Reengineered from the ground up for Sony and Microsoft’s next-generation consoles, Tony Hawk’s Project 8™ immerses players in the definitive skateboarding experience using ultra-realistic graphics, enhanced physics and extremely responsive controls that simulate the feeling of skating with every trick and bail. The game challenges players to experience the intensity and pressure of skating against some of the world’s top pros in true to life competitions as they aim to become the #1 skater and establish their town as a skateboard destination. Delivering continuous skating action in a free-roaming living environment, Tony Hawk’s Project 8 incorporates the series’ most popular features, all of which have been enhanced with next-generation technology.
KEY FEATURES:
Next Generation Gameplay Brings Skateboarding to Life: Tony Hawk’s Project 8 is built from the ground up with an entirely new engine for Sony and Microsoft next-generation consoles and features the most advanced graphics ever for a Tony Hawk game, including full 3D body scans of pro athletes and motion captured skateboard tricks. Gamers have the freedom to progress through the game in multiple ways and decide the type of pro skate they want to be.
Most Unique, Robust and Realistic Skateboarding Game Experience Ever: Tony Hawk’s Project 8 offers more goals, side-missions, secret areas and mini games than any other Tony Hawk game. Players track stats with new in-game record keeping, switch characters mid-game to accomplish a goal, or just skate how they want to skate.
Innovative, Never-Before-Seen Gameplay Elements: Featuring new gameplay mechanics, Tony Hawk’s Project 8 challenges fans with the most goals ever in a Tony Hawk game. Players interact with pro skaters who teach special tricks and show paths to secret areas. New elements include:
Filmer and Photo Goals – On the way to #1 pro-skater status, players must trick through photo shoot locations, or follow a filmer with a video camera and complete his instructions while keeping up with him.
- “Picture-in-a-Picture” – Player can watch gameplay unfold on the main screen while observing the action on film in a superimposed video box.
- “Movable Ramps and Rails throughout the city” – Place ramps and rails to set up amazing lines and/or gain access to secret spots.
- “Impress the Locals” – For the first time ever, players must impress in-game citizens and pedestrians to build up respect. The pedestrians watch players perform tricks, laugh at brutal bails and punch players in the gut for knocking into them.
Enhanced Physics and Responsive Controls: The new physics system introduces advanced grinds and bails that allow players to control falls and minimize or maximize damage for fun with the innovative new ragdoll bail mode. A greater sense of momentum and gravity is impossible to miss, and provides the most realistic virtual skate experience ever.

i liked p8 alot i loved the graphics and the games play i admit the story was not the best but it's still enjoyable the best bit is the
little details in every level that make it so realistic
Complete CRAP!

This game is horrible. It feels like it's half finished. I played American Wasteland and finished it thouroughly enjoying the game all the way through to the end and when project 8 came out i was excited. Big mistake
This controls are anything but responsive, the game has some of the crappiest graphics to be seen on playstation 2 ever! and the story is way to short and doesn't seem at all real.
The Free Roaming is gone, taken straight out of the game and so is the online mode and all the Create-A mini options.
What you can create is a character from which you can choose from 3 different faces and about 10 different shirts and pants(A huge step backward from American Wasteland and even THUG2)
Also the wall running and jumping that was introduced in THAW is gone aswell which was a huge dissapointment to me as i quite enjoyed jumping and fliping from building to building like a Pro Skater Spiderman (THPS2)
The only thing that i sort of like about this game is the difficulty setting's. Each goal you try offers a Am-ature Pro-fessional and SICK level for more advanced players.
Overall this is a truly horrible title and a disgrace to Every other Tony Hawk game right back to THPS1. Neversoft You should be ashamed of yourself and take a blowtorch to this terrible crime against humanity.
Stick with American Wasteland

one of the worst in the series
Reviewed by Anonymous from nz on November 19th, 2006
you know all the things that made american wasteland great, free roaming, and all the tricks that had been added on since the previous game, they are all gone, such as the bert slide. they have been replaced with a story mode that can be completed in an hour, and small levels which if you have played previous tony hawks games before will seem very familiar. there are very few levels, few characters, and you have to unlock special tricks with tokens which take ages to obtain. you cant go online, you cant create tricks and levels, the only thing that is good about this game there is a slight improvement in graphics. give this game a pass, at least until it drops in price.
