[lightcollapse]

who's getting this shit? sooo excited

[romantic rights]

I will probably end up getting it eventually.

[lightcollapse]

i want it now. dammit.
they said they'd try and make it more like 4, andthat's my favorite game ever.

[lightcollapse]

oh man. so excited.

i'm surprised there aren't more threads onthis, when american wasteland came out everyone was like OMG

[DroppedUrPocket]

Basically because this is the 8th Tony Hawk game...that plays almost the same as every other Tony Hawk game.

This isn't coming out for the Wii, is it?

No, they have Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam, which is an abomination.

[lightcollapse]

i don'twant to buy a ps3 for this though, supposedly the ps2 version is lame.

fuck, i guess i won't getthe new hawk

[Chemical Love]

I played it the other day. I liked it but it didnt do much for me.

That new game Skate looks pretty cool. They said its made to be more realistic, like no grinding on phone lines and doing 20 tricks in a row.

[headclub]

yea, the game looks sick, cant wait to get my 360 so i can get it

[MattRM]

The PS2 version is horrid.

Graphics are worse than the last couple games, some other company, Shaba, made it while Neversoft focused on the next-gen versions. They made everything so easy; just press square to manual instead of up and down, and whenever you land a combo, you get a timer for like five seconds to continue your combo, you don't have to revert-manual any more.

Not too happy with it.

[Trainsaw]

is it any different than the other 7, do you create a character or do you get to play as skaters again?

[Scott Irvine]

Its on the 360 too, right?

Yeah I looked at it and it was awful.

[Talib Scottie]

The actual adventure mode or whatever the fuck you call it is much improved, but everything else suffered, on PS2 anyway.

I swore I heard they were rebuilding the game from the ground up a while ago but it's the same fucking game with 1 new feature. It's better than the last three though.

Which I have a feeling is pretty much the same thing as the 360 Racing game you can get from BK for 4 bucks.

worst tony hawk game ever. i've never been so dissapointed with a release in the franchise, ever. they dumbed it down soooo much, it's way easy now. not a challenge. i beat it in 24 hours. too short. uncreative levels. poor lines. stupid goals.

bleh. fuck this franchise. 4 > all.

[GoWaitInTheCar]

Tony Hawk games always claim to be better then the last. I'm just so bored with them..

its really that bad? how is it easier now? man, i guess i wont be getting this game anymore

[BreakerBreaker]

I heard there was slow motion where you had to use the analog toggles to kick the board. If so, that is sick.
