While "SSX" offers more arcade-style gameplay, Konami wants to slam you into the snowboarder's world harder than a botched Frontside Indy.
A solid, safe and hard-as-hell choice for all your snowboarding needs.
This one made me work quite a bit, and the last time I checked, work isn't synonymous with fun.
Even snowboarding fans will find the game's steep learning curve frustrating more than anything else.
To speak plainly the action is DULL with a pace which only ever reaches the giddy heights of ''sedate'' ensuring that you'll soon share your character''s apparent lethargy - hardly befitting of the game''s extreme-sport pretensions.
Should have been an A-list title. But the steep learning curve combined with the touchy controls and unforgiving physics make what's supposed to be fun just plain infuriating.
If somehow, you are able to master the terrible control, perhaps having fun with ESPN is a possibility, though I doubt it.
