Re: Im thinkin about buying this game

I had this game and thought it to be the worst in the series.

 

It is the same as all the other TH games but the frame rate is not constant enough.

 

I believe SKATE is supposed to be better.

Re: Im thinkin about buying this game

I have not played Proving Grounds so i would not know.

 

It may be worth downloading the SKATE demo and trying to get used to the controls.

Project 8 and Proving grounds are both amazing games. If you like tony hawks games you should like those. Project 8 is far more difficult and better than proving grounds though IMO

If you're deciding between project 8 and proving ground... pick project 8.

I think a lot of people don't like the game due to it's difficulty. I don't think it's as good as project 8 but it's pretty close. All the new goals are fun too. Lot's of difficult stuff especially if your new to the game. This game took me longer to complete than project 8 although I would say p8 is still the most difficult. This game as a lot more to do. I would get it, I paid £25 for mine a while back and never regretted it.

Re: Im thinkin about buying this game
i got it yesterday and im loving it only got it to hold me over for skate 2 though cuz skate imo is the far better game once u get use to the controls cuz it is more sim style. only problem with skate was it was an EA product so of course it had some online issues. and no im not a fanboy or nething like that of skate i have been playing the tony hawk series since tony hawk 1 for the n64. tony hawk games are always fun but if u want a more realistic game like i do then skate is the better choice. as for proving ground compaired to project 8 i would go with proving ground i find the story to be more fun.

^ Yea, that's right. P8 didn't really have a story. It was just get to the number 1 spot. Be the best. Proving grounds as a bit more depth to it. I'm not really one for realistic games. I prefer hawks more than skate im a hawky!

You can't, the only time you can play as a pro is through the classics machines. I think there is a glitch with the warehouse that let's you be a pro. I don't know it but i've seen people talk about it on here.

Re: Im thinkin about buying this game
I don't think that's true, project 8 is one of the best. I think the difference is. The newer ones are sandbox whereas the earlier's are levels. I prefer seperate levels :)
