Skate 2 hits consoles this month and to get their virtual skater fans ready for that magical moment, EA has just revealed when Xbox 360 and PS3 gamers can get a demo of the title.

On January 8, Xbox 360 players can download the demo from Xbox Live Marketplace, while, sadly, PS3 fans have to wait til January 16 to get theirs from the Playstation Network.

But never fear, if you hold out until January 21, you can get the game itself!
