Snowboard Supercross SSX (PS2) Reviews

As far as launch titles go, SSX is one Hell of a way to kickstart a console - this is a fantastic snowboarding game that recalls the glory days of the Cool Boarders series, focusing on the player pulling off insane stunts with style and finesse. Visually, it's a solid game, although outdone by other launch titles like Timesplitters. ...  Read the complete review

I love sporting games, everything from football (my favourite type of sporting game), tennis, and since discovering this game, snow boarding.The graphics in this game are good, but could be better, and there are inconstitencies in it, but nothing major, and not anything that would put it at a disadvantage against other snow boarding games. ...  Read the complete review

Well, here I am again, dabbling with things that don't concern me. No, this review is not about a daytime pan-european quiz show, hosted by someone whose name escapes me. Instead today I am going to talk to you about a game I actually bought my hubby for Xmas, for the Playstation2. (PS2). SSX stands for Snowboard Super Cross. We had actually ...  Read the complete review

SSX is amazing. That is all that needs to be said. What you want more? There's so much detail and things going on that some of the courses can be absolutely mindblowing. I don't mean just static background objects either. Everything is interactive. SSX runs extremely fast. The frame rates are very smooth which adds to the fast ...  Read the complete review

I'm not kidding when I say that - SSX is the best game I have ever played in my life! Now I don't usually go for snowboarding games, but hey, I'm an impulse buyer, and am I glad that my hand reached for this game! You can compete in World Circuit or Single Event. In World circuit, you have at first one race to compete in. ...  Read the complete review

I have recently become a very proud owner of a Playstation. Having never had a taste of playstation 1, I decided to go for a game with which I could relate ie skiing/ snowboarding. First Impressions: I was left feeling gobsmacked by the graphics, surprised by the speed and tantalised by trick potential! Thrilling and totally ...  Read the complete review

Ok, you probably gueesed from my title that I am a really big fan of this game. I have always been a fan of snowboarding games and have played a lot of them. The constant fun of SSX kept me on the edge of my seat as I boarded through the amazingly detailed courses. The graphics of SSX make 1080 like a game from the seventies. Its eye popping ...  Read the complete review

Graphics The graphics in this game are simply amazing. Everything is very detailed. From the huge and long courses, to the insane characters. Also the fireworks look awesome. Characters - The 3D characters are very will designed, non of them just being a carbon copy of another. They are smoothly modeled and the character ...  Read the complete review

Snowboard Supercross is the first game in the line up of EA Big's "Xtreme" sports titles, and what a corker it is. Produced over two years in EA Big's Canada based studio this is the game to buy a PS2 for. I, for one, despised snowboarding games until I played on this gem of a title. The Cool Boarders series never ...  Read the complete review

You didn’t honestly think I would get down to it on the peaks, please. ...  Read the complete review

Snowboard games haven't really impressed me much until the 128 bit era hit with Rippin Riders (AKA Cool Boarders Burn or Snow Surfers) on the Sega Dreamcast. Oh how I loved that game. I was by far the best snowboarding game I had ever played and the only one I'd ever gotten into seriously. Then last winter when the PS2 hit English shores ...  Read the complete review

The PS2 launch was probably the biggest games console launch in history. At launch there was over 30 games available with the PS2. This was part of Sony's plan and their policy of quantity and choice among games in contrast to Nintendo's quality only screening. Of course most of these launch games turned out to be less than wonderful ...  Read the complete review

If you had told me a year ago that the best PlayStation 2 launch game would be a snowboarding game, I might have mistaken you for an escaped mental patient and sprayed you with enough pepper spray to immobilize a fully-grown buffalo. But alas, it's true. SSX Snowboarding is the only PS2 launch game that's truly ...  Read the complete review

WOW! Now I’ll be the first to admit that so far the PS2 has had very few quality titles (rest assured they are on the way) but let’s make one thing clear from the start – SSX is one of them. Snowboard Supercross (to give its correct title) is by far the best game for Sony’s super-console and one of the best games ...  Read the complete review

If you own a ps2 buy this now. SSx is one of the best game saround so far on the ps2. Also it was one of the first. It is great fun as great music to snow-board to and the graphics are amazing. so go and buy. You may think only i say it is good but everything from magasines to websites say it is great and you must have. It isn' that ...  Read the complete review

What a great game. You know there's a lot of stuff and nonsense talked about frame-rates, how many polygons are used to make an image and so on - and what is often overlooked is that an enjoyable game transcends all of these things. I should know having played Micro Machines repeatedly for the last 5 years despite its somewhat dated graphics. ...  Read the complete review

SSX was one of the first games that I bought for my Playstation2 console so I guess that it’s kind of strange that it has taken this long for me to decide that I am going to review it. However, the small talk grows tiresome, on with the review. SSX is an arcade style snowboarding game; so don’t expect an in-depth sport ...  Read the complete review

This game will take your breath away. It is visually stunning as well as a superb game. The aim of the game is not just to be first in the race but also to collect as many points by performing tricks and special jumps. The better your trick, more points will be awarded to you. The life span of the game will be much more than a few months ...  Read the complete review

SSX Snowboarding It is always a good day when technology finally catches up to a great concept. Snowboarding games have been around for a few generations, but now the hardware can finally do the sport justice. SSX rides right on the edge of uncontrolled insanity. It is a twisted hybrid of shortcut filled arcade racers, trick filled ...  Read the complete review
