UK Charts: SSX Shows it’s Not so Tricky to Top the Charts
The all-new re-launch of the SSX Snowboarding franchise from Electronic Arts has slid straight into the charts in the number one spot. The re-birth of SSX has been greatly anticipated, and despite the lack of same-console multiplayer, the series has obviously still got quite a following after several years of inactivity.
Also, it seems that all the hype surrounding the announcement of Assassin’s Creed III has helped the sales of its predecessor, what with Assassin’s Creed: Revelations re-entering the charts in the number nine slot – up from 31 last week! Indeed, the PlayStation Vita effect on the charts seems to have waned somewhat already, and more multi-format games that were missing last week have moved back into the top twenty this time around.

If I'm not playing on a good Adventure Game - still longing for the long-past Golden Age of the genre, when Lucasarts and Sierra ruled supreme - you might find me searching for a local arcade, in the hopes that it still houses titles such as Sunset Riders or WindJammers.
