A lot of people don’t understand the appeal of SSX. I think they look at the gameplay and quickly decide its some sort of ridiculous snowboarding simulator. But its much, much more than that. The style of the game is what sets it far apart from its much more realistic counterparts
In a lot of ways I grew up on the SSX Tricky soundtrack, it introduced me to a lot of the genres and styles I listen to today. So perhaps its finally come full circle now that the next iteration has some of my favorite artists and songs from the electronica genre. Hit the jump for the complete list!
