SKATE: No DLC Content Coming



EA is known for tossing out a bunch of downloadable content for all it's games, especially on Xbox Live. It seems with SKATE though, thats not the situation.

"[We're] not planning any new content for Skate 1 ... We didn't want to go back and ask [people] for more money to get more shoes and shirts," said EA Black Box Executive Producer Scott Blackwood in an Afterthoughts interview featured in latest issue of EGM. "That's not how we wanted to enter this market."

Blackwood also touched upon the lack of female characters. "We really wanted women to be in there and have all sorts of cool stuff to wear and hairstyles," he said. "You have to choose between watering the whole thing down and making it just really mediocre for everybody, or do you focus? We decided to focus. I will say, however, that was the hardest decision on this project. But we are going to make it up to you. When we do it -- and we will -- it's going to be done very well."
