SSX Isn't Coming Back, So Shredders Is Your Best Snowboarding Bet (2025)

Played shredders when it launched on gamepass at the start of the year.
Started out great but the technical issues, the physics jank and the frameskip issues (not framerate, it skipped frames) made the experience horrible in the end.

Might be worth a try but Steep is actually a pretty solid entry for snowboarding

@Jacko11 Steep is awful!

As for SSX, it’s the one thing EA could do to get back in my good books, and I have a feeling they know it.

Played this on PC back when it released in March, a brilliant snowboarding game IMO, glad that PS5 players will be able to have a go at this now too 😄

I tried to like shredders, but it just didnt work for me.
Id love to see another loud and fun ssx type of title, I love them games! Although I have a ps2 and ps3 still hooked up to the telly, ive very few discs, and two of them are ssx titles 👍

I really enjoyed it. The story mode is a little irritating, but when you just go top to bottom with the chilled music and have a good run, it's really good. Definitely worth a play for those with any memories of old SSX and 1080 games.

Man, I was so, so, so excited for SSX 2012...and that game turned out to be a massive disappointment. I know a lot of people enjoyed that game but, to me, it lost just about everything that made SSX special.

Related aside, it's crazy how EA has all these beloved legacy IP they've just let straight up die for literally no reason.

@GeneJacket I’m not sure a lot of people did enjoy the SSX reboot to be honest. I have only heard bad to average things about it.

I really disliked it myself. I could get over the Call of Duty vibe it seemed to be shooting for, but somehow it just felt really easy, almost like it was playing itself. Practically impossible to mistime landings and wipe out.

@kyleforrester87 I distinctly remember thinking I was the crazy one seeing it getting really solid reviews across the board (it's sitting at 81% on metacritic), IGN, Eurogamer, and the Official Xbox Mag all give it a 9/10 and it sold pretty well.

I think hindsight is 20/20 on that one, clearly a lot of people really dug it at the time, but now it's all but forgotten.

@GeneJacket to be fair, I will only listen to opinions that reinforce my own, so there is that.

SSX 3 is one of my favourite games of all times.
Would kill for a remake.

I really want SSX back.

Trouble is I just know I would be disappointed. What made it great was it was arcadey, zany, pick up and play and had an old skool dedication to unlockables and play to earn rewards rather than pay to buy them.

It’s been a long time. I feel like if one were to be released again now, it would just be forced through the mould of contemporary trends. SSX as an irritatingly over-inflated open world game with live service content and all of its arcadeyness replaced by cash cow features? No - I couldn’t take it…

It's on gamepass so I can wait for it on PS+

Amped on original Xbox still looks more fun than this tbh.

Please just give me an SSX Tricky remaster or even just let me play the original

@kyleforrester87 can we petition like all rally for it to come back like how we are getting ps home back

@Totheteeth can we petition to get a remaster or something of if?

@Sosapocka I know if they remade it now, it would have to be ultra serious with loads of live service elements wouldn’t it. Apparently whacky and silly and super fun doesn’t sell anymore
