Skate 2 Screenshots Celebrate Release Day

January 21, 2009 10:45 AM

The PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of Skate 2 head off to retailers today, so EA sent along a new batch of screenshots from Black Box's latest, and last, in order to celebrate.

But don't worry! Just because developer Black Box is shutting down doesn't mean the series is done, as EA promises that its development teams and "associated game franchises" are simply being relocated to a nearby office in Burnaby, British Columbia.

Also, don't forget that a free demo of Skate 2 is on PlayStation Network and Xbox Live.

  Always have to remember to add +1 to "release" days. It's a nasty little trick that publishers like to taunt us with. "Release Date or Shipping Date" and "Street Date" are usually a day or two off.
  
  No worries, it'll be at your friendly neighborhood retailer some time over the night and we can all enjoy the skating goodness tomorrow. :)
