Anyone else looking forward to this game as much as me?? Maybe it's because I'm a snowboard junkie in real life and I'm in constant withdrawal stage when I'm not in Europe, but I am fkn psyched for this game. Been playing the demo for the last few hours, can't wait to be able to do more than the demo lets me.

Anyone know what the deal is with the release date though? Official release date was 16th of Feb, but EB and JB are saying March some time? Hurry up dammit!

I was a HUGE fan of ssx on the ps2 and preordered this one as soon as it was available.

Did it through JB. Received an email on Friday saying that they sent it already…

Should receive it tomorrow, hopefully.

Haven't stopped playing the demo either. The new game engine and control mechanics make the game flow really well. The multiplayer is going to be AWESOME.

And the nostalgia once the "tricky" music started looping…

If it arrives tomorrow I'll be jelly, isn't released in store until Thursday.

Agree that multiplayer is going to be great, I can't wait to play online! Also can't wait to try different mods, starting to get sick of this racing down the Rockies business glare.gif

SSX Review

"SSX is a terrific evolution of the series that delivers extreme snowboarding thrills like no game before it"

8.5 / 10

The Good

  • Vast, varied environments with numerous viable routes
  • Impressive visual detail and sense of speed
  • Intuitive control system for tricks
  • Adaptive music provides a terrific accompaniment to your actions
  • Great multiplayer features pit you against thousands of other players.

The Bad

  • Monetization of credits feels like a cash grab
  • No traditional simultaneous multiplayer option.

Personally, I prefer the new multiplayer system...

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
