Bam Margera will be in Tony Hawk 3+4 after all after Hawk intervened, it’s claimed | VGC
www.videogameschronicle.comTony Hawk reportedly demanded that Activision put the troubled skater in the game…
Earlier this year, when Activision first announced the remake collection, it also announced a list of skaters planned to be featured in the game. This list included every classic skater originally featured in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 and 4, except one – Bam Margera, known for his roles in Jackass, Viva La Bam and the Tony Hawk series, was seemingly missing.
Now, during a live stream on The Live Club skating podcast, it’s been claimed that Bam was added to the game at the last minute after Hawk demanded he be included.

It’s the Nine Club, not the Live Club. Might have been an autocorrect. But anyone into skating this is by far the best skating podcast out there.
…Okay. But will the game be good?
Tony Hawk 1+2 was good, if they literally just do that again, then yes. There are areas to improve, but the core gameplay, which is just the Tony Hawk games, is still fun.
Skeptical after learning they are dropping the free roam nature of 4 and replacing it with the old 2 min runs
Why would they not include him? Is he controversial for some reason?
All I know is he and GP had beef

I doubt that has anything to do with anything
What did he do for skating that no one else has?
Yeah but if you remake a game and don’t include all the original characters then it’s not really a remake now is it?
Bam’s a shitty little attention whore but he’s not like, molesting kids, is he? I’m not sure there’s enough of a reason to exclude him from a remake of a game he was originally in.
… I don’t know, is that why they tried to remove him? Are all the other skaters in the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater games notable in some way that he isn’t?
I’m not trying to argue some point, I just know basically nothing about this and I’m curious.

The entire personal life section is pretty insane
He went off the rails after Dunn died. They even kicked him off of jackass 4 because he refused to stay sober, a requirement set to prevent steveo from relapsing
No. He is not controversial or problematic for any one reason…
Until he burns that bridge again
Guess you need this type of drama when youre trying to sell people a remake. Rumors has it, every game comes with a bottle of COQ10.
That’s pretty awesome of Tony Hawk.
I’m so sick of bam. Dude is a kook. Was he a pro skater? Sure. Did he do anything memorable? Nope. There are a lot of weirdos and “problem children” in skating. Mullen. Thomas. Addams. Templeton. Singleton. The list is long. But they all added something, changed something, or otherwise brought style and panache. Bam is an abusive drunken media whore. Fucking mook.
what did Rodney Mullen do
deleted by creator
I had no idea he was still alive.
It’s kind of impressive he still is
How many second chances is he up to?
Its not he’s gonna get drunk inside your ps5 and fuck everything up lol
Tbf, fuck Bam, I’d be mad if they removed him from the remake though, because he was in the original. I also think they should bring back all the secret skaters, though I know that may be unrealistic because of the copyright on some like Darth Maul.
I know my opinion doesn’t matter but I gave up on him in the podcast with Steve O.
He was saying he was sober but all he could talk about was stories of how awesome everything was when they were drunk/on drugs, that’s a classic (massive) red flag, I think it even has a name “war stories”.
