Oh, IGN, you so crazy. Yesterday, it was posting a story about Pandemic working on a Batman game and then promptly removing it. Today (well, technically last night) it's skate being ported to Wii and DS. The story apparently went up Tuesday and was soon removed.
What's interesting is that both the mysterious Batman project and skate are EA titles. So ... did IGN get some exclusive info and then let the bat out of the bag too early, deleting them moments before uncle EA could wrest his whippin' belt free from his dungarees? We're betting yes, but we'll almost certainly never know.

Skate + Wii = fugly.
Skate + DS = lousy controls.
How do they expect they can pull a story after it's been published, I mean as this article shows, what happens on the Internet stays on the Internet...forever. Even if you're not happy about it.

You notice how my comment gets voted down by all the fanboys, regardless of the fact that I am a Nintendo fanboy. Honest observations are not a crime. Skate's controls wouldn't work on DS without the dual analog, unless they just made it play like Tony Hawk, and regardless of the fact that it is a great system the Wii doesn't have the horsepower to handle this without some serious cutting down of graphic quality. They're just jealous cause I got first comment.

Notice the other game IGN let slip.
Hint: it's Batman.

I would love skate on the DS. I have always loved the Tony Hawk hand held games.
