There's been some debate about the source code comment. I meant to say that the assets and maps were re-used, not the 'engine' in particular. Here are some links showing that Robomodo used Neversoft's code:

http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/01/19/tony-hawks-pro-skater-hd-aims-to-re-school-you : "Developer Robomodo took Neversoft's original code to start this project, so the foundation is solid. "

https://www.destructoid.com/preview-5-things-to-know-about-tony-hawk-s-pro-skater-hd-220451.phtml : "...developer Robomodo has acquired the original source code from Neversoft for their recreation. Thanks to that, every level should be 100 percent faithful..."



This game is shockingly bad. Before I played it the first time, I thought all the bad reviews were just from people used to Skate who didn't like the original THPS games. But it's actually much worse.

I can't exactly say it's the worst in the series with games like Ride and Shred out there (and yes, I bought those when they came out), but it's just completely unnecessary when the originals are still so much better.

Here's my review of THUG Pro, a much better 'remaster' of the series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFkTkOQVvyo
