Hi John, thanks for posting this. I worked on this game as a 3D artist when I was with EA, I also worked on Tricky, and the ill fated SSX on Tour. So cool to see this again, brings back a lot of good memories. Hopefully your video inspires people who have never tried the game to check it out. Thanks again.
eh, SSX OT wasn't as bad as many hardcore fans say. it just took the series a slightly different direction, and so was hated just on principle.
iansteelmatheson tbh..I love both, amazing soundtracks unique in their own way, the Og characters were still there just as adversaries to overcome. Both were great..now blur was shit
Thank you for your work/contributions. Love the SSX series. Bought SSX3 digitally day one when it was available on the Xbox One X. The art your team did has held up so beautifully.
Thanks a lot for that, SSX3 was a huge passion project for the team at that time which is why it turned out so good. I still have my copy of SSX, Tricky, 3, and On Tour for the ps2, couldn't bare to part with them even though I sold my ps2 years ago.
malcolm341 Historical artifacts. Hold onto them tight. Have always been dying to ask an artist/developer this question. When you were working on this game, could you have ever imagined in your wildest dreams that it would be rereleased 15+ years later, running at 4k on a totally different piece of hardware? How crazy was it to watch this video? What's the feeling like that because of the work the Xbox back compat team did, your work will live on in the Xbox ecosystem (digitally and on disc) forever?
One of my ALL TIME FAVORITE GAMES on any system. Thanks so much for covering this!
Same!
@MetalJesusRocks Another one of your "hidden gems" eh Jason?! 😃
METAL JESUS ROCKS 🙏 🙏 🙏
They killed it with this game back then so damn good
@Tyler Neal The only game series that really really really deserve a remaster.
I miss games like this ,early 2000s were some fun times
Now it's just about realistic physics, graphics and loot boxes.
Yup. Those were the days.
Janne Laitinen And most these days, are just one style. Third Person Action Adventures.
Heck yeah
GCM PRODUCTIONS
It was the best time for gamers.
There's something so honest about this game. Its just good simple fun. Back in golden era of gaming.
There was something liberatory about boarding in the open world, picking up that sweet money. Unparalleled game.
Yeah it was the time of no one looking for cash grabs and external/internal uses of monetary gain. Just ppl who wanted to make a great sequel and sell just that singular game
I wish we still got games like this. It's like EA just doesn't care to publish stuff like this anymore. Same with Skate xD
AFarCryAway Yeah i wish they would release a new skate...or i would even love a remaster for ps4 and xb1x and PC. But i dont know why they dont want to make it happen even with the demand of the community... so SAD.
Def jam Remaster 👍
Skate is X Enhanced
Mate, don't mention the Skate series... It's not like I spent my entire highschool life playing all 3 of them to death... It's not like I wish for a new one or a remaster almost daily... oh how I miss the Skate series.
AFarCryAway jet set radio and all
When games were games and not ‘services’.
Ryan Gosling most Indie games are games sure, but they often don't have the tight design and production values that a larger studio under a big publisher will have, when dealing with games attempting to live up to 2000s-era titles.
big publishers meanwhile, want everything to be a damn blockbuster with microtransactions and in-game purchases up the wall.
if SSX 3 were released today, rider outfits and board designs would be paid DLC, there'd be a frustratingly slow progression grind that you can "choose" to pay extra to accelerate, and it would shoehorn online components all over the place constantly interrupting and taking you out of the singleplayer experience.
there'd also be a long tedious unskippable tutorial sequence
Modern games are better than old games. This is coming from someone who had a huge PS2 & SEGA library. I’m currently enjoying Dying Light on PS4 Pro & the game is great 👍🏻
Mlordy good for you bro👍🏽
When gemas were games and not movies
or Movies
This is defintiely one of the best games ever made, would love to see them bring it back again!
True. But, it is on the Xbox One store. Check it out.
They did and this is it
This might actually make me go buy an Xbox One X.....Loved all of the SSX games and the first one is still great.
halcyondaystunes wait til you see Red Dead Redemption's video. The old game now in 4K on 1X
You can emulate this for free lmao.
Here come the Xbox naysayers.
Is it that funny you fell about laughing your arse off?
halcyondaystunes Don't. $500 is not worth spending on a machine that only plays old games and a bunch of mediocre multiplats that plays only slightly better than the pro.
im gonna cry
Pussy
same
Chill it happen to everyone.
vs
Me too. 😢
5/13/2018 is the release date.
back when ea really pushed everything. i miss games like this. this game, def jam, need for speed underground 1 and 2, thug 1 and 2 (i know not ea) all great games of that era
1:20 "one of the best snowboarding games"? You mean "the best" damn snowboarding game!
Yeah SSX is THE BEST snowboarding game I have ever played...
Steeep.
@@Avery-hb2ip 😂 good joke
Thee
"The best snowboarding game"? You mean *The best god damn game ever*
The Xbox team have truly outdone themselves. Making backwards compatible worth a damn and putting more value to the Xbox at leaders making me want to get one someday
Three generations worth of games to play especially if you never owned a Xbox console before and that is a experience that no other console is doing right now so major Cred for them to that
RANDY TYSON I have to admit it is great they are doing backwards compatibility but I wouldn't go out and buy one just because of it. All of my old games are for the PS1 and PS2. Getting one would be pointless.
*Game Now*
Man I'm still pissed with that shit port of jak 1 that they did on ps4... These mother fuckers didn't even give us the ps3 remaster..
AZI THE MLG PRO Yes, I heard about that. I refuse to buy those digital ports and I refuse to pay a subscription for PS Now. I want to be able to play the disc versions of the games that I have.
Although I love this gem of a game, I buy new consoles to play new games and have NEW experiences
All Kindz of Gainz congrats. Some like both.
SSX Tricky and 3 were the best.
nah 2012 is
Da'Bones fuuuuck ooooffff lol
Hell yes
Da'Bones Hell no
Mordecai Walfish Yeah the game play was solid and the story of sorts with characters made it come alive
I'm kinda surprised at how well this games art style has held up. 15 years and a 16x resolution bump later and I'm still like, yeah this game looks ok.
Craig Kingdon or...you are kinda surprised how little steps of graphical evolution happened since then.
Because people buy & consume almost every shit, as long as they are "entertained".
Tyler Durden lol, graphics are vastly superior nowadays, it's just that ssx 3 did a great job with the little it had
Tyler Durden I think you dont know what you are talking about.
Tyler Durden ok...go look at this and then look at a modern Stylized game like Ratchet and Clank which looks like a borderline CG film on the PS4 pro and tell me again how little graphics have changed
David Restrepo small step compared to "Graphics from 2003 - Graphics from 1988".
Retro gaming is so hot specially at 60 fps,god bless barkward compat
That moment when 6th gen games are started to be considered "retro". Oh man we're fuc*ing getting old lol.
It's awesome!!! One of my favorite games of all time!!!😭😭😭😭
Adam Hollingsworth so truee! I'm so sad i don't have xbox rn :'(
Adam Hollingsworth I agree. That along with the Prince of Persia series
Same here :/ I'll call it the ssxbox
That you cant play on PS4, as always
Microsoft is doing an stunning job with the backwards stuff
nastybeard Yeah there are many nice titles, but still missing many of the most wanted games to be compatible. Like previous Forzas, gta, BF.. but they have done a great job though!
True, but, it'd be nice if they put that kind of effort into, you know, making new games...
Well I got Conker L&R and that's literally all I came for, so I couldn't be happier! :D
samurai641 do you have xbox?
LOL.
better than STEEP
BAYDROID ! Games/ Movie/ Review why you gotta throw shade at steep like that :(
Steep still good though
Just wish Steep had an arcade mode
because steep isn't nowhere near as good as SSX3
sadly, ye
Genuinely considering getting an Xbone X just for this and Red Dead.
If you can afford it, why not?
Name same here
It’s 450$ here where I live
I know right like I already have a Xbox One S and PS4 but these oldschool games looking so buttery in 4K is really making me consider getting a One X instead of the PS4 Pro. If Sony doesn't do a custom Red Spider-Man PS4 Pro bundle then I'm going with the One X.
Lol I did for red dead!
Just cracking this game, loved riding the WHOLE Mountain, took what 20-30 mins to ride down?
OMG YES! Cruising to all the tunes while doing so
Jet.
Set.
Radio.
FUTURE!
Intelligenz Bestie they gotta add that asap!!
rumor new jet set games on e3 2018
like almost every other year. I remember the House of the Dead: Overkill devs made an Alpha for a new JSR on the Wii, then SEGA said no.
Tony
Hawk's Pro
Skater
2X
Fly......Like A Butterfly
(That's Nice)
It’s great to see how many other people share a love for this game until this day! It makes me happy to know that people will be playing this game for a long time
Seeing those dnL billboards brings back some serious nostalgia. I miss this game. Lots of good times.
One of the best soundtracks ever too. Still the soundtrack to my snowboarding trips.
Back before I had Live... man the amount of time I went down those slopes and found the hidden routes, doing the loop de loop at the end of snow jam... all to get the skeleton Griff outfit. Also the voice overs between tracks and the absolute bop of a soundtrack that I still love to this day. What a time to be alive.
The soundtrack really killed it :D
Feels a review and not merely an FPS analysis. 1x actually increases a game library with bc offerings.
For the gamers.
Yea, John puts in his opinions more often than the others. A bit weird, but I generally like it. It's like a mix between the normal videos and the retro series, and I like hearing his passion for it
It is nice!
All that zooming in to count pixels or nitpick on texture filtering or whatever gets boring after a while.
Yeah, if it were just FPS and resolution metrics it would be a dull video to watch and to make thus why I go with this style. I love to talk about the games I enjoy while still focusing in on the technical detail!
John Linneman you responded!
I bet the sheer of this title brought this out. Majority of vids are are technical stuff. I like that but keep with this style.
This series is timeless I was playing just yesterday with my buddies and it was their first time playing it and they got hooked ! Been playing this since I was in elementary school, I’m 29 now lol
Nostalgiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
AFarCryAway taco hemingway
Saw this video years ago and FINALLY got ahold of an Xbox One just so I could play it! It's glorious 😍 while everybody else is getting their PS5 and Series X, I'm here revisiting 2003 in 1080p 60fps!
One of the most slept on games of its time and low key one of the best of it's generation.
I still can't get over how awesome the original XBOX backwards compatibility is on the Xbox One S and X. Thanks for taking a look at this one.
it works as good on a regular but no sexy xbox one as on the one S, you are just missing on the HDR implementation on some Backwards compatible games... depends on the TV set u have.
I legit want an XBONEX just for these back-compat games, Sony what are you doing!?!
Releasing new games? Don't misunderstand me, I want back compat games as much as anyone else (Ninja Gaiden Black, Panzer Dragoon Orta and now this are starting to tempt me) but can you seriously say "Sony what are you doing!?!" two weeks after the launch of God of War?
Welcome to Valhalla i mean look at the comparison... " pays $500 to play year old games "... vs paying $300-$400 to play awesome new games that push the hardware and change the landscape of exclusives... neir, yakuza, persona, horizon, Detroit.... i mean nintendo has been doing backwards comp for years... it's a cool feature that's meant to be in the background... only reason Microsoft is pushing it is because they aren't giving their fans any new ips because they have little to no in house studios... and nostalgia is a powerful tool soo its a win for them... " YAY we get to play black ops 2 on your xbox one... sony officially just lost"... yup they definitely did... thier fans get to play the last guardian, bloodbourne and god of war meanwhile we get to play black ops 2
sony makes great exclusives, and i love them for this only reason, the rest for me is better on xbox one from the after sales services ( sony's one since the ps1 is a mess in europe really )
but the issue with sony is that as a Japanese company they do not really listen to the feedback for their community like Microsoft does, because the way nintendo , sony and all Japanese company that are distributed all across the world is in fact totally different compared to Western compagnies... it is a shame but it is the way it is... until now
SAME!!!! lol
This was absolutely my favourite game on the PS2, and IMHO the best of the series. Just for the casual coolness of the DJ they have in it. I never got tired of listening to him. I wish they would re-do this for the PS5! :)
OMFG! Didn't know this released on the XB1X, gonna buy it today! I found part 1 in a local game store about 2yrs ago.
MasterMITSURUGI Xbox has no games
pc Juggalo ???
What is the thing they are analyzing in the video then?
*I’m just glad that I was able to grow up with the original Xbox. Games were so much better back then. So artistic and creative. Now, it’s just all about $$$.*
I never had this game, but my best friend had it. I just bought it. Best $9.99 I've spent so far this year.
i played this game when i was a little kid, spider man 2 and tony hawk underground, the simpsons oh and the lego star war games, these were golden times for games on xbox and playstation
Yessssss
FREE remaster. TY MS.
Still my favorite SSX game, although I do love the reboot from last gen quite a lot too. I didn't know the bump on Xbox One is that good, I will try it out right away. Now I just hope Burnout 3 will become backwards compatible very soon as well!
DNL 7up bill board who remembers!

Make 7up yours (get it eh eh) god i remember that commercial

SSX Tricky has such an important place in my memory. I was 18, and it was one of the first games I got with my Ps2.
3 was a great, great game, which I loved, but Tricky, man, so much nostalgia.
Although I personally feel like Sony has been the superior platform this generation in terms of quality console exclusive titles, they really could take a page from Microsoft's books when it comes to backwards compatibility instead of recharging us for games we already own on the PlayStation store.
I can understand their reasoning with PS3, but it pains me to see that they can’t leverage their PS1/PS2 library on PS4. Two of the greatest consoles of all time and they can’t even give decent support on PS4.
Next gen will place a higher priority on backwards compatibility, with digital libraries, Games as a Service and the x86 architecture, so there’s no excuse.
RedDragonGamingHD I agree 100% but that is also business suicide because the architecture of the PS3 was infamously very different & difficult to program. This is why the very 1st version of PS3 ($600 which I paid for) had a separate hardware chip to be able to play PS2 games. This was quickly removed to lower the price of the PS3 to compete with XBOX 360.
Sony's way to fix backwards compatibility is to charge you $24.95/month to stream all the older games through their PLAYSTATION NOW service which to laggy and significantly pricey. This is said to be the future of gaming.
I kept my PS3 console to play PS2 & PS3 games in all its glorious 720p resolution on my 4K monitor.😭😭😭 I'm not going to throw away $600.
To be fair you do have a point, the Cell processor in the PS3 is infamously difficult to develop for, let alone emulate (although the PS3 emulator RPCS3 has made great progress over on the PC). That said, that same excuse isn't valid for their older library of PS2/PS1 games, which have been emulated fine on other platforms for years. Even the PSP can play PS1 games. Its understandable that they're a company and their goal first and foremost is to make money, but surely they could allow owners of the disk free downloads like on the Xbox.
Yeah I completely agree, they may have valid reasons in not provding backwards compatibility for PS3 games but IMO they have no real excuse other than greed for PS1/PS2.
Adam Hollingsworth Crazy to pay for PS1/PS2 games which you will never own.
Only the real OG peeps remember this.
This game brings back memories playing it on my PS2. What a game!
This is a real SSX game. I kept trying that reboot trying to that feeling of Tricky and 3.
I miss EA Big. SSX tricky, NBA street were fun sports games.
As a kid, SS3 was basically my favorite game of all time and probably still is. I still love it to this day and I'd play it pretty much daily if I have the ability. This video hit me hard. Thanks.
The memories man waking up early in the morning and playing this before school starts
The gameplay holds up so well. SSX Tricky and SSX 3 are both amazing games in their own rights. While not as many liked SSX On Tour, I still enjoyed it. I play all of these games on PC from time to time thanks to emulation. Got the original discs as well.
SSX 2012 does not really feel like SSX. It is a decent enough snowboarding game, but even with classic controlls it just did not feel as satisfying to play. It lacked the visual pop of the stylised tracks. It lacked force behind impacts. Railing was made easier with rail magnetism. Making mistakes was not as punishing etc... It's jump to photo-realism and simplifying already simple controls did it no favours.
