Version history

Version timeline / 4 records

Why the line uses different statuses

A timeline can show order without pretending every point is a release.

The original Skate 3 release has a calendar date and named platforms. Xbox One is backward-compatible listing context, not a second original launch. The browser entry is a present fan project, but no calendar release date has been announced. The Skate 2 browser plan is future context with no announced date. These four statuses prevent false precision.

If you want the original release date, the answer is September 13, 2010. The browser entry is an unofficial current surface, not an EA release. The Skate 2 browser plan has no announced launch date. Those answers are more useful than guessed milestones.

Read the line from the dated anchor outward. September 13, 2010 fixes the original release, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 identify its first platforms, and Xbox One adds later compatibility context. The browser entry then answers a different question about a current fan route, while the Skate 2 plan belongs to the future. That order keeps dates, platforms, and availability from being mixed together.

The original release point

The dated anchor is PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2010.

Skate 3 released on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on September 13, 2010. That date anchors its systems: Port Carverton, Skate.School, manuals, the Flickit analyzer, Hall of Meat, team challenges, Skate.Feed, park and graphic creation, and cooperative play. Start here when you want the original game, its platforms, or its training and social routes.

The release point also prevents a common category mistake. The browser surface is not another 2010 platform entry. It is a later fan project with an own-copy boundary and a loading flow. Listing it beside the original release shows the relationship without collapsing the two products into one history.

Compatibility context and the current surface

Later listing context is not the same thing as a new game release.

Xbox One belongs in the line as historical backward-compatible listing context. That tells you how the original game can be encountered later, but it does not change the original release date or create a new set of Skate 3 systems. The browser entry sits beside it as a modern fan project with a web route, loading state, and own-copy boundary.

The browser entry names PC, phone, tablet, online play, and a slow first load. Those labels set expectations, but they are not a formal platform launch record, support matrix, or proof that a private session works.

When you compare the entries, keep the question attached to the milestone. PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 answer where the original game launched. Xbox One answers how that release appears in later compatibility context. PC, phone, and tablet answer which device categories the browser entry names. The slow first load, own-copy boundary, and online label describe the current route, but none of them changes the original release date.

The future plan stays future

A future plan needs a date before it becomes a release milestone.

The Skate 2 browser plan is future-facing context. It is not a dated release, current build, playable version, or promise that the Skate 3 route will change on a known schedule. Treat it as a plan until an announced date and playable release exist.

For Skate 3 browser context now, check the current entry and its own-copy boundary. For the original game, use the release and platform record. For future updates, check the browser project directly instead of treating this timeline as a release calendar.

Use the undated entries as status markers rather than deadlines. The browser surface can be checked now, but its loading flow and own-copy boundary do not create a calendar launch. The Skate 2 plan can explain future-facing language, but it remains a plan until a dated, playable release appears. The original game’s release and platform facts stay fixed while those current questions change.

Use the timeline according to the question in front of you. A player choosing a historical starting point should select the dated Skate 3 release. A player checking whether the original game appears on a later console should select the Xbox One compatibility context. A player preparing a browser attempt should select the current surface and then read the setup and performance pages. A player looking for the next project should select the Skate 2 plan and keep its missing date visible. The same four points are useful because each one answers a different player need.
