Collector interest

A transitional Neversoft entry, Tony Hawk's Project 8 modernizes the boarding with its slow-motion Nail the Trick mode and a more realistic open world. Become fairly rare on Xbox, its interest lies in this attempt to renew the series rather than wide distribution. A piece valued by fans of arcade skating wanting this technical turn.

Is Tony Hawk's Project 8 still worth playing in 2026?

Released in 2006, Neversoft's entry introduces the Nail the Trick analogue stick mode to give unprecedented expressivity to figures. The seamless open world and the quest to break into the elite Top 8 install real ambition. The handling stays accessible and the rock punk soundtrack maintains the energy. A few missions feel dry and the sense of an exhausted Neversoft formula starts to creep in. Recommended today for Tony Hawk devotees and for nostalgics curious about the moments just before Neversoft's swan song on the original Xbox hardware as the series moved on.
