blackbox ,an EA. studio announced today that the demo for the highly-anticipated SKATE 3 will hit Xbox Live Marketplace and the PlayStation Network on April 15th, 2010. The demo will give players a taste of the University District in the all-new skater's paradise of Port Carverton. Players will shred through a series of single and multiplayer challenges including Domination, Own the Lot, and the bone-crushing Hall of Meat.

In addition to the modes and challenges, players can learn the ropes or perfect their skills in the all-new Skate.School featuring Coach Frank. Gamers can also sample the all-new object dropper by using 24 different items to tweak and alter the University District to create a personalized demo experience. Once players have that perfect trick nailed, they can capture the moment with the in-game Replay Editor and upload footage of themselves with the Skate series' immensely popular Skate.Reel.

SKATE 3 is the definitive co-op skateboarding experience as players build the ultimate team to take on unique team challenges, compete against rival crews online and shred the streets. In the end, SKATE 3 takes skateboarding to a new level with more tricks, improved off board actions, and gnarly Hall of Meat carnage.

SKATE 3 hits retailers in North America on May 11th, 2010 and worldwide on May 14th, 2010 and is available on the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system and the PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system. The game is rated "T" for Teen by the ESRB and "16+" by PEGI. More information can be found at the Official Website, become a fan on Facebook, or follow us on Twitter @Hippyjump.

This demo is going to be so sick...I'm glad they are giving us an entire district as well as hardcore mode. I'm going to be spending so much time with this demo.

This probably sounds crazy, but I wish it was a bit smaller than a whole district.

They other stuff is cool though

Well, technically they didn't say the whole university district, they said "a taste of the University District" might just be the actual university itself, who knows, may not be the full district...

did anyone else see the hand in the last pan of the video...not sure if that was a generated image or if theres an option to do something like that...

sooo pumped for this
i hope they have a timer like the s1 demo...not 20 minutes that you have to work for

No mention of a demo timer. Although that piece of info doesn't really qualify as a "selling-point" in a press release.

How many times did I reload the skate. and skate 2 demos, jeezis.

with no more ghosting it's pretty easy to do that. in multiplayer someone needs to stand where the camera is while the other is doing the trick. after the trick the one at the camera does a gesture like that shoulder shrug and you then simply film his hand.

or just do these gestures in front of a green or blue object, film it like you would, and chroma-key out the background. then youll have a "hand over the lense" clip you could use on whatever.

im sure this will be done from day one.. i feel like its already old.. like in real life, i fuckin hate footage ending with the stereotypical hand over lense shit..

anyone who does the hand over lens gesture gets a virtual slap
you know when you have to cut...it's when the clip ends anyway

it's gonna be that little thing that ruins a vid
