Tony Hawk's Project 8 (PS2)

Dont recommend

Have not tried the game but the disk arrived in a box that looks like it had been dropped in a puddle. You should not mark goods as 'very good'if it is barely acceptable. Not worth 50p sell-on car boot value, no one will want this. Ta. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/help/seller/at-a-glance.html/ref=oh_aui_sellerprofile_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&isAmazonFulfilled=0&marketplaceSeller=1&orderID=205-8114561-6281905&seller=A1HW61MP7JQPZY

Best game

Another good installment to the Tony Hawk's series!I emphasize the word good, the game hasn't improved that much.The graphics are same as ever, looking good.Tony Hawk has come to your town as he has heard of some very talented unknowns out there that he wants to put into his new team sort of thing, "Project 8". You work your way up in the ranks doing goals.There is no start difficulty setting, in each goal you have to do more to get to a higher rank. The difficulties range from Amateur - Pro - Sick. The higher the difficulty, the more ranks you go up.In this new installment, I would have hoped they would have improved on the realness of the game, but yet again they've failed.You start off being able to do any trick, just imagine this; an 11 year old pulling a 900 mctwist off a building, yeah that's what you can do in this game.Now for "Nail The Trick". It's a nice tool, and adds even more flexibility to the engine, well thats's what I thought at first.You use the left analog stick to control the left foot, and the right analog stick to control the left one. When I first tried it out I thought "Yay! I can make up my own trick and pull a different one in every ollie!", well that's what I thought. You seem to be limited to the kinds of tricks you can do. I thought this was flexibility but really, it isn't. You also get 10+ seconds air time from a single ollie when you're in this mode, it may be in slow motion but this is so unrealistic.If you're a Tony Hawk's virgin, buy this game. The series are great but this game won't impress any Tony Hawk's veterans like myself.

Another Tony Hawk game, each one expected to exceed the next with capabilities. For some reason this one doesn't. The story-line is probably the worst yet - the goal being to become one of the best 8 skaters in the area to become part of Tony Hawks "Project 8". The only problem being, once you get to the best position, nothing in particular happens. You work through the levels (which arent continually streaming like in Amerian Wasteland) trying to do these stupid goals like "Try manualling about 200m around this impossible track with many corners".They used motion capture on the real skaters for the "realistic" look. However realistic the actual kickflip looks, the continue to use the traditional "ollie as high as a house and more" attitude towards things, and when your ollie becomes better you can stay in the air for so long it's just stupid.Additions like "Nail the Trick" mode (means that you can manually perform a trick in slow motion), and the new Am - Pro - Sick difficulty modes, at first seem a good idea but are generally a waste of time when you consider that the basic areas need improving. The graphics are pretty similar to the games before, some of the levels seem improved but the skaters remain ridiculously quickly made with very bad shape.They have removed the Create-a-park mode, and have extremely limited the create-a-skater mode with 3 skin choices, and 3 faces to choose from. If you're looking for a complicated person maker, think again. Although the basic Tony Hawk game essence is there, it really is quite a dissappointment. Worse than the last few titles in this series, it seems like a quickly made, bad designed game with many repetitive tasks, boring levels and lack of story. This game was probably made quickly with a big focus on making the new PS3 game better.
