Tricky was just so imaginative. I think the reason these games died out is because they abandoned that wacky identity. The insanity of tricky is what instantly drew me in as a kid and one of those things that just encapsulates the vibe of the early 2000s for me

the issue is that wacky/creative games like Tricky cost a lot of money, but don't sell well.

Never played Tricky but your statement seems to fit my thoughts on the og SSX in certain tracks as that did in fact surface in that game as well.
SSX 3 does a much better job in that regard, though doesn't eliminate it entirely

I have nostalgia for both, but the open world of 3 was so cool to me when I was young. Just flying down the slope exploring while listening to the great songs from that game, really worked. Also loved the halfpipe events.

Hey man, great video and analysis! I really like putting it as SSX 3 being SSX trying to "grow up", for better and for worse. A very accurate yet succinct way to put it. Honestly, the thing about these two games is that you have two games that are the best in their bracket - Tricky is the best snowboarding game to go completely over the top and oozing personality, 3 is the best snowboarding game to ever offer the complete package with a living, breathing open world. More often than not which one is your favorite seems to come down to which one you played first, and there also seems to be a link where the more you play SSX games, the more you sway towards the side of 3 because of its more polished and responsive controls.

Hi daggy and under10hours I played ssx 3 for a decade when I was in grade school and learned how to glitch teleport in metro city when I was 12 and my older sister who taught me how to play ssx 3, said to me that I was cheating and I said to her I see gamers do that all the time sis come on catch up 🤣 that game helped me with my horrible math skills at a young age because I have Adhd, high blood pressure and age 10 diagnosed with epilepsy from my mom but I still play ssx 3 til this very day even when I haven't played ssx 3 for a long time I always remember how to play without manual 😎

under10hours

3y↑10

YES! This is exactly the point I was trying to make. They both nail different aspects that are strong in their own ways.

One oozes personality and fun where the other is polished and nails the snowboarding aspect.

There isn't a right answer as to which is better because they both are so good in their own ways!

I always prefered Tricky. I felt the controls were tighter (ps2) and races were more intense. In Tricky ice felt like ice and snow felt like snow. I remember being super excited when the 3 came out and I liked the idea of open mountain. But in the end it felt somehow lonely and empty and I kept coming back to Tricky.

1080 was one of my first experiences with video games at about 6 years old. I spent hours playing it in a basement on my friend’s older brother’s N64. When I got older and had my own consoles, I picked up a used copy of SSX 3 when I was about 12. That game had amazing replay value, I played it for years. The character customization and free-world feel to the game were so engaging. At that time of my life, I was starting to get into skateboarding, and I had even gone skiing a couple of times. I always thought snowboarding games were cool racing games and button mashers, and then over the years I could actually see myself snowboarding. You said SSX 3 had a “grown up” feel to it and that was perfect for me at the time. The intensity of the big air and the single player experience of “conquering the mountain” felt so much cooler because I had a taste of snowboarding video games when I was younger, and as the video games were getting better I was also getting better irl. I felt like I could one day be like one of the characters I was playing...in a realistic way of course. As a kid that’s a great feeling. Thanks for the video review!

That's such a cool story! I was similarly interested in skateboarding when I was a kid thanks to Tony Hawk, only I stopped after I fell a few times and hurt myself haha. It's awesome that 1080 and SSX got you into real snowboarding. I love that!

I tend to be in the SSX3 camp cuz the Rivalry system scared the piss out of me when I was younger cuz I accidentally pissed off Kaori as Mac cuz I accidentally boost knocked her down on Snowdream and she wouldn’t leave me alone even tho Mac and Kaori are riding partners also Luther is terrifying as Mac. He gets pissed off if you even look at him wrong.

I loved Tricky much more... I remember after only 3 days playing SSX3 then returning it to the store. I was getting frustrated that I couldn't get as much 'air' as in the previous SSX games, and the uber tricks look blah. I too come from an area that doesn't snow... so I didn't give a shit about how realistic snow and jumps were. And I agree with the characters being so boring in SS3. Tricky was a clear winner for me.

