Ollie, one of the most basic trick that every skateboarder must master if he wants to gain more respect from the prowlers of skateboarding flatlands and parks. Ollie requires a skater to pop his skateboard into the air, making him look like he's jumping with his feet glued to the skateboard. And who is better to show us how to make such dare-devil tricks than pro-skaters like Tony Hawk, or at least a character rendition of him.

This video shows not only an accomplished ollie, but also other insane tricks like nose manual, 50-50, and double heelflip being executed in the game's wide skateboarding environments. From skateparks to the suburban streets, you are free do any daredevil move that you like. Of course, count in the bruises (if you're lucky) and bone-crushes (need we say more?). But don't fret over those nasty bruises and fractures as there are some goals in the game that really calls for breaking a certain number of bones; well be thankful that at least it's not in real life.

Tony Hawk's Project 8 features playable characters of some of the world-renowned skateboarding icons. The game offers a real adrenaline rush in one of the most extreme games ever, with detailed visuals of skateboarding environments and bone-breaking challenges that unleashes the "skateboarder" in every player. The game also offers cool music backgrounds such as "I wanna Live" by The Ramones and "Zoo York City" by Funk Face that heightens your skateboarding experience.

Tony Hawk's Project 8 is also set to be released on the Xbox 360 and PSP on November 7 this year. For more updates on the game, be sure to stay tuned here at QJ.
