Eletronic Arts released this video of SKATE showing some of the animations in the game. And it moves really really well!
Loakum @Driftwood Awesome! I’m loving it! It does show a much crisper picture and the frame rate looks good! I was playing Stella Blade and Dragonball Soarkling Blast! :) (6 Days ago)

Not wanting to troll about aliasing and I'm sure it'll be addressed, but compared to the stuff originally shown a while ago, this seems way short graphically.
You missed my point
You missed my point
im not trying to b smart...i just want to know:)
Now that developers are able to create near releastic environments, it seems eiry to me that they are unpopulated. Now im not saying a GTA level or anything like, that some life needs to be injected into the backgrounds.
You probably don't notice since your focus is on controlling your character, or looking at the floor, but watching the vids you see alot of the environment, so naturally my attention was else where.
yeh it look quite good, but no actual gameplay and fairly bland, very realistic though.
I think you can compare these two games best with Burnout/Forza or Dead or Alive/Fight Night.
The video itself looks great. Perfect animations (although they aren't that smooth) and finally REALISM (that's all I wanted)...
YES! AHH! I can't stand playing TH games for that reason. Besides the fact that you are on a skateboard, TH has nothing to do with skating! There is no reward for landing a hard trick or a trick you have been trying all day (like real skating). Besides the fact that you can land any trick without having even trying (in the game). They have never brought anything over from what makes real skating what it is, into their games. Which is what is SO FRICKEN AWESOME about Skate! The controls sound awesome (from everything I have read).
I wish more games would take risks and do different stuff with controls (besides switching buttons around). This is a buy no matter how it ends up. If nothing else, it's something different than TH!
That statement is a little worrisome to me, but from what we've seen about this game so far I'm confident that it will still be pretty realistic. This is what I always wanted TH to be :p
Positive Reactions
+Realistic Tricks.
+Great graphics.
+Good animations (ok not perfect blending, but it is good)
+big city with realistic spots (no garbage bag quater pipes -read IGN interview- ), spot hunting FTW!
Hopefully
-Controls will be easy to pick up but tough to master.
-Character customisation/creation - Lots and lots and lots of variety please!
I'm definitely digging this realistic approach in terms of gameplay, but then they have to make the enviroments realistic as well.
Without any population, it simply isn't, and it misses the "charm" of going out skating on a busy friday evening in town kind of thing...
