i don't have a 360 though. it sounds like i need one though. tony hawk is way to unreal for skateboarding ou get like 100 ft of air off the mini ramp.

just saw the commercial for THPG, looks interesting, maybe cool.

Integ_TNT, ... first move the guy does in the comercial is hit a kicker and jump 50 stairs, no joke, if not more... with a shuvit too

after the difficulty in trying to real life skates or the difficulty in just trying to do a 360 flip... or even a 720 or quad heelflip... fake or real, skate is a challenge that is much more interesting to me

but manuals suck on skate...

bought skate a couple days ago. hands down the best skateboarding game ever.

only things i dont like:
1. you cant get off the board to walk up steps.
2. curbs get annoying as fuuuuunk
3. pedestrians.
4. some of those last videos u have to make (when u get all of the sponsorships but before xgames) are almost impossible. seriously took me over 40 tries.

other than that, this game is incredible

big_dee45, you are correct... SKATE=GREAT!

seems like tony puts out the same game every year just different skate places. gets boring

bmr712, i agree, i thought they were going somewhere with project 8.

but now they put this out and it is just the same as always again.

buy skate.

all i have to say about tony hawk games

spine transfer to nosegrab frontflip... totally real

Space Ghost, that isn't even that ridiculous compared to some of the stuff in that game. its actually something that can be done in real life.

pass on proving ground unless you dont have any skate games, maybe rent if you want to play through the story mode.

Kay-Kay, yea i know it is but its just fun doing it
one of the things i hate about those games is just how many streets do you see that a bordered with quarterpipes and the same with the tops of buildings
