| | New Tony Hawk Game for 2015
At the annual Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nevada, pro skateboarder Tony Hawk announced that the newest game in his classic skateboarding game franchise will be released in 2015 for the PS4. The legendary pro skateboarder made the announcement during Sony's keynote speech at CES 2015 on Tuesday. Although announced during Sony's press conference, the new Tony Hawk game wasn't said to be PS4-exclusive. This is likely another attempt to attach the franchise to Playstation's name, similar to what they tried with Destiny, and other games. With the lackluster landings of the last few Tony Hawk games, this seems like a strange title for Sony to choose.

Electric vehicle startup Future Motion has launched its debut product: a self-balancing electric skateboard that lets you fly over pavement on only a single wheel using self-balancing technology. Onewheel, launching on Kickstarter this week is a dynamic new boardsport where riders can accelerate up to 12MPH only by leaning toward their front foot. Leaning back slows down, or even reverses.
