KC Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 That sucks never noticed on ssx tricky I always thought there was tons of tricks. They should have put "reset" as a start button option then it would have freed up a button. I hate the reset button, some times I am pulling massive air and dope stunts and BAM! I hit the button on accident. Oh well it kicks ass either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bangbang023 Veteran Posted October 22, 2003 Veteran Share Posted October 22, 2003 Guess I have to pick this up tomorrow...I lost the winter of 2001 to Tricky, so there's no question about it :D haha, yeah you will definitely like this game.

GC Buttons = 7 PS2 Buttons = 10 knobs don't count as buttons in SSX, at least not in default config. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o_87 Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 Well IGN have put up a Head-to-Head. Final VerdictWithout a doubt, SSX 3 is a fine purchase or rent on any of the consoles. EA Canada did a superb job of creating a multiplatform snowboarding game. However, there are minor feature and technical differences to contend with. There is a clear winner, though. The PlayStation 2 looks great, has awesome sound, the controls were designed for it, and it features online multiplayer. There's no question the PlayStation 2 is your best bet. However, if you're a nit-picker when it comes to visuals, Xbox is the better buy because it does look better than the PS2, marginally better than GCN, and the controls are functional. GameCube we don't recommend because of the less available tricks. This slightly spoils the combo system and your ability to diversify tricks. Is it still a great title? Absolutely, with some fine visuals, but not quite as great as the PS2 or Xbox. Overall Winner:PlayStation 2 Winner Ranking: 1. PlayStation 2 2. Xbox 3. GameCube - Best version for single player: PS2/Xbox (tie) - Best version for multiplayer: PlayStation 2 (online; minor advantage) - Best version for videophiles: Xbox (minor advantage) - Best version for audiophiles: Xbox (PS2, close runner-up) - Best value/price: GCN/PS2/Xbox (tie) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acezo Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 Just read the Head-to-Head over at IGN, guess I'll have to hook my Xbox back up (I haven't been playing many console games lately, I'm going to spend about a week away from PC games so I can get caught back up) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure you do it. It fills your adrenaline bar half way up so for the first real big jump you have uber tricks available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malechai Veteran Posted October 23, 2003 Author Veteran Share Posted October 23, 2003 ahh cool gonna try that when i get home. thx bangbang! :) the other thing i was thinking of trying was starting at the top of the mountain in a freeride, and build up my adrenaline and make my way to the starting gate for crow's nest so i can bust full ubers right away. yours sounds less time consuming :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
