I skate, so when the first one came out I couldn't believe there was a good skating game. I liked the series up to underground. Now there's a scheduled release for this year (9th game). I think they missed the boat on when to stop. anyone else agree?

Yes, definlatly. The first 3 were great, but then they began to get a bit hyped up.

Not me I luve em, I think there great they really capture something about skating, especialy projhect 8 the nail a trick mode is very close to what real skating is like, I'M not sick of them although they should leave a little time between them becuase thgen they could put in a lot of new things instaed of just a few new things each year, but I do love them there great games.

I love them but project 8 was s***.

They need to find a good balence between raw skating and story.

Not just a good story or just good skating.

Yeah I completely agree, I think the last great TH game was pro-skater 4 after that It all got wierd and comicy.

Project 8 was trying to bring it back to life but it did nothing for me tbh.

I used to think that... untill Project 8 came out. They actually had some creative new features worth paying for that made this game my favourite Tony Hawk game of all time. This 9th instalment I will not buy however unless it can show me some new innovation that can seperate itself from the THP8.

I did get tired of Tony Hawk games but for some reason I bought project 8 just to see what it would be like for Next Gen consoles and I have to say it was pretty dope. They did have American wasteland for the 360 but that was was basically the same as the one for regular xbox with a few graphic tweeks. Project 8 was the real deal next gen, you may want to check it out if you have not done so. You may be surprised, I was.

I think from Undergroun to AAmerican Wasteland, the series was at its lowest but Project 8 was an excellent game.

I skate too, and I agree with you, Tony Hawk games as of late have been going downhill. Hopefully SKATE will live up to my expectations though.

The THPS series has gone downhill ever since it went to the regular Xbox and the PSX (PS1). They have recently been trying to add a story to it now and it's generally a lame one. Back in the day on the greatest THPS.... that's right, THPS2, I don't remember there being much a story. There was just go skate, do what's on this list of goals, and have fun. The game also featured the best music in any of the THPS games. Now in American Wasteland, didn't they try adding some hosh posh story to it which really sucked? Above all, they had Bam Margera in there. Gawd does anyone like him?

Anyway, even though the THPS series is getting worse I still end up buying and enjoying them for a short while. I also usually don't buy them anymore till there is a price-drop on the game at Fry's or EB. The re-play value just ins't there anymore. I've yet to play Project 8, but the demo was pretty fun. If THPS had a good solid online I might pick it up, but as far as skateboarding games go I am really looking forward to SKATE from EA.

I skated for 6 years, and i still do from time to time, and i really enjoyed Project 8.

In saying that, i hated both THUG games, and im exited enough about the possibility of SKATE being good, but somthing about the footage makes me think its a little "off".

I guess i really enjoy how polished the TH series is. Sure its crazy arcady, but u can just have fun doing small kickflips over kickers if u want.

I loved THPS1, THPS2, and THPS3. After those games....the franchise went downhill. I hated when they started throwing in a bunch of cheesy characters. Skate could be a good game, and a great alternative to the stale TH franchise.
