Skate 2 Demo Now Available

News | January 8, 2009 9:08 am
The demo for the highly anticipated Skateboarding Sim, Skate 2, is now available for download on the Xbox Live Marketplace. The demo is said to introduce players to the city of New San Vanelona, where they can skate with style and individuality via access to the enhanced character customization tools. The demo also offers a scant glimpse into the "deep single-player story" and "exciting challenges in all-new locations". The Skate 2 demo also features two of the game’s online Party Play modes: Thrasher’s Hall of Meat and Spot Battle.


Download the demo and hone your skills before Skate 2 hits stores as you rip around Slappy's, move objects to create spots, and take on new set of challenges. Also compete against up to 4 of your friends in an all out break your bones Hall of Meat challenge. Skate 2 will be in stores worldwide on January 23.






So get ready to grind your way through EA's Tony Hawk-killer. I am still looking forward to the price of the original Skate dropping when this gets released ;)

I can't get enough of this demo. It's amazing.

The graphics are 10 out of 10, pushing the 360 to its limits.
The character customization from Skater to clothes to board are 10 out of 10

The demo is on a timer but as you complete challenges it adds time to the timer so if you are good you can keep playing a long time.

The demo has two modes Career Demo and Party Play Demo, I haven't tried the Party Play part of it yet but I'm sure if it's anything like Skate 1 then it will be tons of huge ramps and a contest between multiple players to compete for score by tricking off the ramps.

I'm very happy I pre-ordered this game.
