SSX

[Changeling]

* judges game entirely based on teaser announcement trailer *

Not at all, but you CAN judge the direction that the art is taking.

Glad to see I'm not the only one wondering WTF after that trailer.

Holy christ, calm down it's a teaser trailer. There's not even a second of the actual game shown. The rumors are that this is being made by the Skate team and they fucking rule. I want a new SSX so bad I'm totally looking forward to this. SSX 4 wasn't really good, leaving 3 to be the best snowboarding game released which is really insane. Amped was always blah, 1080 2 was boring, Stoked wasn't fun and Shaun White ended up being a disaster (how that happened is beyond me).

PS- Tricky had some TERRIBLE courses.. Keep that pinball shit out of snowboarding games.

Wrong. If I wanted real I'd play shaun white, or amped or some other shit. (I haven't played either).

I want SSX to be some over the top batshit insane pinball, fake mountain, theme park retard business.

The levels could end up not being all bright and nuts (or they could be, who knows) but in that trailer I saw a bullshit impossible flip like the old days and then I saw glider wings come out when the rider went off the cliff.

I doubt this game with be realistic by any means; if that trailer is accurate it will be arcade "batshit insane pinball" with at worst realistic mountain that you fucking cliff dive down.

After watching this trailer how could anyone think it's going to be realistic? 3 had the perfect mix of wild course design while still remaining somewhat grounded in reality. Monstrous mountain courses with crazy cliffs, embankments and stuff. Tricky had that bullshit level with fans that blew you up into rails hanging 100 feet in the air.

And you don't want to play the other games I mentioned, they're busted.

Honest theory:

Anyone who thinks a stormy mountain, crazy flips and gliding is going to make for a more realistic and "gritty" SSX is slanging out current buzzwords and also didn't play, like, half the levels in 3.

[FirstBlood]

If they ditch the Cool Boarders 1 & 2 control scheme (hold jump and the direction you want to spin/flip FOREVER and release to OMFGCRAZY FLIPS) I'm going to be so very disappointed.

C'mon now, the characters in previous entries were ridiculous archetypes in bright colors with huge afros and shit. Brick McBrofist looks like he got lost on the way to a Black Ops monster closet. I think it's pretty clear what people are referring to here.
