Over the top (of the mountain)

If there's one thing we've learned from the lead-up to the release of SSX, it's that EA's marketing budget is a bottomless pit. With about a week to go now, we'll probably see a few more videos from the slopes of SSX.Oh look, here's one now.

SSX hits North America on February 28th and Europe on March 2nd.

As if the other videos, info, and demo didn't make me want this enough already, they just have to put out more to make the last few days of waiting more agonizing for fans of the series like me

The more I read about this game and watch trailers, the more and more I want it. Really looking forward to this, day on purchase. Time to spend a bunch of hours on the demo again. Next week can't come quick enough, always been a fan of SSX titles.

Happy for the people that like snowboard games but for me personally they shouldn't have bothered trying to revive the genre..
Trying to increase completion percentage.

The demo is amazing especially the second track it's sooooo cool with the frozen dam pipes.

Does anyone no if ssx will have any type of free roam?

I think they got quite a bit of backlash for that though. I for one will take any snowboarding game offered..

This here is what you call domination. It's a combination of skill and concentration.

I've been playing the demo a ton so far. Initial impression is amazing. I do miss the insanity that was SSX Tricky though.

I won't be paying day one prices after trying the demo, £20 maybe but probably not.

That's just how I view it anyway.

The demo was great, but is the full intro and tutorial really necessary? That really turned me off to playing much more of it after my second try. Overall the game from a glance was pretty good so far.
You seem a little furious...

ok i didn't mean ultra realistic, but tony hawks v skate kind of difference would of been good.
