Forcing me to write a stupid skate trick-related headline, Electronic Arts has revealed that Skate 3 will hit North American shelves on May 11. The rest of the world will have to hang tight, as it'll release worldwide on May 14.
When EA sent me Skate 2 for review last year, I was having massive issues playing it. It wasn't the game's fault, though; it was just that my fingers couldn't get the hang of consistently pulling off tricks. (You can only bail out so many times before you throw your DualShock across the room at your cat... or is that just me?)
I ended up passing the game along to Brad Rice for review, and he seemed to do just fine. But maybe this year, I'll have a fighting chance. Skate 3 features an all-new "Skate.School," which apparently holds your hand through learning the ropes. You know, for slow people. Like me.

Shhh!!
Wow, I suddenly feel so old...
Anyways I really like how they show you when your messing up the trick sometimes I would struggle landing a specific trick and the pros dont fck around they throw some difficult runs out there.
I will by this purely for hardcore mode.
Still, nice to see him doing more skate stuff again. Stereo (his company) is all over that video, tho...
