Skate 3 Teaser Trailer

Meh, I'm not that much into skateboarding/extreme sports games.

I think that the time between Skate 1 and 2 was ideal, even though I am way into skate and I still play it even now I think its too early. Those the ability to darkslide and manipulate the board more looks cool. Hopefully then level design is better becuase Skate 2's world couldn't hold a candle to skate 1's.

Dude Co-op play! sold! not.. well seems skate has went the way of the birdman. So i guess i can expect the 4th one by fall '10.. awesome.. 

I have been waiting for this! Those new tricks look nice, especially the dark slide. One of my favorite games ever.

Yep, that totally looks like a Skate game...

Darkslide! :D

Skate 2 was such a huge improvement over the original. I love where EA is going with this series. Stoked.

" I'm way into Skate 2 but this does seem pretty early to announce a sequel. "

JEFF HAS TO DO THE QUICK LOOK TO THIS GAME!! just like he did for Skate 2 aha

" i don't really see what new features they could add to warrant an entirely new game. how about some more dlc. oh i have an idea! make skate 3 have all the property of skate 1 and 2 and when you release dlc add it to the map and make it seamless instead of making me load up the new map. I loved skate 1. played it to absolute completion. skate 2 was good but i wasn't quite as into it. getting off the board was nice. foot plants and hand plants and hippi jumps were cool but that feels like it could have been a patch. how about charge me $20 for skate 3 and mark it as an expansion pack? playing S-K-A-T-E against pros wastes my life. or! how about an ssx style skate game. same controls, ability to push faster and get bigger airs? "

Holy awful animation batman!

Looks like more skateboarding, so yea.

I love Skate 1 & 2 but seeing those darkslides and underflips has me worried that they're going the THPS route with the series. Just because a handful of pros do those tricks, it doesn't mean they need to be in the game. I'm enjoying that they're focusing more on co-op but i'm worried the game is going to get too arcadey and will turn off the audience they were going after with the series. I'll still wait until I can play it to fully judge it, but my hopes aren't as high as they should be right now.

Not everything can be DLC. Some changes to gameplay need engine modifications and thats something that you can't do by DLC. Like let's take L4D2, the changes they make to the AI director and new zombies are something you can just add in since it would need serious engine or AI modifications that cant be done over DLC.
Multiplayer or Co-Op is also something you just cant add to a game if you didn't make the game able to have it added later. Meaning that you need to prep. a game for DLC, you need to have hooks in the origional game that makes the DLC that you want to add in later work whit the game. 
And the changes EA is making to Skate 3 seem to be significant enough that it would be a big ass DLC pack since it will be in a new city, have co-op and have a new creation feature.

Skate 4, Skate 5, Skate 6....

i will definitely rent this, play it for 3 hours, let it sit at my house for 5 days, take it back late on accident because it will be such a mediocre game.

I find it funny that the song is called "born to loose". I think that might be a sign. o_o

" Skate 4, Skate 5, Skate 6.... "

I enjoyed skate 2 inspite of it's many frustrations there was some stuff i would of like to see so this annoucement is good news to me.

 One thing that i'd like to see in the next game is a larger player cap for freeskate sessions, 6 players in freeskate was somewhat boring.  Better matchmaking would be nice to see aswell. 

audio is nice, visuals are very bright :)

little bit early too early to care

hooray for being able to do tricks with your board upside down. hooray for new city. boo for Skate2 having existed.

" His head is cropped off at the end. THE SIGN IS EATING HIS HAT. "

I wish skateboard game makers would focus on what is beautiful about skating, rather than the sketchy tech and huge air/rails. By basing games like this on either going tech or big they are missing the simplistic beauty of skating. Damn it make a beauty and grace meter into your game!

This looks bad. I mean, it just looks... Bad. Ugly. Very ho-hum graphics in the teaser, and horribly jerky animations. This might have been impressive in 2005. Don't get me wrong, I liked the first two Skates, but this trailer does seem a little too soon and leaves a bit of a bad taste in my mouth.

This is going to end up just like the TH series. :/

Skate 3 already? I hope there's gonna be a bit more to this game than just more skateboarding.
