Skate 3's PS3 & Xbox 360 Amazon.com Sales Ranks


Skate 3 was released today for the PS3 and the Xbox 360(sorry Wii only owners).
The last skateboarding game that I purchased, was Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3, on the Nintendo Gamecube.

I have never played any of the Skate games in the series, but I have heard/read they are pretty solid skateboarding games.
In April, I started tracking the sales ranks for both the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of Skate 3.
Here's the chart:

Chart Info:
The only day I missed collecting data was Wednesday, April 21.
The Xbox 360 version of Skate 3 crossed into Amazon.com's "Top 100", on May 4, around 11:40PM.  It was ranked #72, when I recorded the data that day.
Skate 3 on the PS3 crossed into Amazon.com's "Top 100", 5 days after the Xbox 360 version, on May 9, around 11:25PM.  It was ranked #90, when I recorded the data that day.

The Highs & Lows:
The highest recorded sale rank of Skate 3 on the PS3 was #85, on May 10, around 6:45PM.
The lowest recorded sale rank for Skate 3 on the PS3 was #761, on April 17, around 12:40AM.

The highest recorded sale rank for the Xbox 360 version was #35, on May 10, around 6:45PM.
The lowest recorded sale rank for Skate 3 on the Xbox 360 was #340, on April 20, around 12:10PM.

Questions:
As I said above, when it comes to skateboarding games, I have never played any of the Skate games, only Tony Hawk games.
If you have played both Skate games and Tony Hawk games, which series do you prefer more?
Did anybody purchase Skate 3 today for either the PS3 or Xbox 360?  If you have had the chance to play it already, what do you think about it, so far?

If you are interested in either version of Skate 3, you can see prices for both on Amazon.com below:

  1. I've only played Tony Hawk 1 and 2 on the PS1. Brings back memories. They had the best sound tracks.

  2. I've loved the Tony Hawk games up to Underground 2. Then they started getting bad.

  4. @keith:
    I'm glad you liked it!

    @Nicodemus at Nite:
    I played TH1 on my Sega Dreamcast...
    So, I just checked actually, and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater is the game that is sitting in my Dreamcast!

    @SuperPhillip:
    I only played a one of the Tony Hawk games past TH3, and I don't remember which one it was, but I remember it was pretty fun.

    Thanks for the comments!

    Has anybody else played Skate 3 since this was posted?
