Skate 2 demo this week (CVG 5/1/09)

EA's planning to release a Skate 2 demo via Xbox Live Marketplace later this week.


According to a listing on Xbox.com, the demo should arrive by Thursday, allowing you to sample the Black Box developed boarding sequel ahead of its European release on January 23.

The game features a load of new tricks and moves the action to an all-new city where you can get off your board and move objects around to create ramps and scenery.

MS is running a Skate 2 download and win sweepstake, offering Skate goodies and MS Points to the winners, more details of which can be found here.

There's no word on a PS3 demo yet, although we're checking with EA.
