After a five years hiatus the snowboarding giant has returned and reclaimed the top spot in the gaming charts according to "Chart-Track", its last outing was SSX "Blur" on the Wii and before that "On Tour" for the PS2 so this is the first big step up to current gen for the dwindling franchise.
That being said it is a massive achievement for any game to debut number one in the charts let alone one of this genre. Quickly running through the top five there's obviously SSX at one then you have Fifa 12 still hanging in there at two, Mario Party 9 debuting at three, Uncharted Golden Abyss bringing the Vita's contribution at number four and sadly Mario and Sonic London 2012 Olympics at number five
On a personal level I'm slightly surprised by the success SSX seems to be having, I had no doubt that it would sell but not to this extreme, the high sales figures this game has gained can only be a positive for fans of the series who will likely not have to wait another five years for the next instalment.
