For those of you that aren't gamers, today an HD version of the classic Tony Hawk's Pro Skater was released on Xbox 360 (for $15). I've been playing it a bit today, and on one level I thought I spotted a car that looked vaguely like a Ford Focus ST (in Tangerine Scream too). I seriously thought I was hallucinating. Then in another level I saw another (The Mall level), so I got a little closer, and it was. Complete with ST badges and everything.

It's funny that they used a euro-spec model, complete with the gray wheels and headlight washers. But seriously, this is awesome. The ST is invading my nostalgia (I played this game all the time as a kid). It's like it was meant to be.

That's some creative marketing.

Wow. I feel stupid. I didn't even SEE the billboard advertising it, right next to it (see picture).

HAHAA! You was busy skating! THAT is genius marketing!

I need to download this tonight. Many an hour were wasted on THPS.

This makes sense since they marketed the hell out of the ST during the x-games this year.
