skate 3's bizarre second life

When the Skate franchise first came out it was the first skateboarding franchise to rival Tony Hawks Pro Skater. With it's open world, upgraded skate mechanics, and updated graphics, it took the world by storm. But as Skate 2 and 3 came out, the game got better, but players seemed to be falling off. Now, 12 years after it's release Skate 3 is starting to make a major comeback on new consoles.

skate 3 never left, it’s been here the whole time

[HellaNorCal]

It didn't go anywhere. It was just the last good skateboard game. It's just unfortunate that it's been 13 long ass years. 😢

Bro did 2 seconds of research and pulled the rest out of "trust me bro" 😭

“It may not have gotten the attention it deserved upon its release in 2010”

"Spilling back over onto YouTube." Shows ZexyZek who has been making Skate 3 videos nonstop for over a decade.

Finally, being recognised?!
This was like the biggest game in 2012 2017

Saying something spilled from TikTok to YouTube is the craziest thing I’ve ever heard

[InFamXYT]

Dude doesn't know what a decade is

[SpawnIsSleepy]

it never left, zexyzek has made videos and consistently had a relatively stable viewcount. and hes the biggest skate3 youtuber so it would effect him the most.

[toshirokigai]

Such a strong community, hasn't wavered after the game has sat stagnant for over a decade

[xXBCDXx]

I remember playing skate 3 with my friends in high school and now I play skate 3 with my daughters. It’s crazy how time flies.

Skate 3 was always popping. Tiktok just started using it like subway surfers

[BakerZone]

Skate 3 was the ish. You’re tripping if you think it never got the love it deserved. Been waiting for skate 4 forever

[cryptodweller]

Imagine hearing skate for the first time today and thinkin it’s makin some sort of new wave when it’s been here the whole time

[LxMxNxG]

If anything this is its third life, because like back in 2014 it got so big again that EA actually had to reprint more copies.

[Harryjordan]

This game is up there with Halo 3 and The Orange Box for me. such an underrated gem of the era

[declation]

Zexyzek didn’t start playing because the trend, zek was playing long before the trend even happened

[kitkatchomper]

this game carried me in 2015 when i couldnt afford a ps4 and only had a ps3 and skate 3

[MxrkJJ]

Icl skates never been underrated, for me at my age everyone i knew at age 10-11 was playing skate, every gamer before the minecraft black ops 2 era played skate, even ppl who would never touch a skateboard in real life. Classic gem, hopefully the new one releasing isnt shite

[ilikemusic]

nah bro it seems like you’re the only one who forgot about it, Skate 3 has ALWAYS been installed on my Xbox since it’s release
