New footage of Skate and word of a demo

If you've seen our previous coverage on EA's Skate, you probably know that we consider it to be the greatest thing since the George Foreman grill changed the way we looked at the culinary world, forever. Our play date pals over at GameTrailers cornered the ever-so-modest producer of Skate, Jason Balmer, to see how the game is progressing. After seeing their footage, we're completely floored as to how incredible it's looking these days.

Through the typical musings of Tony Hawk, Jason casually mentions that the game will see a September release and that a demo will be made available. Exactly when, you ask? We've asked EA for a comment on the matter and we'll let you know as soon as we hear back. As a consolation prize, please enjoy the E3 2007 trailer of Skate after the break. You'll be very glad that you did.
