I&#8217;d be interested to hear what real skate video creators thought of it. And good to see recamming making a comeback too! </p> <p><object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/jnGRsTW-1jA&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/jnGRsTW-1jA&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object></p> Wed, 24 Jun 2009 18:10:39 +0100 urn:uuid:0aeeaf98-541f-44f2-9a47-8f6764d6a80c Hugh "Nomad" Hancock http://www.machinimafordummies.com/articles/2009/06/24/skate-2-skating-machinima-engine News <p>It does look interesting.
