The graphics look amazing, the games going to be alot more realistic. I've heard that you won't be able to just pull trick after trick.

Xbox, PlayStation 2, PSP, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Which totally sucks as I won't be able to get it, why must everyone give up on Nintendo. :l

Edit: Sony and Microsoft get Project 8. Nintendo gets Downhill Jam.
Playstation 3 - Tony Hawks Project 8
Xbox 360 - Tony Hawks Project 8
Nintendo Wii - Tony Hawks Downhill Jam (Later release than the other two because of the Nintendo Wii's control system)

Santa Monica, CA. – May 8, 2006 -- Activision, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI) today confirmed that the company is currently in development on three launch titles for both the PLAYSTATION® 3 computer entertainment system and Wii™ (formerly code named Revolution) platforms. The company has been working closely with both Sony Computer Entertainment America and Nintendo on the development of Call of Duty® 3 and Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, which will be released on both next-generation systems, as well as on the Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment system from Microsoft. Activision also is developing two completely different games based on the Tony Hawk franchise – Tony Hawk’s Project 8™ for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, and Tony Hawk’s Downhill Jam™ for Nintendo’s new Wii system. In fiscal 2007, the company will release 10 games for the three next-generation platforms including the titles listed above as well as X-Men: The Official Game for the Xbox 360.

Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam will be developed exclusively for Nintendo.

Oh and theres more...

Now it seems Activision has decided to split the series in two - one half for Nintendo platforms, and the other for non-Nintendo platforms. The arcade-like Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam will be coming to Wii, DS and GBA, and the tentatively titled Tony Hawk's Project 8 will be the version you can play on Xbox, PlayStation 2, PSP, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. So from now on, when some kid asks you if you've played the latest 'Tony Hawks' your answer will require some addendums.

Each new games introduces new levels, new lines, new tricks, new customizeables. Which makes each game more skateable. On THPS, high score is about 400,000. On T.H.U.G. it was around 10,000,000. On T.H.U.G 2 (a let down) around 8,000,000 and on T.H.A.W, a quite good 105,000,000.

I predict the Nintendo Wii version of Downhill Jam will be.
Too bad they're 'splitting them up' though. Now I won't get to play Project 8.

Tony Hawk games rock my world. But they make some people get his name wrong. Some people think he is called Tony Hawks, not Hawk, just because it's 'Tony Hawk's American Wasteland' and they don't see the apostrephe.

Ok... Kind of random if you ask me but ok... I think that they need to be more innovative yes, also I think the idea of trick after trick gone is a good idea, makes it more realistic. They should make it eye toy capiable, now that would be really cool. But yeh, the new levels are cool and all but they need new characters and stuff as well and a lot of new tricks. A lot of the same ones since tony hawk one are still being used.

Tony Hawks Project 8 Character Lineup

Tony Hawk
Bam Margera
Stevie Williams
Bob Burnquist
Ryan Sheckler
Rodney Mullen
Lyn-Z Adams
Mike Vallely
Paul Rodriguez
Dustin Dollin
Nyijah Huston


As for Tony Hawks Downhill Jam, Hawk will be the only pro in the game. The rest of the cast is comprised of created characters. Which is going to be kind of rubbish as my favourite is Rodney Mullen. Why can't they just put both of the games on the Wii, Xbox and Playstation. It'll be much better. :P Splitting them up is stupid.

If Sony is VIP must mean Nintendo is aswell then because Nintendo are the only ones getting Tony Hawks Downhill Jam. ;)

THPS3 is the best game, but the soundtrack keeps getting better.

Yes, skateland is supposedly the easiest of the series.

T.H.U.G. 2 was a bit of a let down.

The third one (Tony Hawks Pro Skater 3) was probaly the best in the Pro Skater series.
