Point your eyes down the page at the first images from Skate, EA's Tony Hawk-rivalling skateboard title, which is set to hit PS3 and Xbox 360 next year.
The shots give you an idea of the bright, colourful look Skate is aiming for, as well as the real-world inspired locations that'll be busy with real-world dangers, like roaring packs of traffic to skitch on.
With a "unique" control scheme that developer EA promises will capture the true feel of skating, in comparison to the "typical button mashing gameplay of past skating games" (no points for guessing the series that quote's aimed at) and a trick-busting mechanic that ought to produce a different looking flip, grab or move every time, Skate already has us interested.
