SSX Goes Retro with Tricky Trailer


EA Sports has released a new trailer for their upcoming game SSX (previously SSX: Deadly Descents) featuring a remixed version of “It’s Tricky” by Run D.M.C. There is no word on whether the song will be in the game, but the trailer is a throwback to SSX Tricky, an earlier title in the series.

SSX was originally being marketed as a grittier version of the past games, but with this video, it seems EA Sports is finally showing fans the humorous and over the top gameplay that they have been accustomed to.

SSX is scheduled for release in February, 2012.

    Exactly Kenny. That is what made it unique. Hopefully they keep the same spirit as the PS2 games.

    By allowing you to land on enemies, crushing their skulls!

    I don’t think I’d get this now, but I used to love it when I was younger.

    Looks cool though.
