Forums - Gaming - I'm worried about SSX: Deadly Descent

Yeah, the SSX formula is so simple it's nearly unbelievable that they keep screwing it up.  A game doesn't have to be gritty and realistic to be fun, all it needs is to be over-the-top and stylized.  It can still be super HD and all that while keeping that same mood (Rock Band and Dance Central are perfect examples).

They just keep trying to stuff more and more XTREME!!!! in there and it's pushing out all the fun stuff.

This is what it should look like:

Not this:

Again, more of this:

Less of this:

Ugh, I mean looking on the games site it talks about you can't get there on foot, battle the elements, and choose the gear that matters.

DO NOT WANT.

Lame. No one wants Snowboarding: Advanced Warfare

None of the S's in SSX stand for simulation. Where is BRODY?!?!?!

You guys could at least give the game the benefit of the doubt.

It's just a trailer after all.

Why?

It's going the complete opposite direction of what the fans of the game like about the game.  It would be like if Nintendo released a trailer for Donkey Kong Country set in the styles of Gears of War.

"Instead it looks we're getting more of what made the past few SSX games bad."

Aren't you implying that the game looks bad?

I'm implying that it doesn't look like an SSX game.

The name of the game shouldn't be so important.



I'm worried.  As a huge fan of SSX 3 I've been waiting for a nice HD SSX game for years now.  This trailer looks like they've gone in a wrong direction.  Obviously, I can't say the game sucks yet, as I haven't played it, but the trailer doesn't get me excited like I'd imagined when a new SSX game was announced.  So, yeah, I'm worried.
