PS2 Review SUMMARY and SCORE
Debbie D.  "There Is Only One Word To Describe This Game. To Quote Rahzel, A-w-e-s-o-m-e!!!!
It's A Dream To Learn, A Dream To Play And A Dream To Watch. The Characters Are So Cool And Real That They Just Jump Out At You And Grab You Practically (especially Moby---my #1 Top Guy). The Graphics Are Totally To Die For, You Feel Like You Can Just Pick Up A Handful Of Snow And Throw It At Your Least Favorite Character At The Moment. It's One Of Those Games That Is Not That Hard To Learn, But What Alot Of Game To Master. You Really Get Your Money's Worth On This One. I Love It!!!!"

PS2 Review SUMMARY and SCORE
Stephen Burrows  "When I First Played Ssx Tricky The Controls Where Hard To Get Used To [after Playing Tony Hawks Pro Skater] But As Soon As You Perfect The Grabs And The Insane Uber Tricks The Game Is Completely Transformed, You Set A New Best Score Every Time You Play A Level Giving Endless Yet Constantly Fun Last-ability.the Race Mode Is Cool With Thousands Of New Shortcuts And The Graphics Are Exellent The Character Voices And Soundtrack Are Also Cool. I Reccomend This Game Strongly Even If Youre Not A Snowboarding Fan. An Original And Exiting Game That Pushes The Playstation 2 To Its Limits And Is Much Better Than Its Rivals Like Shaun Palmers. If I Were You I Would Buy It Now!"

PS2 Review SUMMARY and SCORE
Bart Empsen  "This Is One Game I Can Never Put Away For More Than 3 Days. The First Edition Of Ssx Was Stunning But Way Too Easy To Complete. This One Keeps Me Up After 2 O'clock On A Normal Day. The True "easy To Learn, Hard To Master" Sportsgame. Ssx Tricky Has Even Better Graphics, Music, Tracks And Tricks Than The First One. The Only Downside Is The Repetitive Voice That Indicates You Can Pull An über-trick.
Great Stuff."

Kk  "This Game Roxz!!!
I'd Never Played Ssx Before, So I Didn't Know What To Expect From Tricky, But As Soon As I Put The Disk In The Ps2 My Social Life Was Ruined!
Everyday I Play The Game Trying To Get A Little Bit Closer To 100%. The Game Play Is Outstanding, The Graphics Are The Best I've Seen On A Sports Game, And The Cool Dvd Extra's Are Really Enjoyable To Watch!
Buy This Game Even If You Don't Have A Playstation 2!"

PS2 Review SUMMARY and SCORE
Jesse Dian  "This Game Is One Of The Best Games That I Have Ever Played In My Entire Life, And I Must Say, Playing Video Games For The Past 18 Years Is One Of The Things That I Do Best. I Never Really Liked Playing Sports Games Before, Let Alone Snow Boarding Games. However, A Little Trip To My Uncle's House With The Playstation 2 And The Game Ssx Tricky Made A Week Of My Life One Of The Greatest. This Game Has Got Really Sweet Graphics, The Characters Are So Realistic And The Game Play Is The Best. I Can Not Stop Thinking About This Game, I Liked It So Much That This Game Is The Reason Why I'll Be Buying A Playstation 2 In The Future. To All That Hear Of This Game, Rent It, Borrow It, Or Buy It.. Just Play It!"

Graeme Weir (graweir2010)  "This Is A Great Game. A Must Have! The Gameplay Is Smooth, And The Fun Is Immense. The Difficulty Curve Makes Sure You Can't Leave The Game As You Try To Get Those Few Extra Points On Showoff To Get The Gold Medal. The Extra Dvd Goodies Are An Added Bonus. "it's Tricky" By Run Dmc, Is A Great Song To Go With The Game As Well."

PS2 Review SUMMARY and SCORE
Leighton  "Let's Face It. Ssx (the Original) Was Insanely
Cool. Ssx Tricky Is Better In Every Single
Department. Framerate? Almost Perfect. Tricks? Way
Cooler. Racing? More Frenetic Than Ever. I Think
The Biggest Thing That Sold Me On It, Is I Now
_want_ To Unlock All The Characters. In Ssx I Was
Quite Happy To Get Kaori Maxed Out And Use Her For
Everything. But In Ssx Tricky, Sometimes, You're
Just Going To Want To Pull Off A Soul Grind. You
Need All Of Them Useable, And It Appears To Be
Worth Using Any Character. I'm Fully Capable Of
Getting Good Scores With Every Character.

Oh, And Rails Are Now Worth It. Sweet."

PS2 Review SUMMARY and SCORE
Justin Patterson  "At First Ssx Tricky Seemed Like Quite The Amazing Game. I Loved The First Few Levels And Enjoyed The Tricks Alot. Then I Got To The Tokyo Megaplex Level, Which After A Week Of Endless Play Neither I Nor Any Of My Many Friends Who Are Avid Players Themselves Could Understand Or Even Hold Down Our Lunch. Because Of This Level Coming Pryor To Other Levels, I Will Never Have A Chance To Play Those Other Levels. This Perhaps Being A Final Level, I Could Live With. Knowing I Would Never Finish The Game, But Having A Chance To Play All The Other Levels Wouldn't Be Bad. All In All, This Annoying Level Has Caused Me To Take The Game To The Local Gaming Store And Sell It To The Used Bin. My Recommendation For Everyone Is To Skip This Game, And Wait For A Real Boarding Game Like 1080 To Come Out For Ps2."

PS2 Review SUMMARY and SCORE
Stephan "the Shadow" Lancaster  "This Game Is Suber-duber Uber-tastic. This Games Is Great Fun With Redesigned Courses That Despite Some Familiarity At Times Feel Like All New Tracks. This Game Has More Attitude, And Better Tricks To Pull Off. The Uber-tricky System Makes This Game An Absolute Blast. I Give This Game Two Very Sore Thumbs Up. The Soundtrack And Voice Acting Is Top Notch. Minimal Slow Down In The Game, Faster Load Times, Restart In Middle Of Race, Dvd Extra Goodies... Great, Great, Great!! The Animation Of The Characters Is What Makes For Great Graphics For The Game, Fluid."
