"Tony Hawks' Move and Groove: Activision has itself declared the Tony Hawks franchise needs to be freshened up, especially in the face of new competition from EA's Skate series, and what better way to do it than by making use of the latest craze? The Balance Board seems an ideal device for mimicking a real skateboard, with gamers being able to swerve round corners by simply leaning to either side, flip on the back wheels only by rocking backwards or even pick up speed by tilting forwards and crouching or maybe even moving your foot in the same way as on a skateboard, stroking it against the board almost as if pushing against the ground in real life to go faster. As for performing the variety of stunts, these could all be related to other types of movement combinations, with an example being rotating your hips to spin the board round or quickly stepping to the front of the board, then the back to kick skateboard into a vertical spin. No doubt this would be the most realistically tiring entry into the series so far."
