Got it today, truly amazing game. I didn't think it would be better than Tricky, but it seems it is, and by quite a bit too. There seems to be an endless amount of things to do and even though there are only three peaks, each is packed with tasks to complete.

Only problem is the GameCube controller set up. It's really hard to get used to, so if you have a PS2, you should probably just get it for that.

You seem to forget that the pros outweigh the cons; not are the uber-tricks not removed, you can select which uber tricks you use for each combination, but the GBA link-up extra's, too.

It seems EA are actually going through with all these promised extra's. I may get GBA SSX 3 just to find out what they are :-D

Or not.

No.

You could do anything you could in the other versions.

I don't get this anti-Cube controller thing. Its a perfect controller....

Was the supposed "lack" of buttons ever a problem in tricky?

And the why was towards the fact that they could so easily have included all the tricks they removed.

PS2 has one more button than Gamecube. Let's say it is the Select button.

That is never used for moves in SSX. WHY?!!

Got it yesterday for X-box. It really is so much better than Tricky. It seems so fast this time round, and is much prettier than Tricky with a very solid soundtrack.

The only thing missing is a trick tutorial, not sure where that went, but otherwise, I'm very pleased with it.

Also, buy it for X-box or PS2. I ordered it for GC, but discovered that because of the GC's lack of buttons, EA had to remove some of the tricks for it, so ordered it for the X-box instead.

I might get it.

True Crime has shot up in my estimation, so thats also a possibility,

I'll be getting that soon.

Hopefully with a GAD, maybe with money. I have enough, but I can't be bothered spending it.

:-D
