SSX not even has a instant replay mode. That's pretty lame for a racing game with trick style contests. My pre-order has just been canceled.

Game is everything I remember SSX3(Gamecube Version)to be.

The series is now on next gen and minus the failures of past attempts:

SSX on Tour
SSX Blur

The demo gives the feeling and spirit back of SSX3 and does it so in ways that adds to the SSX3 Classic by making this game its most worthy predecessor.

Graphics - Arguably Perfect
Gameplay - EXTREMELY intuitive and responsive

The best thing about the game is the fact is that its a throwback to SSX3 with MAJOR upgrades thanks to what modern tech can pull off.

I don't feel they could have done any better

Every race every trick feels and looks different.

This is the opitimity of organic FUN (tried to get that right HA!)

Theyv'e added a few things new and those things blend seemly in the world I remember in SSX3.

I miss the lodges I miss Royksopps' Poor Leno, but I'm not gonna miss out on SSX for 360/PS3....

It's just beyond a reboot, it's a remaking of a classic I thought wouldn't be made...


EASport's, Connor and Company!


You guys pulled it off

I just finished playing the tutorial and I have to say this might be a game I get after the Show is released. The tricks are nice to pull off using the L and R sticks. The race down the 1st mountain was FUN! I'm really not a racing or extreme sports type of gamer but I think this game can appeal to many different types of gamers. I probably will rent first before I buy it tho.

I really must consolidate my complete enthusiasm and positive feelings regarding this game, or I would need my own section

Put simply, this is easily a top contender for game of the year, and is an absolute pleasure to play. Talk about being in love with a video game!

DO YOURSELF AN ENORMOUS FAVOR, AND BUY THIS GAME!

Better words could not have been said.

The bar has been raised for video games in general. Not only is the franchise of SSX gloriously back it's back in a way that is uncomprimising of control or fun factor.

Here at OperationSports we talk Sim we talk realism and yet when a game based on a sport that can only be made in this way where realism and sim need to have that fun factor it makes you wonder why this hasnt been attempted in other sports games.

Haven't played a better pick up and play game in ages
