Electronic Arts announces that development is indeed underway on a Tony Hawk killer...
Yesterday TVG reported on news from North America that Electronic Arts was working on a skateboarding title for PlayStation3, imaginatively called 'Skate'. Today, the developer/publisher confirmed that development of the game was indeed underway at their Black Box studio in Canada, and that Skate would be released on Xbox 360 as well as PlayStation3 in 2007.
"Our game offers a skate mecca for both skaters and gamers in search of the definitive authentic skating video game experience," said Scott Blackwood, Executive Producer, EA Black Box. "We're focused on capturing the actual feeling of skating with the innovative control system, the physics driven animations, the intelligent cameras working together to really deliver the closest thing to being on a board."
EA also announced two of the professional skateboarders set to make an appearance in the game, Danny Way and PJ Ladd, together with confirmation that the animations will be purely driven by physics for a more natural experience.
We'll have more news shortly...

SKATE owns. I have proving grounds but choose to play skate all the time because its just more interactive, realistic and fun.

skate owns, because you in a real city. Theres no quarter pipers up against buildings. In sake your in a real city. Plus TH is a button mashing game, while skate is more realistic and you dont fricken HIT buttons like to do a pop shovit, for Th its X then O for ea skate its down then up to the side. SKATE KICKS ALL ASS

Love TH, great game in it's day, played it to death on the DC - played other versions since - hasn't changed much - played SKATE demo, more like actual skating - control method makes you feel like you're in control, not the game. EA got something right.. didn't see that coming..

well the demo is out on ps3. and it is awsome. it feels smooth once you get the feel and looks fantastic. i did a demo compare with TH proving ground and well to be blunt......TH is going to have the living bajesus knocked out of it by the new kid infront of the hole skool. but don't take my word for it try both an you will see for yourself
