But her head was up in space
She needed to come back down to earth

I would bone her.
