Destructoid got to check out Skate 3 last week but seeing as how we brought you a pretty detailed preview already, I’ll just touch on a couple of things that weren’t covered. Other than the new focus on team play online or offline, the other big part of Skate 3 is that you’re playing to form your own brand. The better you do in the game, the more exposure your brand will get and the more boards you’ll sell.
Skate 3 will also let you take pictures of yourself anywhere in the game and this plays into creating your own brand. If you nail tricks and objectives, you’ll see your brand pop up all over the city such as billboards.
The one new feature Skate has needed since the original is the ability to create your own skate parks. Not much about the new feature was discussed, but you’ll be able to create some pretty cool parks. About time!
And finally, Jason Lee has a role in the game. His character is Coach Frank and he’s your teacher at Skate School where you’ll learn the basics of skating. This character is actually based on Jason Lee’s real alter ego of Coach Frank which you might find funnier if you’re a skater.
Check out the new dev diaries above and after the jump along with some new screens for Skate 3 in the gallery.
