Just re-played SSX 3 and Tricky and I'm floored by how well they've aged. In fact, I think I had more fun with 3 last night than I've had with any ps3 game in a long time.
Re-watching this trailer also really pisses me off. Everything that was great about SSX seems to have gone out the window. SSX isn't supposed to be some dark, adventure game...but a racing game that doesn't take itself seriously. Carving down an iceberg in Hawaii, racing on snow brought to a desert, racing through a snowed-in city at night, this is what makes SSX great. The game is supposed to be colourful, unrealistic, and cartoony.
Sigh, I guess it was too much to hope for that they'd make an effort to reassemble the original SSX team for a next-gen reboot. This team clearly doesn't understand what made SSX great. To this day, SSX 3 is my favourite game of all time.
