Septemer 11th in the US. I thought it was the 14th in Europe which would make sense but others have said the 21st for Europe I think.
 
Awesome demo, definately getting this game when it comes out. Gameplay is so realistic its amazing.

Favourite trick so far -> 360 double nollie heelflip :p

Any know the proper way to pull off hardflips and varial flips? I seem to just do them by accident.

I think they are as if you were doing a shuvit, so pull back, around to the side, but instead of just going up around the side.. about a quarter of the way up push the stick across the centre line so..

AWESOME. THank you. I was stuck with just pop shuvits and kick/heel flips. I didn't realise there were so many more :)

I played it again this morning. Every time I go back to it I love it more. IT IS SO SATISFYING!!! Pulling off a really good line is awesome. Flipping onto a rail, flipping off into a manual etc. It is wicked.
 
i think i've been spoiled by tony hawks, its starting to annoy me, the number of things you cant do

impossibles
fingerflips
darkslides
any flatland tricks
any inverts
several stalls

:(

anybody checked out the skate reel yet?
the video quality isnt bad at all, dont know about sound though cause my speakers are playing up :(
 
Great demo. Takes a bit of getting use to, but its oh so satisfying when you land a perfect grind. This looks like it will destroy Tony Hawks.

EA Websites are rubbish. I tried for 10 minutes to login and couldn't despite creating accounts. Their websites are slow and don't link up with each other well at all.

Remember this is their first stab at this type of game, so it is bound to be missing some things. IMO though the gameplay makes up for a few missing tricks so much. This is 10x better than THPS P8 (which is a game I played and loved so much)

I will still be getting Proving Grounds as well as this, but I think Skate will see most of the action. Really pleasantly surprised by this demo :D
