SSX 3 for Xbox

Strengths: fun gameplay, huge tricks

Weakness: none

Very fun game, better than amped. Improves on previous versions of SSX. The mountain idea is very fun, the levels are much bigger and more fun to do tricks on. The specials are also very interesting.

SSX 3 for Xbox

Strengths: Out-of-the-world graphics, excellent sound, amazing gameplay with lots of game modes, overhauled bonus/reward system

Weakness: No XBox Live support, only split-screen multiplayer

SSX 3 has all the best parts of SSX Tricky and none of the bad stuff, and everything works amazingly well together. The graphics are some of the best on the XBox, well worth using it as a showpiece of the system, with great lighting effects, colors and shadows. The sounds and the music are equally impressive, adding into an already great game. The whole game system has been overhauled, with all...

.

Strengths: great simulation of snowboarding, awesome sense of speed

Weakness: can't change button configuration

This is a truly excellent snowboarding game and is a lot of fun because you actually feel like you're flying down the hill at a hundred miles an hour. Sometimes it's so realistic that when you wipe out after hitting a tree, you almost actually feel the impact and the wind was knocked out of you. I like this game a lot more than the other snowboarding games for the Xbox, especially Amped, which...

True, wonderful snowboarding for the Xbox

Strengths: Awesome graphics, fantastic gameplay and a snowboarding experience that no one else has been able to emulate yet

Weakness: Some of the gameplay is too similar from before

What is SSX you ask? Snowboarding to the extreme. Win races and get glory. But SSX 3 has done something that makes this experience even more fun. It gives you a whole mountain to explore, with a free roaming, open ended gameplay system. Goes places you want to, and choose what and when you want to race. Win and earn access to new areas an prizes. The aspect of the mountain is great, as all the...

SSX 3

Strengths: Nice graphics, fun gameplay, good controls, lots of unlockables and goals

Weakness: No online play

SSX3 takes everything that was great about the first two SSX games and completely expands the game by unbelievable amounts. There is so much to do and unlock in this game that you could play it for months and still not have everything unlocked. The graphics are very nice and there are some good lighting and particle effects. The mountain is absolutely huge and there's a lot of exploration to do....

awesome

Strengths: Great controller response, cool tricks, very smooth

Weakness: NA

This game is loads of fun for everyone. Normally I play very involved, deep, and slow games (FF series for example) and my family hates it since it is so boring to watch. However, when I picked up this game and started playing, the family was all around having a blast and enjoying it all the time. I've definatley had a blast playing it and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys snowboarding,...

Best Snowboarding Game Ever

Strengths: Great Controls, Beautiful Graphics, Immersive World

Weakness: No Xbox Live, No Real Story

SSX 3 is the 3rd part of the SSX snowboarding franchise which has already brought in two very good games with SSX and SSX Tricky. SSX 3 improves on the already great gameplay to make this game a must be for all action sports fans. In the game, you go through various mountains to complete races and skill competitions in order to unlock more tracks as well as more customization items for your...

SSX 3 for Xbox

Strengths: Good game

Weakness: Amped is better

This game has better tricks than amped, however the graphics aren't as good. Some of the tricks you can do in this game are INSANE. You can upgrade your character which is always fun, and change his or her clothes. All in all, if ya get a good deal--buy it.

SSX 3 for Xbox

Strengths: Colorful graphics, varied and enjoyable gameplay, a vast mountain with three unique peaks to explore

Weakness: No online play

SSX 3 is the pinnacle of the SSX series and probably the best arcade-style snowboarding game available. Unlike the previous games, SSX 3 gives you one huge mountain to conquer and lets you progress in a variety of ways. You can participate in races, enter freestyle events, tear up half-pipes, or leisurely explore the mountain and undertake special challenges. Overall, the game looks, sounds, and...

SSX 3

When EA Sports introduced SSX way back in the old days, they practically created a new genre of sports games for home consoles. Along with Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, SSX led the charge for a slew of extreme sports games. The over-the-top adrenalin filled SSX was a fresh take on an old subject – take snowboarding’s extreme feel and huge aerials and turn them up, oh… say 5 million notches. The...

SSX 3

When one looks around at the freight train of games with 2s and 3s attached to their in 2003, it seems this year could easily be dubbed The Year of the Sequel. The perception thus leading one to believe the titles of 2003 are just sequels, more of the same - same concept, more levels, extra widgets, colored goatees, etc. True, to a certain extent, this. But there are two things these short-sided,...
