Played each track a few more times. Still looking for those mysterious framerate problems people are talking about.

I had not played ssx in a while, it just felt weird, specially with the damn rewind on B too.
Ughzor.
Damn, any tips? I'm using buttons but my best run has only been 4.5M

Can't stand playing with the buttons, but am loving using the R stick. Now I understand why Conner says that's his preferred way to play. Just feels right.

Gold codes allow you to play online games for a day or two. They don't allow you to download demos.

I'm not an NPC. And neither are we.
Really fun, but I'm really bad at it. Do people need to be on your friendslist to show up on ridernet?

Dang soultron. You're the only one of my friends that I can't beat on Whitehorn Mountain!
Anyway, I'm loving the demo so far.

Oh wow I had no idea this was coming this week, awesome! Will definitely be checking this out.
Check OT and look at the end of it.

Does anything from the demo carry over to retail? Can't play for another...7 hours or so-go home from work, baby and wife time, THEN SSX!
In the OT, yes.

Damn, thanks for the heads up though. I hope this demo confirms my preorder!
Same. The games fun but the controls feel loose to me and I'm all over the place lol.Think I might stick with World Tour since I dont play these type of games much and WT seems a bit easier control wise plus it has Mario

I noticed some pretty major framerate hiccups going down the pipes on that huge drop on the Bulldog event.
I laughed pretty hard at this.
You should see some of the people on my list!
Bakalhau actually holds a Guiness World Record for being one of the best SSX players in the world. It's actually true and I'm 100% serious.

Trust me, I know what framerate drops look like. I hate them. But I haven't seen any in the demo other than the obvious one in the helicopter at the start. Must be more variables at play here.
Maybe it's an EU/NA thing? I've had some small hitches but nothing major, and not in Bulldog at the dam pipes area.
In any case, I'll let you guys know if there are any framerate drops this week when I get my copy.

C'mon, I know I do, but you didn't actually take that list seriously did you?
If you wanna know which players are the best, you check Merqury City's Scoreboards, not that Guinness Book. It only lists SSX3's All-Peak Jam anyway, and there are a dozen more courses on SSX3... I did have some impressive stuff on SSX3 and I do consider myself pretty good at SSX in general, but believe me, far from being the best, and the fact that I feature on the Guinness is absolutely meaningless haha.+1 on the framerate drops on the New Zealand pipes.

Don't really like the 30fps, but I guess I'll deal. But shit, that SPEED

I saw a couple frames drop on the Bulldog pipes once. I was going crazy fast and all three other riders (and their trails) were visible on the screen. But it wasn't anything that would cause me to fuck up, it was a very slight drop.

Of all the songs in the demo, that one is my favorite. I wish a the little box would pop up to tell me who does that song, like all the videos show. I guess that's not in the demo
Honestly all the songs in the demo are great. I might not use my massive custom playlist, and instead (assuming we can mix their songs and our songs on the list) I might just add a few choice cuts.
30fps with drops on the 360? Man, the PS3 version is going to be a mess.

EU PSN doesn't update until tomorrow. You should wait until US PSN updates instead.

I haven't experienced any drops, actually. Stays pretty constant.
Managed to get golds in both the demo events within an hour, looking forward to getting my hands on the full game and taking Eddie for a spin [or 20, lol]

Anybody have a list of the demo soundtrack?
Diggin' the music hardcore, and just found out my boy Amon Tobin did a song for it. Excited.
Found one: Foster the People - Houdini

I guess I won't be playing the PS3 demo until tomorrow then. No biggie. Xbox one was good and I expect the PS3 version to be the same. Excited about using a DualShock, as that is my preferred SSX controller.

Jesus. I wish I could watch a video of your line to see how you're doing it. I'd try to follow you down but you'd just leave me in the dust. I struggle to hit 2:10.
