Activision’sTony Hawkfranchise was already in decline by the time the originalSkatecame out back in 2007, but EA Black Box’s analog stick control scheme and focus on realism acceleratedTony Hawk’s descent into obsolescence. EA is working on the second sequel to that game,Skate 3, and it’s due out for PS3 and 360 this May, less than a year and a half after the release ofSkate 2.
Back when EAannouncedSkate 3, they offered up a pre-order bonus: the Black Box Distribution Skate Park (it’s apparently areal place). Now we’ve got some video footage of the in-game location; check it out above! It looks pretty rad. (Yeah, I’m hip with that skater lingo!) You can head to the game’sofficial Web sitefor all the pre-order options available to you.
