Skate 3 Nearly Tops The UK Digital Charts Following Xbox 360 Sale

Team Xbox has been putting a lot of its time and energy into backwards compatibility over the past few years, and if these Skate 3 sales are anything to by, it's certainly paying off!

As reported by GamesIndustry.biz, the 2010 Xbox 360 sports game Skate 3 powered its way back into the top ten of the UK Digital Charts for the week ending October 24th - the apparent result of a recent EA Spotlight Sale which saw the game temporarily reduced to just £3.74 in the UK.

This isn't the first time Skate 3 has been reduced to such a low price, but we'd speculate that the spike in interest also results from the recent successful revival of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 by Activision, along with the announcement that EA is working on the next entry in the Skate series.

Here's the full top ten GSD Chart UK Digital for the week ending October 24th:
