Tony Hawk ‘Revert Pack’ DLC out now for PSN, XBLA, Steam soon

Tony Hawk 'Revert Pack' DLC out now for PSN, XBLA, Steam soon

Longer combos (and subsequently, higher scores and bigger disappointments) are likely taking place on a virtual skate-park near you, as Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD‘s Revert Pack has successfully landed all four of its polymer wheels on XBLA and PSN.

PC proponents of preposterous push-board performances can expect the DLC to hit Steam “within a couple days,” an Activision representative has informed us. Right now though, console kickers can get the download’s three Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 levels for 400 MS Points/$ 4.99. All users, however, will receive the eponymous “revert” ability as a free system update, which allows for combo continuation by linking ground and vertical tricks.

Sega fighters this week on Xbox Live, Dragonborn, Tony Hawk DLC next week

Xbox Live’s Major Nelson has released the list of content coming to Xbox Live over the next few weeks. It all kicks off today with a trip of Sega fighters launching on Xbox Live Arcade: Virtua Fighter 2, Sonic the Fighters and Fighting Vipers. You can take your pick at 400 MS Points ($ 5) each, half the initial asking price.

Guardians of Middle Earth will make its trek to Xbox Live Arcade on December 5. The Revert DLC for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD also drops in on December 5 for 400 MS Points ($ 5). Finally, that week will also see the debut of Skyrim’s second DLC pack on Xbox Live, the 1600 MS Point ($ 20) Dragonborn expansion on December 4.

On the savings front, this week’s Deal of the Week revolves around GTA IV – the vanilla game starring cousin Niko is available through Games on Demand (price varies by region) with the Lost and Damned and Ballad of Gay Tony expansions being offered until December 3 for 400 MS Points and 800 MS Points each, respectively. Next week, from December 4 to the 10th, Deadliest Warrior and all of its DLC will be discounted.

Additional Kinect-focused deals are available through Xbox Live’s Sales & Specials app – this week Burnout Crash is on sale for 400 MS Points ($ 5) with next week’s deals focusing on Ubisoft’s stable of Kinect games.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD ‘Revert’ DLC drops Dec. 4, everyone gets revert ability for free

On December 4, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD will add three levels from Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 as premium DLC: Los Angeles, Airport and Canada. Along with these levels, the revert ability from THPS 3 will be included in the 400 MS Point ($ 4.99) DLC package.

However, the revert was previously localized to those three DLC levels only, and now Activision says all Tony Hawk HD players will receive a free update adding revert to the original levels. So if you want the three additional levels, you can snag them on December 4 for half a sawbuck or you can take the free update and up your high scores on the original lineup pulled from the first two Tony Hawk games. Or you can do both. Really it’s entirely up to you.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD DLC reverts into an early Dec. release window

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD DLC reverts into an early Dec release window

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD‘s “Revert Pack” DLC has been pushed back until the first week of December, Activision has announced on the game’s Facebook page. Originally, the DLC pack containing select levels from Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 was slated to hit consoles in early November.

“It’s later than all of us hoped, and we’re sorry about that,” the update reads. When it does launch, however, the DLC will be available on 360, PS3 and PC, as the Steam version of the game is now available. If nothing else, the delay will at least allows more time for our shattered knee-caps to heal after trying to do some of this stuff in real life. Getting hit by a speeding golf cart can do a lot of damage, as it turns out.

Black Ops 2′s live-action TV ad is by Guy Ritchie, stars Tony Stark

This live-action trailer for Black Ops 2 is nothing if not fun. First up, you have Robert Downey Jr bringing a jet to a gunfight, and when we say Downey Jr we of course mean Tony Stark, all conceited and glib and impossible-to-dislike.

And if you’re going to do that, you may as well throw in a booming Zach Galfianakis (The Hangover), Kyle Myers AKA YouTube weapons dude FPSRussia, and among many other ridiculous things a horse. It supposedly ties in to the Nuketown 2025 multiplayer map which comes with pre-orders, but we reckon Ritchie just decided to have a laugh.
