Well I actully have a good feeling about this one. More realistic and looks more realistic. The 3d is amazing on this one. They also said that when you go up hill you slow down and when you go down hill you speed up. Just as you would in real life. More tricks more skateboarders and idk maby it will be put to shame with the rest but I do have a great feeling on this one.

its just animation test footage,just a basic level clearly. they probobly havent even began level design so early in the games lifespan,theyre probobly still developing/tweaking the engine,thus animation TEST footage.

Board still kinda seems to fat to me. It may have awesome physics, but what if theres only 2 different animations for each trick? Just a sketchy one and a clean one? It'll be pretty similar to the other games, just the 2 animations per trick could be more detailed. Lets just hope. Might be the first TH game i bought since THUG1!

pmurph
06-09-2006, 04:49 PM
yeah the boards are a little fat,they should vary.

Thats got to be one of the worst posts I've ever read...

1. Skaters generally aren't programmers or 3d artists, so I'd like to know how they plan on making the game.

2. Lots of the dev team Im sure skateboard, its developed in California, so yeah chances are a lot of them were into skating or got into skating after the development of the first game.

3. It isnt random people, you have to find people who are talented, if you just grabbed a bunch of skaters that would be "random people".

Not just anyone can develop a video game.

actually quite alot of the activision team skate,besides id like to see you do graphic modelling ,mapping and programming,letalone for a next gen title. i can do the first two but not very well.

06-14-2006, 10:49 PM
That's cool that it actually slows down once you're in a grind...in the other games you could grind forever and then some.

smurf88
06-14-2006, 11:36 PM
The trailer makes it look very realistic (aside from the Rodney Mullen tricks). It seems a new control scheme would be required.

Bakerbum211
06-15-2006, 12:04 AM
It would be cool if they had El Toro in it. And they should make it way harder. Like when you land something a bit off, you fall. The other TH games are sorta cheap.

Orkus
06-15-2006, 12:33 AM
Yeah you good land kinda sideways and still land it, but this one looks terrific hope it's coming out soon

"Aside from nice animations the other fixes to the game revolve around redoing the entire experience. This version is not a port of the previous engine but a new engine built from the ground-up. This new engine finds a closer balance between reality and arcade. You simply cannot just ollie and do a kickflip. You have to be going a certain speed, ollie at a certain height and/or flip the board and catch it clean to land the kickflip. Players that land their tricks clean are greatly rewarded. Characters have to go back and forth on the halfpipe in order to gain enough air for some tricks like the McTwist. It is not to say that the game is too realistic now, just the pacing has changed to make the experience a little more challenging and hopefully rewarding."

thats sweet! too bad I cant get this game though unless I buy a ps3 or Xbox 360...

06-18-2006, 03:26 AM

GrizzledJASPER
06-18-2006, 04:59 PM
Boo. I wonder why they chose to drop skaters like Andrew Reynolds, Geoff Rowley, and Jamie Thomas... and the new people? Dustin Dollin is a good pick, but do they realize who the skater of the year was? Guess Ill just have to create Chris Cole and PJLladd again and rotate between the two.

GrizzledJASPER
06-22-2006, 11:36 AM
I read in a mag that the game will recognize height also, so a flatground tre wont look the same as a tre off a huge set, which is cool, so hopefully it wont take .3 seconds to flip and catch, then have to wait 3 seconds to hit the ground.

Ian_Y
06-22-2006, 04:09 PM
I've been doin a bunch of research on the game..I'm just hoping there's some sort of mode where you can make videos of yourself in the game..like video parts and shit. Havin' filmers film behind you for lines...doing any trick you want on a famous spot..compiling it all into your own video part to share with friends over xbox live...that would be ****in sick if you ask me..this game looks awesome im reservin it for my 360 i just want something realistic..none of them are anywhere near realistic! i don't want to have to do stupid crap and keep combos going forever and ever..thats so lame i hate it

China Skate

that would be sick if dustin dollin was in project 8 man hes definatly up there on my fvaourite skaters list man.



and that game looks like it has WAYYYY better graphics then all the other ones. I saw a trailer for it like a month ago and it looked sweet it had kareem campbell, of course tony hawk, i might be wron i think terry kennedy, and geoff rowley, and rodney mullen in it.

Well I actully have a good feeling about this one. More realistic and looks more realistic. The 3d is amazing on this one.

06-28-2006, 02:56 PM
I was reading this thing about it yesterday and it said that as you gain speed you get speed wobbles, and the blancing from left to right on grinding has been beefed up. It also said that the expressions of the skater will look more realistic. I'll try to find the article... http://xbox.gamespy.com/xbox-360/tony-hawks-pro-skater-8/707835p1.html there are some vids here http://media.xbox360.ign.com/media/803/803274/vids_1.html and some more shit here http://www.gamestats.com/objects/803/803274/

HailToTheThief
07-04-2006, 12:17 AM
The game should be for the PS2 as well, being produced by Shaba games, the people who ported THPS 3 to the PS1 back in the day. It wasn't that good, seeing as it was missing so much from the PS2 version.
I expect the differences between the PS2 and PS3 versions in this game to be enough to make you not want it, unless you just want another Tony Hawk game like the ones before it.

