SSX Tricky!

I can't believe nobody is talking about this game. I loved the original and picked this up yesterday and played it for hours last night. They went nuts with the changes to the tracks, and the overall interface and other improvements make it much more like a sequel then SSX 1.5 (IMHO). The showoff mode is a bit hard at first due to all the new rails and such, but man this game is fun.

Anyone else pick it up?

Nope, I am still very iffy on it. Yes, I know the tracks are redesigned and all that, but is it really worth the $50 if you already plunked that down for SSX?

Plus MGS2 comes out next week and I have a bunch of other games to play and beat (GTA3, DMC, Soul Reaver 2).

I hope my copy ships soon.

I never played SSX but after playing a Cool Boarders 2001 demo I knew I wanted a snowboarding game and this one looked damn_good.

THe tricks the Matrix style damera moves sold me. The fact that you can perform a cool trick and midway thur the camera will stop and rotate around you makes it well worth the 50.00.

Still waiting for mine to ship. I ordered it in the TrU 3 for 2 deal. I loved the first game and can't wait for this one. Isn't it supposed to be in 5.1 surround too?

Can't wait!

It supposedly has DTS in-game sound much like NHL 2002. It does not have Dolby 5.1 sound though...that seems to be impossible for the PS2 for some reason.

I just played SSX tricky, and it's sweet. I already own the first SSx and I would say the new one is worth the money. The tracks are about 70% new, and the new "uber" tricks are frickin cool.

I traded my SSX in for Tricky. I only got 7 bucks for it but, I figured I wouldn't be playing the old version anymore anyways. Haven't played too much yet but, so far it is way cool.
