Thorgi Duke of Frisbee Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 Oh my God SSX is SOOO GOOOD. You should buy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luftwaffles Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 i would be all over this if I had an Xbox or PS3. Sadly, no PC. Which sucks. I fucking loved both Tricky, 3, and On Tour. How's it compare to those 3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 I've only played the demo, but it seems to be most similar to 3. My copy should arrive in the next few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luftwaffles Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 Ah, jeez. Watched the giantbomb quicklook. Now I'm totally tempted to get a PS3 suddenly. This game looks really great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFlyingGerbil Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 I CAN'T WAIT!!! for it to drop in price. I really enjoy SSX games. Do the real mountains seem less OTT and fun, more serious? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorgi Duke of Frisbee Posted February 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 (edited) The mountains are still insane. Each one is intricately detailed, and some of them are so filled with hazards that it might take a few retries before you can nail a solid line down the mountain. I've heard some mixed things about the Deadly Descents hazards, but really the only one that kind of annoys me is the oxygen hazard. Repeatedly tapping R1 got annoying for me, and I keep failing those challenges. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? I don't know. There's also an insane amount of mountains. Around 30, with 159 drops (some of those are for the PS3 exclusive mountain Mt. Fuji). Edited February 29, 2012 by DukeOfPwn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know. Think you're just supposed to tap R1 every once and a while down, not the entire way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that I think of it, I might have gone through all my oxygen by repeatedly slamming on the button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P4: Gritty Reboot Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 Bah, never been able to get into this series. I always skipped over the Gamecube versions, and the one Wii game I bought was total crap. Now the new one is skipping all my systems! Someday, SSX... you will be mine.

Johnny Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 So did anyone else here end up getting this? I'm loving it, but having only one rival for the explore mode isn't exactly ideal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luftwaffles Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 I picked this up today and oh my god it's fantastic. Controls different than the old SSXs, but still really nicely. Definitely going to be playing it some more. So does anyone besides Johnny and Duke have it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 I don't think anyone else here plays it currently. Would be awesome if they did, but they seem to be busy playing bad games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleven Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 So, did you get a PS3 for this, Sporkwaffles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luftwaffles Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 So, did you get a PS3 for this, Sporkwaffles? This + Journey + Red Dead Redemption. Sort of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