I played Tricky on gamecube in my teens and loved it. Started playing ssx 3 for the first time this week in my Xbox series s and enjoying a lot so far, but I miss the persoanlity of Tricky. Would love to have Tricky on retrocompatibility one day. Would buy it day one.

You hit the nail on the head. I grew up playing these. Played tricky when I was 13 and fell in love with it and the series was an Eddie main. Then played 3 when I was 16 was a Griff Simmons main. Played him because he was kinda Ryan Sheckler like and I was a big skater. The party of Tricky and the Zen of 3 are a yin and yang of the peak. They both get a 10 from me

SSX Tricky was my first experience in the series. SSX3 became my favorite, so much so that I ended up buying the XBOX Series X. Apparently Microsoft is big on backwards compatibility, the game runs HD w/ a smooth 60FPS which was surprising. One of these days, some brave soul will start a petition for a new SSX game, or maybe even a petition for a remastered version of Tricky/SSX3

To me, comparing 3 to Tricky is like comparing Tony Hawk's 3 to 1. It's just meatier and more refined, gameplay-wise.

Between the handplants, rail ubers, monster tricks, and most of all the board press which allows for mountain-long combo chains, there's just no contest in my eyes.

@under10hours No doubt 3 was revolutionary for its time and Tricky kind of had that old school arcade style separate track type gameplay that people love more in some cases but 3 was a new direction that alot of people loved even more but I still think both games are absolutely incredible gems. Even the first SSX game that is PS2 exclusive was really good!

under10hours

3y↑4

That's fair. I more compare Tricky and 3 to THPS3 to 4. Both came out back to back, and both took their respective series very different directions. But I do think that the style is different enough that people will have a preference for the interconnected mountains or the individual race tracks.

Thats the best way to play 3 also. Its upscaled to like 900p I believe. Original Xbox games can only go so far but even that jump from 480i/p to 900p is INSANE. The snow looks SO REAL on a 19 year old game. I wish Tricky would get that kind of love! They are both amazing!

Great video. I played ssx3 for over a decade before tricky so I’m definitely bias towards 3. However, I think although ssx 3 for me overall is better and more enjoyable, due to the open world and polished controls, tricky is by far the better game for strictly racing. After such a long time on 3 I found it hard and still do find it hard doing tricks ton tricky but that could still be down to me being used to 3’s controls and autocomplete of tricks.

Master Cylinder

2y↑1

I was the opposite - for years I only knew Tricky, and what I'd heard of 3 even made it sound a little standard and boring (just one mountain?). Then I played it and was blown away at the constant innovation, how smooth it was to play, how areas flowed into one another, how fresh and alive it all felt. Instantly became my new favourite. I can accept the criticism that it's a little too easily gratifying though, and I still appreciate the weightiness and friction of Tricky.

under10hours

I totally agree with you about the tricks in Tricky. Since I’d never played either for a considerable amount of time before making the video, I was shocked at how different they were between games. Tricky really makes you work for the tricks and boost, but the flow of 3 feels incredibly good. IMO, 3 was much easier and more accessible to new players.

Tricky was my first experience, then Coolboarders, but SSX3 is my favorite by far. I absolutely love the immersive world of conquering that mountain. You can play freely, and just enter any competition while going down the mountain. You even get email messages from other snowboarders who want to challenge you. It's so awesome.

Both games are great imo, but in most instances I would pick 3 over Tricky just for how much more fluid the gameplay feels.

LPNP

3y↑6

100% agreement! They're both fantastic games for somewhat different reasons, but in the end they're both a blast to play. They're my two top favourite action sports games, then the skate games in reverse order, then a handful of tony hawk games. I replayed these two games last year and now I'm thinking I should do another run. Despite the limited content that only two games can offer, I can replay these over and over. The core gameplay is just that good in both.

under10hours

3y↑1

Yeah they were a real treat to play! I'd only played them in passing at friend's houses, and I absolutely loved playing both games together for this video.

