If you like skateboarding, but don't care much for video games, Electronic Arts' Skate 2 is the perfect excuse to shell out some cake for an Xbox 360 or Playstation 3. If you're a fan of the first Skate game, then owning Skate 2 is a total no-brainer. Bob K, Kelly Litz and myself had a chance to preview the game at Vancouver's Black Box Studios back in October, and a similar version of what we got to play is now available as a free demo download on Xbox Live and the Playstation Network. The full version of Skate 2 comes out for the aforementioned platforms on January 21st. Thanks to Jay Balmer (Skate 2's Gameplay Producer) for taking the time to do this Q & A about the game.
