SSX on tour Tricktastic!!!
The tricks are similar to past games. Except the monster tricks. There are more monster tricks now. There are simple ones which can be done over smaller jumps. And there are the mindblowingly brilliant ones which need bigger jumps.
The races are very interesting. They are often easier than the trick tournaments. And you only need to know the basic controls and the odd shortcut to do well here. But still the later races are challenging. There are other types of events aswell. There are ones where you must collect items in a limited time. Stay off the ground as much as possible. Avoid the ski patrol and so on. Now there is free ride aswell. you can go right from the peak of the mountain and take hundreds of different routes through the 14 tracks and links in between.
You can now unlock cartoon characters aswell. These characters are extremely good. All the different characters are good at one thing or another.
The graphics are mind blowing. The background looks like a real mountain range. The characters, trees and jumps are all equally realistic.
But really this game is great because for some reason it's amazing fun and is ludicrously addictive. The crazy drawings is cool aswell. You don't need to like snowboarding. You only need to like fun.
