SSX - A girlie girl's perspective

by levda , Dec 10 '00
Pros: Exciting and realistic
Cons: Can't stop playing!
Yes, it's true, I am a girlie girl. I love my flowered bedspread, my floating candles, my endless array of picture frames. So, when my boyfriend got his Playstation 2, I was skeptical, to say the least.

FS 900 Misty? Only In SSX.

Well I’ll be darned. SSX is, without a doubt, the best PS2 launch game. It makes great use of the PS2’s power to create a terrific game. Not only that, but it’s...

Another gear in the PS2 hype machine

As many of you know, I recently spent most of the money I earned this summer on the Playstation 2. So far, I’ve been pretty happy with it. I only had money to buy one game with the PS2 because of its giant price tag (I know $300 isn’t much for those of...

A good snowboarding game?!?

Pros: The greatest extreme sports title ever made. Long live PS2!!
Cons: Very, very occasionally, the AI can be a little cheap
With all the hype surrounding the PlayStation 2 launch, quite a bit of curiosity was building around what the must-have PlayStation 2 launch title would be. Many thought it would be Time Splitters. Others thought it would be Madden 2001....

With fellow ePinionator Alkaiser I was able to sample import PS2 titles, most of which didn't really impress me. When I got my Playstation 2, the first game I played on it wasn't a PS2 title at all: it was Final Fantasy IX. I...

SSX - Don't believe the hype

Pros: Nice graphics and sound
Cons: Colission detection errors, bad controls, too much junk on the maps
SSX is a snowboard racing game from EA Sports. It has received all kinds of great reviews and praise, but I honestly don’t see what all the fuss is about. SSX tries to be the snowboarding answer to the Tony Hawk Pro Skater series of games, but fails...

A Snowboarding Title I Actually Want To Play

by nhan26 , May 25 '01
Pros: Minutes to learn, a lifetime to master--but fun during the whole journey.

Snowboarding?!? I thought I wouldn't care about this game, but my ex-coworker (who leads a charmed life) bought SSX in late 2000 and there were two discs in the box!!! His life was charmed even further when he sold me one of those discs for $35....

Sick, Dope, and Tight.. The PS2 Poster Child Game

Pros: Extremely in-depth, an insane amout of possible tricks, major time killer, would make Tony proud
Cons: Difficult from the start, some collision detection bugs
When a game comes out and everything gets compared to it, that means you created a standard. For the past year, every extreme sports game has been compared to Tony Hawk Pro Skater, which is an unfair comparison to snowboarding games since they should be...

SSX Sells.

Pros: Atypical racer gameplay. Amazingly detailed courses and impressive tricks.
Cons: Annoying announcers and daunting controls.
In the name of all things "extreme" comes SSX from EA. Actually, make that "EA BIG"- it seems the names EA or EA Sports couldn't quite convey how hardcore this game is. All ribbing aside, EA really does deserve to call the game "hardcore", "BIG", or...

I used to think Cool Boarders was fun and Rippin’ Riders even better, but Sony Playstation 2’s SSX blows both of them out of the ~frozen~ water. For about the price of a day’s lift ticket at some resorts, you can buy SSX and snowboard to your...

I wanted to hate this game

by Chris_Maverick , Jan 01 '01
Pros: Graphics, Gameplay, Sound, "Wow" factor

Fun..but could be better

by dus10 , Jan 21 '01
Pros: Graphics, Sounds, Music , Physics
Cons: Terrain layout sucks, too many weird and stupid obstacles
An okay game all in all. The graphics are astounding and the music and sound phenomenal. The physics model is really good and the player movement close to life like. The game controls are easy, except when trying to do some of the harder tricks, then you...

SXX is great

by m1m2m4 , Apr 22 '01
Pros: Great graphics
Cons: hard levels
Loved the way there are many boards and many people. the levels are hard but the reality and the excitement you get from the jumps make you want to play the game over and over again. In the snow you can see the snow tracks left by other boarders. you can...

Pros: Excellent Graphics, Very good control, Easy to play, Very fun!

The Worst Lunch Title So Far

by mikemvv , Oct 28 '00
Pros: None I Can Think Of
Cons: The Game It Self
Do not waste your money on SSX for PS2. All I hear is that this is a must have game over and over again. I really didn’t want to even play it but I went out and rented it just to see. I knew I wouldn’t like it and I was so right. I had some friends of...
