EA SKATE 2! Video Interview



EA Skate dropped last year knockin a game from the crowd favorite franchise (Tony Hawk's Proving Grounds) out of the skateboarding game consumers' food chain. With its new Flick It trick system, continuous button mashing doesn't guarantee a landed trick. In other words, you actually have to TRY in order to land something. This means when you finally nail that line you wanted with you sick banger you're actually excited, just like real skaters. Upgraded physics, tricks and pro skaters helped lead the game to the top last year.

EA Skate 2 is gonna dominate once again this year (I believe its droping this year, not sure). It has DOUBLED your bag of tricks by adding lip tricks, foot plants, no-comply, hippy jumps and many other new tricks and variations. The game also gives you the ability to move objects in order to create new lines. This new feature would more appeal to street skaters because we who skate street have an eye for creativity.
Check out the video for word of mouth from one of the developers.
