Special thanks
to Jose Liz for the following preview of
Tony Hawk’s Project 8:
Tony Hawk’s latest is reengineered from the
ground up for Sony and Microsoft’s
next-generation consoles. Tony Hawk’s Project 8
immerses players in the definitive skateboarding
experience using ultra-realistic graphics,
enhanced physics and extremely responsive
controls that simulate the feeling of skating
with every trick and bail. The game challenges
players to experience the intensity and pressure
of skating against some of the world’s top pros
in true to life competitions as they aim to
become the #1 skater and establish their town as
a skateboard destination. Delivering continuous
skating action in a free-roaming living
environment, Tony Hawk’s Project 8 incorporates
the series’ most popular features, all of which
have been enhanced with next-generation
technology.
Next Generation Gameplay Brings Skateboarding to
Life: Tony Hawk’s Project 8 is built from the
ground up with an entirely new engine for Sony
and Microsoft next-generation consoles and
features the most advanced graphics ever for a
Tony Hawk game, including full 3D body scans of
pro athletes and motion captured skateboard
tricks. Gamers have the freedom to progress
through the game in multiple ways and decide the
type of pro skate they want to be.
Most Unique, Robust and Realistic Skateboarding
Game Experience Ever: Tony Hawk’s Project 8
offers more goals, side-missions, secret areas
and mini games than any other Tony Hawk game.
Players track stats with new in-game record
keeping, switch characters mid-game to
accomplish a goal, or just skate how they want
to skate.
Innovative, Never-Before-Seen Gameplay Elements:
Featuring new gameplay mechanics, Tony Hawk’s
Project 8 challenges fans with the most goals
ever in a Tony Hawk game. Players interact with
pro skaters who teach special tricks and show
paths to secret areas. New elements include:
Filmer and Photo Goals – On the way to #1
pro-skater status, players must trick through
photo shoot locations, or follow a filmer with a
video camera and complete his instructions while
keeping up with him.
“Picture-in-a-Picture” – Player can watch
gameplay unfold on the main screen while
observing the action on film in a superimposed
video box.
“Movable Ramps and Rails throughout the city” –
Place ramps and rails to set up amazing lines
and/or gain access to secret spots.
“Impress the Locals” – For the first time ever,
players must impress in-game citizens and
pedestrians to build up respect. The pedestrians
watch players perform tricks, laugh at brutal
bails and punch players in the gut for knocking
into them.
Enhanced Physics and Responsive Controls: The
new physics system introduces advanced grinds
and bails that allow players to control falls
and minimize or maximize damage for fun with the
innovative new ragdoll bail mode. A greater
sense of momentum and gravity is impossible to
miss, and provides the most realistic virtual
skate experience ever.
The game is being developed by Neversoft
Entertainment for Xbox 360 and PS3, while Shaba
Games is working on the game for Xbox and PS2.
Activision expects to release Project 8 this
Fall.
