 great skatboard game January 13, 2008
i like tke this game allot ill rather play this game than SKATE....the challenges are better and funer...
Very Addicting Game July 4, 2007
Overall the game is great. The graphics are so crisp and the flow and look of the characters are on point. Like other THPS games, of course they have certain things they want you to do that are or may seem impossible but after practice and doing the same little mission over and over again you'll eventually pass it. So far the best of them all in the THPS line.
 Fun to a point June 1, 2007
The tony Hawks that im famaliar with were the tony hawks of the old I loved the original I could not believe how much time i would play it and still want more. Then the 2nd came out which added all to the fun after tony hawk 2 i didnt pick up a single title till project 8. I remember the fun of the originals and yes those were very different times were talkin about the original playstation which at the time these games came out was the hottest thing around but now we our certainly in the NEXT GEN and thus comes my review for project 8 I like other dished out the money for the ps3 awaiting to be blown anway by graphics and game experience at the time i bought project 8 there wasnt to much that appeased to me so i said hey I liked the old tony hawks why not try this one well alot has changed since the originals but only for the better the game is real big and the new Slo mo effect which might not be all that new but new to me really adds to the fun but overall its alot to accomplish and learning those tricks takes dedicatioon I loved the game but ultimately gave up since I bought other ps3 games and figured it would take to much time that I didnt not want to waste on skating but I would say if you really enjoy these games you have to check this out because like a reviewer said before I did skating in this big immersive world is crazy and lots of fun ! but in the end if your dedicated to skating and really love these games get project 8 but if not then just rent it and have some fun with it.
I hope youre ready to skate exiting new places!!! ohh wait... March 6, 2007

I haven't played Tony Hawk games since THUG, so I really wanted to try the new one out to see what new stuff has come about. I'm not very happy with most of anything in this game; I know it's not bad, it's just skating around doing a couple of tricks and getting points. but the missions seem dumb, and repetitive, they still have this whole thing where you can walk, which seems pointless to me because it doesn't do anything good except but climb stuff, if you get on your feet skating, its because you're gonna run to get some speed before you do your line. I like the fact that the levels are connected, and the new nail the trick missions are fun. Besides that, the game doesn't have the fun it used to, neversoft is more concerned on you chaining 60 repetitive tricks into a combo that actually making an enjoyable skating game, I do enjoy chaining some combos, but not 5 minutes of the same crappy tricks just to get the multipliers. Also, besides the pointless walking, they have some features which are new to me that seem pointless as well, like the spinning around on the mailbox or pole, & grind stalls. To me, they should try to make this more like THPS 3 or 4 those were really fun, no matter how much I played them, I never got sick of them. I hope they do figure out that they should concentrate more on good missions, less combo chaining, and really fun stages instead of revamps of the old stages, like the school & fun house, when there are so many other new locations and countries to skate on!!! But no, were stuck in suburbia and the old factory, again!!! I really do hope they get their heads together and the next THPS is really good, but I'm not going to find out, because this is the last time I spend any money on any Tony Hawk game.
LOOKS GOOD, WAS FUN FOR AWHILE.... BUT... March 1, 2007
