Tony Hawk

[Agent Zero]

We all know that the TH games have been on a decline; but since all three games you reviewed reviewed A's, you should catch up on the series by getting Project 8 and reviewing it. I would love to see a review of THP8. It is one of the best 360 games out there (don't get it for PS3).

Why do you say not to get it for the PS3?

I had a good time with Tony Hawk's American Sk8land on DS. It's shallow (only 7 levels), but fun.

Simple. It's the framerate.  The PS3 version has some pretty inexcusable slowdown and choppiness that the 360 version lacks.  And it's not just Tony Hawk, but almost every Activision game that's on both 360 and PS3 suffers from the same problem on Sony's machine.

Although Activision is at fault for that, I also blame Sony for not helping them (or many other third party companies) get used to the PS3's system arcitecture; it would seem that as far as cross-platform 360/PS3 releases, it the whole Saturn vs Playstation thing all over again (except this time, Sony ain't winning).

Also, the PS3 version absurdly lacks Online Play. I do think that you should get it VGC.
