Shaun White Hits the Streets With Skateboarding Game
Shaun White has already proven he's the king of the mountain when it comes to snowboarding, and now his infectious personality is spreading to a Ubisoft skateboarding game set to release this holiday.
Although White's more known for his prowess as a snowboarder, he's also a professional skateboarder to boot, so this move isn't necessarily just a cash in. Ubisoft Montreal is developing the game for unspecified consoles, and there are few details regarding the title at the moment.
Shaun White's snowboarding titles weren't the greatest, but with Activision's Tony Hawk franchise having jumped the shark and EA's Skate series considered too hardcore by some, perhaps Shaun White can carve out a niche for himself in the sub-genre.
