Video upload problems force Skate demo delay

We've got some bad news for eager Skate fans who were anticipating the demo release on August 15th. We'll make this as quick and painless as we can ... your promised Skate demo will not be out this Wednesday, because EA has officially delayed its Marketplace appearance. According to the official Skate forums, the reason for the delay is due to problems that surfaced when trying to get the nifty video upload feature to work properly. You see, Skate will be the first game demo to allow content to be uploaded to an outside website and the complexities they've stumbled upon have forced the delay. But fear not skaters, because the delay should only last a few days or a week at most and will not affect the game's September 12th retail release. You know, you could always pass the time by playing some BioShock.
