The guys over at Blackbox are hard at work on your beloved Skate 2 modifying and rebuilding what might have not worked too well in the first game. This making of video focuses on New San Vanelona as well as some other new areas you will see in the game.

Kick ass!!! I can't freaking wait. I wish there was a dynamic night and day cycle, but it's all good.

@the-hypnotoad: Uhh... yes.
It sold very well, and outsold that crappy Tony Hawk ghame that was released around the same time. Now the development team for Hawk are taking time on their next game, just because of Skate b*tch-slapping them.
Knocked Hawk out... for now.

I really enjoyed the first game for the most part but it felt like it was missing something. I can't quite put a finger on it but I'm hoping the EA team breath a little bit more life into the great skate mechanics they've built in the game.

@Momentarylogic: I've had lots of problems with comments not updating, etc. Kind of annoying.

It apparently outsold tony hawk 2 to 1 so it had to have done well at least sales wise. Personally, i was a big fan of skate 1, still play it every now and then.

I'm a skater and a gamer. This is my most anticipated game to come out this year. This is my GOTY.
Opinions ftw people.

Did skate really take off? I remember it was pretty well reviewed but I never heard about it much afterwards. Did the controls end up making it so that only the people that were really 'into' it played it for more than a week?

The fact that they're having a mock interview with some pretend hipster they're calling "Cuz" asking the questions puts into prospective just how EA thinks of the "hip and radical" teens today.

I'm so looking forward to this I'm all a-quiver.
Just thinking back to playing Tony Hawk's 2 when it came out and how awesome that was, I'm hoping for a similar vibe off the game and more endless afternoons wasted.

That scripted dialogue was a bit too much. Is this that Wii balance board game or is this for 360/ps3? doesn't look like something the Wii could handle but doesn't the Wii have Skating game with a very similar title?

@DukeOfPwn: its not that serious dude. coming from a guy who skated for 10 years in nyc, the culture was cultivated by skaters and those with a love for it. i wouldn't put to much into the authenticity of the interview. interview. many skaters got their input into the first skate. i would assume the same goes for part 2.
with that said, i'm crossing fingers for a holiday release.

@everybest:
This is the proper sequel for 360/PS3 ... the Wii game is called Skate It I think.

@DukeOfPwn: It's ok, you're not part of the skate community, so you don't understand. Feel free to make generalizations though.

I just cannot wait for this. I am so happy that someone finally made a game that really is about skateboarding and not just about doing stupid combos (I'm looking at you Tony!). Black Box are my heros!

i liked the first game, but didn't even get that far into it.
i dunno, i found it difficult! as well, i just kind of.. got tired of it, after a while.
i dunno if i'll pick up skate 2, but man that was a cool preview for the game.
i miss the excitement i had for skateboarding games after tony hawk pro skater 2. that game was a CLASSIC.

I wish they would include LOVE park in there somewhere. I know they're not using real world locations but a tribute to one of the greatest spots ever should be snuck in there somewhere.