Not saying the game as a whole was easier. There were tracks that was difficult to do, at times being rage inducing even. You know what? I think I am gonna dig for my PS3 and refresh my memory on SSX 2012. Because right now I am critisising a game based on years old memories.
"I'm one step ahead in the game" -SSX 3
Finally, the full potential of this game has been unlocked by new hardware - Happy Days!
Recently got a One X and half the reason was backwards compatibility.
My prediction (and hope) is that back compat will be a big deal next gen. Would love to see Sony make a similar effort.
Not sure about Sony, but I'm certain Microsoft will make BC a huge marketing point for their next console. After all, Microsoft isnt making much/any money off of making these old games compatible. It must be for the future. The next Xbox will likely be able to play OG, 360, and One games.
Not quite right to say they don't make anything, many of them (at least the "enhanced" ones) are for sale on the Store and some have been rereleased physically (like GTA4 and Red Dead).
Anyway, I'd be really disappointed if the PS5 isn't at least fully backwards compatible with the PS4. Would be a deal breaker.
MortonSeinfeld True True. But they do make $0 off of people who still own the original discs
Remember Sony bought Gaikai for $400 million at the beginning of this gen to re-purpose their cloud streaming service to PSNow.
If they stick with an x86-64 architecture all current generation games should run natively on the next Xbox and PS5, with no emulation. The only reason they wouldn't is if they are arbitrarily blocked off. There's no telling what Sony is going to do as they are the market leader and have no real incentive to include these kind of added value features, but it's almost assured on the next Xbox.
Backwards compatibility is just incredible. Every game they add never ceases to amaze me!
Bought this day one on the oneX 😎
Is the only thing to do....play X360 games Hahahahahaha!!
Can't agree more.
what's the point if you have power but you can't put it to good use?(There are only a few good exclusives on xbox and by releasing them on pc Microsoft fucked up)
Lucky for me I already had the disc ready to install day one
I_Am_SamIII Exclusives were a thing 20-25 years ago, nowadays they don't matter. Get with the times.
Using Kaori? Ah, you too are a man of culture I see 😎
Was already impressed but that "loading" game bit that didn't exist takes the cake :P
I used to play SSX3 on the Gamecube when I was 5. Just bought it last week for the xbox 1 and replayed it. It was somehow even better than i remember. One of the only games that actually held up to my childhood love for it
92/100 metacritic. Good game.
Yoidze Xbox has no games
The visuals honestly look incredible with the res bump, it holds up really well.
When a company gives you the remaster for free
I'd love to see Project Gotham Racing running on the XB1, but who has the final say over the PGR rights now that Bizzare Creations are no more?
Ross M yea. It's quite possible that there is no way to bring it back at all. Phil Spencer has alluded to it maybe being impossible to bring back games that legally don't have that entity
Cyrribrae:
That's what I'm fearing, plus it might not be on the list of priorities for BC, which would be a pity as PGR and its sequels are a worthy series now fading into obscurity.
Ross M haha ft just GM lol. Pad to get out and I
Published by ms game studio then hope lives.
I think with PGR it's an issue of car and music licenses working together to make it impossible. I've been begging for the PGR games and I'm sure they've tried in the background but, alas, legal stuff gets in the way. :(
You have to admit the Xbox backwards compatibility program is genius.... keep up the excellent work !!
Is this game only backwards compatible with the digital download or can I buy and run the Xbox disc version???
PLEASE help! I can’t find any info online.
You should be able to run it with the disc as well, there shouldn’t be any problems. Hope you got it sorted out though.
xbox one X. you are slowly becoming the greatest thing in gaming history.
Great video .. thanks for posting. Brings me back to the amazing times our team had making this one.
Was blown away by this 4K upgrade on my XOX. Problem with most of the BC original Xbox games is that they are not in widescreen like SSX3 is. Shame
Exactly wht I was thinking when playing Conker Live & Reloaded. XP
JTB adjust the aspect ratio on you tv
Not hard to manually change the aspect ratio in the tv settings
omg, that music at the start! Brought back all the memories instantly
Never played the game, generally not my thing, but I'm grabbing this one!