LPNP

2012 is great but not as much, On Tour is a lovable mess but does not quite achieve greatness. Never played the OG SSX so I can't comment. I broke my Blur disc in half because I was so insulted by it.

Expert Manga Analysis

For the first time in adult life I'm playing 3 again. And I'm picking up on all the nuances of I always ignored. Like the challenges and using front and back leaning thing to chain together tricks and racking up a massive multiplier. Along with stuff I haven't gotten to yet like unlocking more moves and maxing out character stats.
I never played tricky or other ssx games except 2012. But the level design in tricky would make it worth to play both.

I have a friend who only played the 3 whereas I grew with SSX for the PS2 for a cheap buck almost 10 years ago, I had no memory card so every time I had to play from the ground and god, Matt was the best character, SSX tricky feels like an expansion of the 1st and it's understeandable the path that took SSX 3 because otherwise it would feel like a revisited SSX tricky, but it was sweet to see the way a snowboard track could be reinvented.

Tricky is good, but SSX is the best - the soundtrack is just amazing, the customisations are boss and all the characters from ssx and tricky are unlockable, so you’re really getting the combination of all in the one perfect game!

Good video! I haven't played either but think I'm going to start with tricky. I'm with there with Blue lol On Tour was the only one I played as a kid and I loved it.

Drewski217

13w

just ran into this video because I watched Miles Jai do a stream of tricky for Christmas and I'm glad I did. Both of these are ones I grew up playing and both have a special place in my heart not just due to the fun of the sport but the music as well. Hell I was such a fan of the series after these two I even bought that game port to the PSP (which had great music and......nope that's it lol)

If forced to choose between the two I can definitely say 3 fits more of my own personal taste. The art style of 3 worked well for me and the vast customizing potential of all characters did as well - every gold victory earning a new clothing piece in some way? yes please! - as did the structure of all one mountain and it all feeling cohesive for that reason. Not to mention that they kept progressing the backstories of the characters that returned from game to game and allowed them to keep aging, which is another plus for me.

I do think Tricky beats it in stylization and personality tho. I'm not sure if they'll ever make yet another entry into the series but I do think if they can fuze the two strongpoints of each and give us a SS3 style mountain but with more course variety and more personality that they would have another winning entry to the series. Ideally with some characters being legacy/children of some of the older champs to really tie it all together still (so long as we ignore the games after these two I mean lol).

operayl

Tricky needed to have the open world feel of ssx3. The maps are better for the third installment, while tricky had the artistic vision. Combine those, and what a game tricky could be. That's why we need a remaster!

What would you say to another game in the series that manages to pull off both strengths of SSX 3 and Tricky?

The PROcrastinator

That reason for not playing SSX when you were kids was just bizarre, quite frankly. We played games that looked fun, and the fact that we don't have any snow to board on anywhere close to the southeast of England didn't enter our minds when it came to playing SSX Tricky. Most of us played games to do things we couldn't or wouldn't do in real life, and we all had a blast playing Tricky for months and months (as well as Super Monkey Ball - something that had absolutely zero basis in our real lives).

Besides, you played 1080° and Snowboard Kids didn't you?

SSX Tricky is the game you rent. SSX 3 is the game you buy. It's the arcade versus the immersive experience. I love SSX3 more simply because it is the game you can put hours upon hours into. It is the fully fleshed out experience. That said I wish they would put Tricky out on Xbox Originals like they did SSX3. The 4K resolution bump is pretty nice too.

Tricky was better in my opinion. it had more colour in each track design, 3 was a little blend and they should of added some UBER tracks from tricky into 3. SSX 3 was also really repeative with events and the tracks werent as enjoyable. i still like 3 more than on tour tho

Funz

for me, 3 is better because its controls feels so great. once you master the game, its just the most satisfying thing out there. if you watch some speedruns of the game youll see what i mean

but yea great video man, rly enjoyed it

RobotYoshimis

In my opinion, its so unfair to compare because they are ENTIRELY different styles of SSX games. Tricky is more funky, cartoony, and arcade-ish. 3 is more realistic, atmospheric, and fast paced.

