Skate

Why? Why another skateboarding game? Is there even anything more they can do with the sport in a game. What is supposed to set this apart from any other skateboarding game that has come out in the past seven years?

Or is this game one of thoes, "not even worth talking about" games already?

    Have you actually seen footage of it, it looks nothing like THPS, and shockingly innovative from EA.

    Well, for starters, they've mapped all the tricks to the right analog stick (a recurrent trend in EA Sports games), which supposedly makes it much more intuitive/fun/whatever. I'm much more excited about the fact that it seems entirely more realistic than THPS; you can't pull off like 5 fucking backflips in a row and then grind for ages.

    That's all I really know about the game, but goddamn, it's good enough for me. I can't stand THPS' objectives and its bullshit attempt at humour, that game just isn't funny. Plus the game looks great, the animations are quite fluid, I believe there's a rather deep character creation process... It looks pretty friggin' hot.

    Demo today, correct?

    Uh.... this will be nothing like Tony Hawk. Also, there is already a thread for this game. Third, demo was delayed.