The back compat team are a huge benefit to those of us that play on xbox, especially the X.
Plaything it through now on my Series X. Playing in 1080p widescreen at a locked 60fps really makes you forget how old the game is, and just lets you enjoy the game. And that's why Backwards Compatability is a good thing. And loading is almost instant.
Would love a remake of Ssx: tricky as that was my fave
You have no fucking clue how many people want this!!!
mine too! we played the crap out of it! we were in a friend group who played the game a lot on afterparties and we where reaching the 2 million scores and very proud of it back in the days. you could go back on the rails and play sections of tracks multiple times. awesome game!
Hell yeah dude
Eastyy Tricky was fun for it’s time. I played it all the time when it came out but in today’s time and compared to 3 it’s actually pretty lame.
Moses Saintfleur tf? Me and my friends still play Tricky all the time
Your point about nailing the peace and tranquility of carving the backbowls of a mountain alone with just your music to keep you company was spot on. What all of us riders love the most about the mountain. 🖤🤘
Man, this game is simply awesome
I saw this thumbnail in my recommended sidebar and IMMEDIATELY went to the Xbox store and got this on PRINCIPLE. Seeing this game that I kept my original Xbox for to keep playing it because the slim version kept failing on it and when 2012 came out I retired my SSX 3 disc. Well it's a HOF game now and I'm gonna enjoy running back down big mountain to that epic soundtrack. This was the PERFECT SSX game.
me form the future. I still play SSX 3 and it's so perfect to this day!
Love the backward compatibility feature on my 1X. I play more backward compatible games on my 1X than I play anything on my ps4. Not hating just the truth.
Mondo, me too. One X is a gamecollectors wet dream
You kinda sound like a brand rep. You know you can just buy an OG Xbox for a fraction of what Pro and X costs, right? Just sayin '🙄
Micke Man yep but I'll have to play these games at 480p with poor performance, and that isn't gonna look too good on my 4k monitor. On my X I get to play og Xbox games at near 4k resolution with near flawless performance. Plus I can stream and capture video of these games straight from my X, and I also get to play them with my elite controller.
Og xbox works just fine, i can play this ssx tricky, otogi 1 and 2 Jet set radio, PGR4 2, lets see og xbox 900 plus games or xbox one less than 20 games🤔 and a real gamer doesn't complain about what resolution these games run at😁
toppdogg2k17 how would you know what a real gamer thinks? Having smooth performance and a clear image makes gaming more enjoyable
My brother and I love this game during the PS2 days. I could considered it to be the best snowboarding game of all time. I chose the character Viggo while my brother chose Mac.
Love My X💙💙💙
The SSX3 soundtrack still gets regular play in my main Spotify playlist to this day :')
Can you do an original Xbox Ninja Gaiden DF retro? that game is a technical marvel and i think people would find it really interesting.
Gramsci It's too bad that only Black works on the XBone, and not the original release of the reboot. =(
Never played either, but I thought black was considered the better one.
Black is the definitive version for sure. Once you play it, the other versions aren't really worth it.
UubrMan X yeah original is what i got.
NGBLACK is easily the best looking BC game on One to date. I hope they make 2 BC to.
The nostalgia is strong with this video..
I still have the PS2 version of this game, but I'm playing it on an emulator on my PC instead! Full 4K support
Sweettttt
That looks better than some modern games lol
Its because modern games had to.go realistic with all the power...this game used lighting tricks to make it look pretty
Better then Steep.
I know this video is 4 years old but I absolutely love how John just grabs my inner nerd and talks about rendering resolution and everything that goes into the geometry like I could listen ALL DAY.
There really should be a GameCube in that opening guys..
Ha, yeah, I meant to film it but got sidetracked and only realized after the lighting had changed and I put my camera gear away.
Classic
OH GOD ... my favourite all-time game. I'd forgotten how amazing it was. *Thank you so much!!!!*
If they do similar with TimeSplitters then I’d consider buying an Xbox One X.
