Thursday Night Throwdown 5/13: Skate 3

Thursday Night Throwdown, Giant Bomb's live weekly multiplayer show, leaps blindly into its third week with the third in EA Black Box's skateboard fantasy series, the aptly and efficiently named Skate 3! If that sounds like something you're into, hey, we'll be playing Skate 3 on the Xbox 360 between 4PM and 6PM PDT this Thursday May 13th, 2010. By the virtue of the smaller, team-based multiplayer in Skate 3, we probably won't get to play with as many of you as we did, say, Halo: Reach, but how often does a worthwhile skateboarding game with a strong multiplayer component come out? (That's a rhetorical question, by the way. Right now it's locked in at every 18 months.)

So if you want a shot at out-ollying Giant Bomb's resident skate expert Jeff Gerstmann, send you a friend request to the gamertag GBTNT and hope for the best. Of course, you can also just watch the action on our live stream and cause a ruckus in the chat room if that's more your speed. 
   
UPDATE: This week's TNT is now over! Thanks to everyone who joined us, and if you missed it, you can catch an archived version of the last 43 minutes of the broadcast in the window below. Enjoy!
