SSX Tricky 2001

Is it still worth playing?

EA Canada's 2001 snowboarding racing and trick game, for the PlayStation 2, GameCube and Xbox, and a sequel to SSX. There are twelve characters and three board types, Freestyle, BX and Alpine. Filling the boost bar lets riders take their feet off the board for uber moves, and landing one grants brief infinite boost, while landing six spells TRICKY and gives infinite boost for the rest of the race. In the World Circuit, riders you knock down become hostile in future events. Modes are Freeride, Practice, World Circuit with Race and Showoff events, and Single Event, and Showoff rewards chaining tricks and collecting multiplier snowflakes. The soundtrack reacts to your position on the track. Themed tracks and an uber trick system that turns trick chains into boost still give each run something to chase today.
