Rumours of Tony Hawk's Adrenaline and Wii Balance Board compatibility have been doing the rounds for months. Back in June there was talk that the game would make use of "a new motion sensing board controller" but even then there was no real confirmation that it would be the Wiiboard.

Now the rumour mill has started again with recent comments from an Activision rep that "You're not going to be playing this game with a controller in your hands." Now this could mean any number of things and considering this will be a multi platform release I don't think Activision would make these kind of comments referring only to a Wii version.

So does this mean that they're actually developing Wiiboard-like peripherals for PS3/360 and will they even bother with a balance board compatible release for the Wii. I personally agree with the view on spong that Activision will offer both a Wii balance board compatible version and new peripheral based PS3/360 versions. Let's face it, Activision have got a lot of catching up to do to with this franchise in light of EA's Skate and Skate It titles. It's not such a far-fetched idea that they would also develop a Wii specific version. After all, Ubisoft did it with Shaun White Snowboarding and Shaun White Snowboarding: Road Trip for the Wii so we can only hope Wii users are not left out in the cold when Tony Hawk is finally released.
