Have you ever wanted to learn how to skateboard without all of the hassles of actual skateboarding? Well, you might want to look elsewhere.

Tony Hawk: RIDE was not only one of the worst skateboarding games ever created, but the controller needed to play the game was an unresponsive hunk of plastic.

By using sensors on the side of the board and gyroscopic controls built within the board, you were meant to perform tricks and control the onscreen character by leaning forward and backward.

Needless to say, it did not work as intended and became not only one of the worst controllers of all time, but one of the biggest failures in the Tony Hawk brand of video games.
