If you loved SSX on PS2, you are going to...wait for it...hate this game. Not sure if big troll: Menu,Tra
It already starts witz the menu before u even go on track:
In this SSX you do not jump directly into the action and have fun. Why? Because the most annoying crappy menus i have EVER seen in a game already want you to turn off the console again. Let me show you why: There is a huge globus with different regions like Alaska/Rockys and so on. You have to turn the globus around and around so it even takes several seconds until you have chosen the region you want to go. After this, you have to skip an annoying intro which comes EVERY single time u chose a region. After this u finally reach the diferrent mountains of a region. of course u then have to chose between them again. Afterwards every mountain has different drop-stations. most of the time one for a race, one for a trick event and one for a "survive" event. WHY AM I TELLING U THIS U MIGHT ASK? first because it takes u way to much time to find out which events u have already mastered, because you have to make like 100 clicks to find out. and second because if you ever liked a track so much that u want to play it again: HAVE FUN FINDING IT AGAIN!
But it's not getting better on the track:
The Gameplay is really bad and u literally die every single time so it's not too much fun to make the one and same event again and again because it's hard to master. the rewind option is a big joke, because while u rewind IN SLOW MOTION, the time goes on for the other drivers in REAL TIME!? WTF? And even if u rewind this does not say u managed the passage then. u simply die on the same place again way to often. WHY CANT I PRESS SELECT LIKE IN OLD SSX AND START FROM A "SAVE PLACE"? u will find yourself start the event from the beginning because its ipossible for u to catch up.
and talking about events: the "survive" events, are the most annoying thing u can think of. because of limited rewinds per run, it is just impossible to beat those kind of events on the first run, because u dont know the track and fall in cliffs or whatever way to often.
In short:
- Worst menus seen for a long time start to ruin the fun even before u go on track
- Event-Range is pretty bad
- Rewind-Option is a big joke
- "survive" events should have a troll face as caption
- simply too hard
- boring characters
and on personal thing: u have too much choice. - too much drivers with different abilities, all having different boards with different abilities, different accessoires with different abilities...
- tracks are so big u have to race them like 100 times to "get to know them"
- wingsuit
ill will not play this game again.