Ask Crytek. They own the IP. Oh wait a minute they're dead.
crewmate
They are not. Hunt just got released.
coderkind timesplitters would be epic. I had that on release day on ps2 and omg was it good. Recommend from my old local shop which is now dead 😢
Time splitters were amazing aswel I love those game the style is similar to ssx
coderkind Timesplinters has 2 missions as a Easter egg In Homefront the revolution
I'll to be late on my work today because of you man. Just can´t stop watch. Fenomenal content. Thank you!!
Great content in terms of console performance comparisons. But how can someone possibly play ssx 3 without doing uber tricks? So frustrating to watch >_
Ha, yeah, I'll be honest...the Xbox controls took me for a loop. I'm used to the PS2 controls and a lot of things were shifted around on the Xbox pad. In particular, I kept slamming the boost button in mid-air which initiated a trick causing me to crash. Only complaint with this version (though learn-able).
great review and style. great job john!
It’s sad that games like this are a thing of the past. All these big companies are busy chasing the big $$$$$ making Destiny clones and games as a service. Its good that we have such a healthy number of awesome retro games being brought back to a new life on the Xbox One.
Dash Rendar yeah and these games are a huge part of gaming history, being able to show my kinds what games I grew up on, and letting them get the same gun and joy from playing them is an amazing thing.
Dash Rendar name a Destiny clone
So much memories ahhh back in the ps2 days with sly Cooper, armored core, ssx, gta San Andreas. Crazy how fast time passes by
The physics, level design, and style are top tier.
We need a new SSX like SSX3, not like the shit SSX2012
I'm playing this again and its unlike any game I've played. I find myself taking to my character. "You got this", (landing a big trick)"get there psymon", "are you falling on purpose"
Conker live and reloaded please
The YouTUber channel "VG Tech" did a framerate comparison of Conker: IT is locked at 30 FPS and very stable on the X and the One!
we had it along sonic generations, burnout revenge on 360 and a dozen of O.G xbox titles lots from SEGA like panzer dragoon orta, and Blinx but breakdown from Namco too , and a tons of star wars games. Conker live and reloaded is the version i wanted to have on RARE replay since we discovered we had the censured N64 version, games looks awesome go check some youtube videos, it is just 4:3 but you get use to it pretty quickly... even if i wish they would release a patch to make it 16:9 , but i know on my LG Tv i can do it , check on yours , you definitely can hide most of the black bezel
Check it out now. It has been updated as well. No widescreen though.
30 min runs at 40mph = 20 miles!
Mountain is approximately 3x the size of Mt. Everest!
PS4 Pro was a rushed decision.
so was not aborting you
ZombieZifiction wow, the same can be said about you
PS4 Pro was a midgen decision for PSVR, Xbox One X was a 2/3 gen decision to show off.
VaJohn yeah they wanted to get in the VR game and handed MS the advantage in terms of hardware but still a risk worth taking because it doesn't really hurt Sony because MS still lacks exclusives
VaJohn no it wasn't.
Great Video. just bought this off xbox live for about 3.29. Definitely Worth It!
You didn't even make one Uber Trick.
backup368 let alone a super uber!
This will be missed by many around tht era was the most legendary game out there ssx3 was the funiest games ever
We want this for PS4! Do you hear me Sony??!
its only on EmulationBoxOne for now
NOT GONNA HAPPEN
Not gonna happen there will launch another exclusive and people would be yay
I mean, Sony sells emulated PS2 games on PS4, so it's not impossible. But they don't seem to do much in the graphical improvement department, so it might not be much better than PS2 graphics.
PS4 is reserved for Japanese games.
I could not have said it better myself no matter how hard I tried. Especially love how you describe the calming aspect of free riding! All this time later I still love to break out my gamecube and take a rip down Peak 1 Backcountry. A masterpiece game!!!
This thing worth the buy of an Xbox X.
jac hug Try it on Dolphin 🐬
Not just this but a huge veriety of BC games, and it plays all multiplats better, plus E3 could show some amazing exclusives. Also a 4k Blu Ray player
