"EGM's September issue features the very first details on EA's upcoming Skate 2. Here's a sum up of the key features:
Takes place five years after the original game, after the city's been hit by an unknown disaster and had to be rebuilt.
Includes an option to play as a female character.
This time around with a character editor, inspired by the one featured in the Tiger Woods series.
With an ability to jump off the skateboard and move away any objects that might be in your way, thus opening further roads and trails.
The frightened passersby jumping out of your way as you ride.
Teleporting yourself to a previously marked location without the troublesome loading times.
Renewed camera including another third-person perspective.
Will make use of EA's own web for uploading home-made videos.
Supposed to run at full 60 frames per second.
Skate 2 is set to come out at the end of the year for both Xbox360 and PS3."

Now, this was taken off of a forum online, but as we know it's been rumored already that the new EGM will hold Skate. 2 info. So this information may very well be true! Let's hope so, it all sounds good! Especially that "end of the year" part! Here's a link to the forum: Link to the forum.
