What was said
"And I said, "I don't what does that even mean?" And he's like, "This is what it means." And he slid a check across the table for $4.5 million."
Tony Hawk recalls that, after the fourth Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater game launched, an Activision contact told him it entered the top-10 sales charts while the first three games were still there. He says the contact then slid him a $4.5 million cheque to illustrate what the success meant financially.
