For the first time, players will have the freedom to define their character, story, and style based on the choices they make, the paths they choose, and the skating style they use in venues from Philadelphia and Baltimore to Washington, D.C. Tony Hawk's Proving Ground offers a wider range of customization than ever before, including a video editor with full-featured editing tools and visual effects for creating "epic skate videos" and a fully customizable online Skate Lounge where players can skate with friends in the ultimate pad. Additionally, players have the freedom to skate from single-player to online seamlessly, as well as use new gameplay mechanics such as terrain change and Bowl Carving. Tony Hawk's Proving Ground includes even more Nail the Trick moves, such as Nail the Grab and Nail the Manual, intensifying the thrill of pulling off big tricks.
