it's coming for xbox360 and ps3 on September 11th. This game is just sick and as someone who used to skateboard, it seems like everything I could have ever wished for from a skateboard game. Graphics are great, the controls are excellent... the whole experience is extremely realistic. I think almost everyone will love it.

Just getting the word out because I haven't heard anything about it yet in this forum.

EDIT: Make sure to check out the replay feature. You can control the speed of the replay completely by using the R and L triggers (omg so sick).

This game is fantastic. I've been playing the demo for a few hours a day. It's fun to just to master a laserflip or something. This game is going to have some serious replay value.

I'm so bad at this game, you can tell it's really deep. I can't pull a nollie at all, I've played NHL for the past year where the right stick only goes back and then forward to take a shot, I haven't been able to break myself of that habit. Seems extremely deep though and would be extremely cool once you get good with the stick.

this demo is definetly really tight.. this is what you would have wanted tony hawk to evolve to a few years ago.. very cool!

I bought the game today, pretty fantastic so far. But, my real reason to bump this was to post these two videos I came across in a different forum, the rag doll physics in this game is really well done.

BOOM, HEADSHOT
Ouch

This is the skating game I've waited for so long.

I skated in my early/mid teens and never raised above mediocrity but still loved TH games, Skates setup was the direction I always wanted the series to take though, you really feel the moves and the flow it's awesome.

That being said, I just picked this up and am pretty terrible at this game, being raised on TH my mind is conditioned to a certain control set that I keep trying to pull. Good to hear non skaters dig this game, kind of surprises me as it's really hard to do the crazy stuff that people not big into skating seemed to like in TH.
