9.5 Presentation
EA loosens up and brings a snow boarder’s sketch pad to life. The presentation is a blast.
8.5 Graphics
Not drastically different from SSX 3, but the feeling of speed will get your heart pumping.
9.5 Sound
One of the best uses of licensed tracks in memory, this is exactly what I want to hear while blasting down a mountain.
8.5 Gameplay
Skiing is a welcome addition but the game is starting to feel a little too familiar.
8.5 Lasting Appeal
Like other SSX titles this one can easily last over 30 hours. But where did online play go?
8.8 OVERALL
(out of 10 / not an average)



SSX: On Tour is a solid addition to an excellent franchise. Skiing is a blast even though it's not significantly different from boarding, and the rock star approach is a perfect fit. There's no question that this game is worth your money, but keep in mind that most of new content has more to do with presentation than gameplay. SSX: On Tour is a challenging racer that will rock your world, hopefully the next game in the series will add as much substance as this one added in style.

I sorta wish they kept skiing out, it just doesn't look as fun, but hey who knows, the more options the better I guess

Also I hope the 'Cube exclusive course(s?) are actually unique.

i'm not sure if i agree with them on the soundtrack. i dont see how a rock-themed soundtrack is better than the original SSX's tunes, pre EA-TRAX

sexulent. this is going to be bought in the near future i anticipate.

That thing at the bottom of the screen looks really annoying.

SSX 3 sold rather poorly, right, at least compared to the first two? I wonder how this will fare.
