Tony Hawk's Project 8: Impressions

Fortunately, Neversoft has come to the realization that fans want a real next-gen skateboarding game, and have since been putting work into Tony Hawk's Project 8, which is due for the PS3 and Xbox 360 next month. Gamedaily were able to get our hands on both builds to see how the game was shaping up, and there's a big surprise that may just change everything. Here is a close look at the PS3 edition.

I want to see what's so next gen with this title. From the gameplay-videos it looks like you'll still be able to pull off as ridicolously unreal tricks (720 triple hardflip anyone?) as in past games, which is sad. Being a retired skater myself, it wud be nice to see a skateboard game that captures what true skating feels like. Another thing thats annoying about past TH games is the speed you travel at. Like skating in fastfastfast forward. I hope theyve done more than cosmetic changes for this one.

I think EA's SKATE is supposed to provide a more realistic, technical feel to it.

schnodder7161d ago

.... SKATE will be awesome ... i hope!

PS360WII7161d ago

Tony Hawk series has been going downhill since the first one. True it is really rather fake in terms of speed and amount of combos and tricks one can pull off. And yea good question what is so next gen about this one?

Lex Luthor7161d ago

Too bad the PS3 version doesn't have online, i would take online over tilt anyday.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle30d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde37d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy38d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga39d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit38d ago (Edited 38d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199238d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga38d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac38d ago (Edited 38d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman38d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box39d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion38d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7239d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7539d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit38d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14939d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7739d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
