Thank PewDiePie for EA reprinting Skate 3 years after release

4.5
EA’s glitchy Skate 3 has been in the UK top 40 charts all year after EA reprinted it.

Why did EA bother reprinting a 4 year-old game? Because YouTube personalities like PewDiePie made the game popular again, according to MCV.

Retailer GAME requested a reprint due to in-store demand and as such the game has sold 32% more copies in the first half of this year than in 2013.

If you’re not one of the 12.4 million people who have witnessed the Skate 3 hilarity, get your eyes around the video below.

Would love to see a skate 4 or something.
Just hopefully it'll be on next gen also

Potion I think that they should have just released skate 4, skate 3 was a big let down for me.


There might be a skate 4 down the line on next gen

I don't think I've ever played Skate 3 but it looks like a lot of fun. I have Skate 2 and I used to love it and play it a lot.
