• Summary: SSX Blur is everything you expect from the franchise, delivered in a totally unexpected way. Revolutionary controls take full advantage of the Wii's potential by putting you in total command of your skier or rider, on-the-ground & in-the-air, by translating every motion you make into the skills that create mountain legends.

  1. SSX Blur is a icy blast of refreshingly cool gaming, as you shred down snowy slopes with a Wii Nunchuk in one hand and a Wiimote in the other, watching the wintry scenery blur right by at an extreme speed.
  2. One of the best games for Wii thus far, which challenges on a hardcore level, and pays off with time and dedication.
  3. SSX Blur has its moments, both joyful and frustrating, but it winds up being a solid entry in the SSX series.

    This is an excellent game! Some advice for those struggling to get it: For the first 15-30 minutes in this game, do the TUTORIALS! The game's controls work very well, but take coordination to master. Once you've got the basics, you'll see that this game is an excellent addition to the Wii library, with very little "Waggle" controls (the worst thing about most wii games). The graphics are decent for the Wii, the gameplay is challenging and interesting, and the feeling of leaning into the turns is fully intact. The audio feedback system is great, and as always, DJ Atomica is helpful and hilarious. In the options menu, you can customize how much the motion control affects your turns. You can make it up to 100% analog stick. (The default is 50% analog stick/50 motion control). I've been playing this game with very few weeks off since it came out 2 years ago, and it's still in my top 5 for the Wii. The multiplayer mode is adequate, but limited to only a few modes, and 2 player simultaneous. The single-player mode is mesmerizing, once you've got the hang of it, with plenty of variety in riders, modes, environments, and moves. With 12 Character Careers to complete, you may be playing for a very, very long time, and that's a good thing! You're not going to be an expert the first time you try this game. In fact, if you don't master the tutorials, you'll probably never enjoy this game. The first day you try snowboarding for real, expect to spend it falling on your backside. The same goes for SSX:Blur - there's a learning curve. Expand

    Not a bad game. Controlls are an issue, I can never seem to pull of the uber tricks consistantly. I still like SSX Tricky 2 and 3 for the game cube better... After all, this is just the same game as 3 with a new harder controller. Expand

    This game has nice visuals for a Wii title, but in terms of play control is seriously pathetic. It should not be overly difficult to pull off tricks, but it is. Pass on this game. You can thank me later. Expand
