Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD sells 120k copies in first week
Josh Tsui, president of developer Robomodo, told Gamasutra that day-over-day sales of the game are "staying very consistent" thanks to good word of mouth between Xbox 360 owners. "People are [also] more apt to try games that are smaller and downloadable," he suggested.
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD costs 1200 MS Points (£10.28) on XBLA. It's due for release on PS3 in August and PC later this year.

On day 1, I was able to get 500 on leaderboards. Now I get only like 5000. If I try hard, I know I can get really high up again. There are some glitchers and hackers that ruin it. I don't think in game cheats count towards your leaderboard.
Having only played THPS3, and every game between THUG2 and Proving Ground, I don't know how the true THPS1/2 engine feels as I only played THPS1 one time (a long a$s time ago too). If you keep grinding a rail or from rail to rail, you don't gain speed. You actually start to go slower. Or if you go at a slow speed and start grinding something, you don't gain speed, but just maintain your speed or get slower.
The engine feels like it can be smoother and it's a bit sluggish. Definitely takes getting used to. I think it's just a true THPS1/THPS2 engine.

I have to agree. A skating game would get kind of boring because you could just go do it in real life :D
