EA Skate Graphics Comparison

Dangerous Dave has posted a helpful set of screenshots to aid us in making up our own mind about which version of EA Skate is visually better - Xbox360 or PS3.Dave notes how IGN reviewed the same game on the 2 different consoles and scored the Xbox 360 version at 9.0 and the PS3 version […]

Skate is the clear winner

Xbox360Fanboy have released the results from their “What you gonna buy?  Proving Ground or EA Skate” poll.
The results were rather weighed on the side of the newcomer, Skate.

It appears that Mr Hawk has had his day, snapped his deck and gone home.
Seeya!

Skate Reel Update

It looks like our good skating buddy friends over at EA have finally taken the Skate Reel site out of beta!
You can now choose between Xbox360 and PS3 content and there is actually stuff in each category now too!
However, the knock on effect has been that the EA Skate Reel Video Downloader page by Undert03 […]

Proving Ground Achievements List

Now that Tony Hawk’s Proving Ground has been released, we can take a look at the achievement list created by Xbox360Achievements.org.

EA Skate or Tony Hawks Proving Ground
The current round of comments on the post certainly seem to be going in EA’s favour - but with the online gameplay issues and Beta Skate Reel site, their realistic slant on skateboarding is not […]

Realistic EA Skate Video

I have been on the lookout for realistic videos created using the EA Skate game.
The video trying to replicate Girl Skateboards Mouse video is excellent and I have just found this video on YouTube that also takes a more serious attempt at making a skate video.  Nothing too unrealistic here - and a great advert […]

Skate DS

Whilst Skate is available on Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and Mobile(!) platforms, those of us that perfer a bit of handheld gaming have to rely on the older Tony Hawk fanchise to get our fix.
The Nintendo DS is the perfect platform to port EA Skate to.  With it’s touch screen capability, you could easily implement […]

Skate 2 wishlist

A brief Skate 2 wishlist has been posted over at Danne’s EA Skate Blog and covers most of what I have already thought could be included in the next version of the game.  There has also been a few good posts at the UK EA Skate Forum on the same subject.
