| Summary: Snowboard sim that doesn't take the piste!
91
Having always been more of a Cool Boarders man myself, and always living in hope they'd revive that series for PS2, I've always tended to ignore the SSX series. Big mistake. What is out on the PSP is beautiful.
It's fast, it's colourful, and perhaps more than many other PSP titles, it's rewarding. Nothing really stands out at first as easy to do. With Cool Boarders it was always so simple to pull off point racking combos, not here though. So it took me a good hour or so of play to start racking up some medals.
No detail has been lost in the courses, all with their own distinct charm and frustration levels. Each track is littered with stacks upon stacks of hidden and not so hidden shortcuts, some, obviously more rewarding than others of course!
Loadings times are what you'd want as well, nothing too long to leave you hanging around for your next race, often course runs will be looped back to back to keep the virtual adrenalin pumping as well.
Couple all this, with one of the best soundtracks i'm yet to hear on the PSP yet and for me, you have one of the best gaming experiences yet on PSP, you should be adding this to the collection very soon if you haven't already!
