SSX

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.

First of all, one character from a trailer. Second, he's wearing a yellow jacket and goggles in blizzard. How is that McBrofist? If anything he looks like Mac:



Seriously, it's like you guys never played these games.

I honestly can't tell if you're just trolling the entire thread.

I'm not.

I played the living fuck out of Tricky and 3. I'm familiar with the levels and all the characters, but I feel like everyone here is not. I watched that trailer again, and I don't get how such generalized opinions about the direction of the game are being made when the character looks like Mac, the area looks like Gravitude in a blizzard and the one trick it showed was completely impossible in real life. Then the guy jumps off a cliff with glider wings.

Then everyone comes in calls it gritty and assumes it could be nothing like the previous games. It makes no sense to me, it seemed like a trailer which picked a specific character and mountain look for it's audience, but those things aren't as out of place in SSX as everyone is claiming, they're just less common than the bright areas and nutso outfits. I have faith those things will return as well.

Pretend you want to build a trailer for Spike based around the last minute of this video:



You get exactly what we watched, right down to the outfit. You all need to stop fronting.

It's not Gravitude though, it's the Himalayas, and it's not Mac, it is some dew drinking fag in a squirrel suit. The story is about how these guys are trying to be the first to scale these mountains.

I'm not seeing the "mountain dew" RIGHTEOUS BRO! mentality you think you see in that trailer. The character is not dressed abnormally for what and where he's doing it. Who knows what they have planned for the gliding (probably just making even bigger gaps). Oh no! It's gray with no neon lights in sight! Big surprise when it's on top of a mountain in a blizzard. Just like many of the tracks in the previous games. I don't understand the knee jerk reactions going on. Fuck, SSX 4 had skiing in it, that's more of a WTF than anything seen in this trailer.

Maybe you missed that they named the fucking helicopter Elise. This sort of thing is common in reboots. Toss a bone to the original fans, fuck around with everything else to bring in the mouthbreathers.

If they don't fuck with the controls and if we get anything half as awesome as Mercury City Meltdown, I'll be glad to admit I was wrong.

..but you're still out of your mind if you think that trailer evokes SSX in any real way.

Fuck, SSX 4 had skiing in it, that's more of a WTF than anything seen in this trailer.

Everyone hated On Tour.

Oh no! It's gray with no neon lights in sight! Big surprise when it's on top of a mountain in a blizzard.

No shit, huh?

Rumpy gets it.

It's not Gravitude though, it's the Himalayas...The story is about how these guys are trying to be the first to scale these mountains.

This sounds so unextreme and boring. How, if at all, could they possibly translate this into an intense experience reminiscent of past SSX games?

[Mzo]

HAHAHAHA that fucking trailer! That shit is HILARIOUS!

SSX: Black Ops. Holy shit they are going to ruin this SO hard.

[FirstBlood]

Mzo gets it.
