A new GitHub repository, theokyr/Project8Recomp, has appeared with the goal of recompiling Tony Hawk's Project 8 for native play. The project targets the Xbox 360 release of the skateboarding game, and commit c8c21e2781acd134de6b2ccf12b666145e00ea6c now sits in the repository.
Recompilations convert a game's original console code into a native build, a route that has become popular for keeping older titles playable on modern hardware. Project8Recomp is at an early stage: the change set contains no releases, builds or feature notes. For Tony Hawk fans, it is a project worth watching.
