Tony Hawk's Proving Ground (abbreviated as THPG) is a video game developed by Neversoft for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 video game consoles; by Page 44 Studios for the PlayStation 2 and Wii; and by Vicarious Visions for the Nintendo DS. Proving Ground is the ninth game in the Tony Hawk's series, (Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2x, Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam, and Tony Hawk's American Sk8land are side games and not considered part of the main series).
There are three different skater classes—Rigger, Hardcore, and Career—each with its own set of special abilities, and each determining the direction of Proving Ground's career mode story. The DS version does not have all 3 different classes, instead it uses a balance between Career and Hardcore.
Proving Ground also offers a full-featured video editor and a customizable skate lounge where players can skate with others online and add items that they have unlocked throughout their progress in Career Mode. It also has a new mechanic with the Nail the Trick feature which is Nail the Grab and Nail the Manual The video editor, Skate lounge and Nail the Manual are not available in the Nintendo Wii and Nintendo DS versions of the game. The PS2 versions just have Nail the Manual but they don't have the video editor and skate lounge.
Proving Ground also includes real-time changes to the skater's appearance based on the amount of injuries inflicted on the character. Also, unlike the two previous games in the series, you are able to customize your skater from the ground up, instead of picking a template first.