Wow, notice that they are actually putting gravity into this game, I don't believe it!

lol you can't tell if it will relly have gravity even by the text it semms more like they used that to just characteristics of the sport that was only a trailer/cut scene ppl there's no way that'l be what the actual game looks like gameplay graphics are always differentand there has always been gravity in the others not the much ut you always come down

happy note: wow that's awesome i hope you really do get to do those rodney mullen primo slides

i also wanted to add maybe in the next one they should add a balance meter to also control trix that require you to balance on just one end like a 5-0 while also baancing left and right and i hope it's more challenging so when i ollie a 20 set (like in thug 1) i din't land ten yards awayfrom the bottom step it was too easy

Let me clear this up.Downhill Jam is going to be released for the nintendo DS and Wi, and the Psp. Project 8 is gong to be released on PS3 and X-Box 360. It will also be released for the PS2,XBox,and GAmecube but with less better graphics but I still think it will be one hell of a game on the current gen consoles. Watch the interview on Video Google, he explains alot. And visit www.planettonyhawk.com.

best bit in the article "While all of these goals are fine and good, it's the "nail the trick" goal type that'll really blow your mind. In the one we saw, Rodney Mullen showed up and asked us to perform a specific trick. But here's the difference. The nail the trick mode uses an entirely different control system. When you get in the air, things slow down a bit and the camera swivels around to show a clean view of the board and your skater's feet. Each analog stick controls a foot, from the sounds of things, and pushing in different directions causes the board to flip and spin in different directions, essentially letting you pull off your own tricks. The cleaner your direction taps are, the faster the board will spin, rewarding players for clean, methodical actions instead of just letting you jerk the sticks around and hope for the best. "

"In addition to using the new slow-motion, foot-control mode for nail the trick goals, you can drop in to this mode at any time by pushing in on both analog sticks. Since it sounds like this will be a key new feature for the series, it sounds like you'll want to use the analog stick at all times for control, which will sound immediately counterintuitive to anyone who's been playing Tony Hawk games for a long time. But this year, Neversoft is putting in work on the analog control to make sure that it responds with the same level of precision that fans of the series are used to. "

I don't see what is so bad abo8ut it. Sure, its looking a little unrealistic but its a Tony Hawk game.

That game lost a lot of stock from the first trailer to the second. They shouldve just stuck with the first one and let people assume it would be as cool as it looked on there. Those flips look like they need a lot of work, and they still have people doing frontflips into grind and stupid stuff like that.

2 and 2x are different games

07-24-2006, 06:18 AM
Ha no not at all. 2X is 2, once you beat it you get one. Then there are a few extra levels and it was only released on X-Box I believe and 2 for X-Box wasn't. Im not entirley sure but I know they are the same. If they were differnt why wouldn't they call it 3?

07-24-2006, 05:17 PM
oh man. that looks soooo good. i can't wait for it. it looks like it's gonna be so realistic. like in that one footage where the guy actually slowed down when he was grinding, and his foot actually moved into place when he got out of it. it's gonna be sick.

The trailer was cool as shit, but did anybody notice that the actual game footage looks exactly like every other tony hawk game, but with better graphics. (Except for the new flip stuff of course)

07-24-2006, 06:27 PM
yeah the flips where just ****ing horrible, i mean his feet dont even touch the board. I hope you can turn of that slow motion analog flipping thingamagige
level design looks pretty much the same with huge ramps and shit, and you can still grind for hours. but wtv its a damn game not reall life

But see, if you could only ollie 20 sumodd sets and kickflip even less and ollie only knee high it will be boring. I rather just go out and skate.

yeah,i would like a realistic game but i dont mind if its not. besides,the analog flipping sounds really fun,since you can rotate it anyway you want you can essentially create your own flip tricks.

Its called Project 8 bc its about a town full of kids and Tony Hawk comes into town to pick 8 kids to become amatures and those kids and you have to try to get better and rank your way up to the top 8. I hope that answeres you.

Actually, frontflips are realistic. Flatland backside 900 double back flip barrel roll isn't realistic.

Too true, those boardslides at the end would have broke that board right in half. The whole video made it look completely unrealistic. But, you kinda have to expect that from video games.

Yeah I thought about this idea before you wrote it here, but I think it could be frustraiting and lose some of the fun factor if it wasn't done right.

It is coming out on ps2 but it has a different developer, so I'm guessing it will be like wasteland and SK8 land. I might but get and Xbox 360 so if it is like wasteland and sk8 land them I'm saved but if it isn't I'm just goona get it on ps2.

Yeah, me too. I hate that, it makes the "realistic" factor even worse. I don't know why they added those.
