Tony Hawk's Project 8 (PS2) Two-Player Mode: No Split-Screen, Only Hotseat

No split-screen / simultaneous 2-player. The PS2 version (downgraded port) only supports:

• Pass-the-Controller (Hotseat): Turn-based in Free Skate / Classic Mode.
• Competitive Mode (Ghost): Race against a friend's saved ghost run (score/line).
• Ad-Hoc (PSP only): Not on PS2.

Xbox 360 / PS3 versions have 2-player Split Screen (Free Skate, Graffiti, Trick Attack, HORSE).

If local versus is essential, play THPS3, THPS4, THUG2, American Wasteland on PS2 — they have split-screen. Project 8 and Proving Ground PS2 removed it due to engine constraints.
