Hawk: RIDE is not a gimmick

Bony Tony's continuing to stand by RIDE, despite the fact it's been battered to death at review, saying he doesn't feel the peripheral format is a "gimmick".

"I feel like the device is a flagship for other games. I think we can do another skate game, I think we can do other board-type games, surfing, snowboarding. That really was the master plan," he told Kotaku.

"I didn't think it was some gimmick that people were going to have to buy again next year."

Or any other year, from the look of it. Hit the link for the full thing.

Thanks, EG.
