SSX 3

"I wish I could snowboard like that."

Ok, I am going to just get in to it.

At first look

This game is part 2.9 of the 1st SSX. The game play is somewhat more real then tricky(Who am I kidding it is a lot more real then Tricky) Zoe seems to be the star of the game. But all the cute girl are here for the most part.

Graphics 9.8
For the most part the game looks like a work of art. But you know how it is when you walk past a girl in the mall really fast and you tell your friends she was a 10 and they go back to look at her and find she is missing a tooth.

The missing tooth in this game is when rocks fall they don't have the detail of the world around them. That could have been fix. But other then that it is hot(Just like that girl in the mall). Now that we got past this girls missing tooth. Lets talk about the rest of her good looks. The games SUPER TRACKS are just big. No ''fog of war'' here people. There is fog but only because you are falling from so high that it may just be low clouds lol.

Snow. What can I say found a game with better snow. Nuff said. I could say more but you have to see it for yourself.

Lighting. This game reminds me of my days when i would go out and hit the new powder.(hmm I wish ) That light is like that of GT3. Some times you find yourself looking at it saying whoa.

Sound 10

The changed the DJ so no Razail (I think that is how it is spelled). But you get a load of real songs good songs. Oh the game is in THX if you got a setup this is going sound great.

Gameplay 9.9

Right now I'll I have to say is why. OH WHY. IS BOOST also a GRAB WHY!!!!!!!!! So you are pulling off so cool move and you got your boost so you try to put so room between yourself and the pack but you don't notice you just hit a bump now you are about 5mm in the air and you are not hitting boost YOUR HITTING GRAB. Seeing that you can not land a grab from 5mm in the air BAM! And the pack is on you(Player one your bring up the rear) Other then that it is easier to pull of most tricks then in SSX and tricky.

Uber: Now you have uber you can do on rails and in other tricks. You can build up to do a Super Uber.

Super Uber: They are more like the old tricky ubers but you can stop them. Just let go of the grab.

Recover: Yes if you fall you get a recover bar hit X (on the xbox maybe it is A) So you can just hop back up. But if you lose your board you know the deal gray screen.

Overall 10

Buy it. It is great you'll be playing for days if not weeks or months. Lets not forget about playing online for the PS2. Really wish the XBOX had it also had online game play.
