fantastic presentation, shame about the controls.

User Rating: 8.5 | SSX Blur WII
SSX has been one of my favourite videogame series', ever, so when a Wii game was announced I simply had to get it.

The game looks fantastic, some of the best graphics and sound on the Wii so far, the game is quite long anyway and the are the challenges and the multiplayer mode to try which give it plenty of value.

This game should have been perfect but the one thing has stopped it from becoming perfect are the controls. Sure you can see the interesting control scheme that EA have given it but it really takes away the fun of the game as you put every bit of effort into actually turning your rider. That is not the point of the game, the point of the game is to fly down mountains at super fast speed and pull off amazing tricks, but with the horrible motion controls you couldn't even pull off a standard trick, let alone an uber trick.

If you can master the controls then stick an extra 1.7 onto the score because it could of been the best game ever, but if you don't want too shout at the TV with immense frustration, then it is better to leave this one be.
