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.

I agree with you they need to either make a new skate game or just remaster it how they did with last of us

Vladimer How about PewDiePie make a Call of Duty 4 video?


Because COD is boring.
There's nothing good or funny about it.
Other than glitches that PewDiePie will not bother with.


Some people find CoD good or funny, I bet there's millions who hate Skate, and CoD4 imo was one of the funniest games to play, I took it less serious than I did Skate