I always prefer 3 over tricky. Tricky is okay, but if I wanted to play something with as stiff as controls of it I'd go play the first game, since I prefer the tracks from that one (Tokyo Megaplex was even more chaotic, for example)

Jet Lag

I grew up with SSX, SSX 3 and On Tour. I only ever played Tricky a little bit at a friend's house, but most of the time I was more than happy just watching him play the game. Having now played Tricky a bit with an emulator, I prefer SSX 3 and On Tour over SSX and Tricky. SSX and Tricky are too punishing and too unpolished. I can never really sit down, relax and play those games the same way I can with 3 and On Tour.

I'm a slope style kind of guy. I love taking every opportunity I can to jump and perform tricks and 3 and On Tour let me do that. I also love open world settings and 3 and On Tour are my ideal visions of "open world racing". Going down all three peaks in 3 or the longest tracks in On Tour while listening to the awesome soundtracks is the best.

I didn't try Blur when it came out in 2007 but I did recently check out the SSX game they releases for the PS3 in 2012 and while it wasn't as bad as people had led me to believe, it's more miss than hit. They tried to combine SSX 3 with On Tour while also doing something new, but they just didn't nail it.

The guy behind SSX 3 said in a comment on a video about the game back in ~2019-2020 that he was working with some people who worked with him on SSX 3 on a new game that will be out in a couple of years (2022-2023 maybe?). He said that it won't be SSX, but that it'd be in the same vein. Looking forward to that!

I first played SSX Tricky but it was on the GameCube. Years later I played the PS2 version which is the best way to play it. Nowadays I'll play it with a Dualshock 4 on the PCSX2 emulator. I also have SSX3 on the PS2 as well as the original Xbox version that I bought on the Microsoft store for the Xbox One. I still think those games were better suited for the Dualshock

Harpotos

Honestly, I don't have a definitive favourite SSX game.
I ALWAYS have Tricky, On Tour, and 3 on hand, I always get the itch and they all scratch it in very different and very good ways.

It doesn't matter which is better, what both of these games do so well for me is how they capture that early 2000's vibe, mainly through the soundtrack and the way the characters dress. That's an era which I'm super nostalgic for, they were my childhood years. Since there is no time machine at least I have games like these to take me back.

Ssx3 lacks the personality that tricky has but still seems like the more 3 dimensional of the two. I always thought ssx tricky was way too easy, ssx and ssx3 were more of a challenge.

My man, it looks like you never used boost, the meter that you fill to get to uber mode or tricky in ssx tricky is also a boost meter to make you go faster 😂
I only noticed when i saw you didnt have enough speed to go up a rail and i was like dont you have any boost left 😂

JP is by far the best character in Tricky

These games are like two sides of the same coin, one side is Arcade and the other is Simulation.
I preferred Tricky because you could have a few races and jump out and the loading times were much better. SSX3 had the benefit of free roam, but you would soak up time, but not feel like you have achieved anything. They are both fantastic and I desperately want a reboot.
Dear EA.... Please just remake Tricky... then follow it up with a legitimate SSX successor

I was a coolboarders kid until I ran into tricky. Although tricky has my style and flair, I was always more into 3, I think it felt more relevant in the moment and I loved the freedom.

@under10hours though it's been a long time, so I'm not sure how it's held up technically, tonally I love Amped 3.
Its wacky over the top and fun. I'm sure some of the humor hasn't aged great, but maybe it'll strike your chord (assuming you haven't played it before)
I'd definitely check out a vid you do on that.

@poetikinjustice haha that’s a very honest opinion. I’ll keep an eye out for it! I’m always down to try some new snowboarding games

@under10hours they didn't age very well. Nostalgia goggles can help, but since you don't have those...
If you stumble into coolboarders 2, check it out, but don't go nuts try to get to it.

Coolboarders passed me by as a kid since I didn’t have the console to play it on, but I’ve always loved snowboarding (not actually doing it, but playing the games). Are they still worth checking out?

SSX 3 didn't grow up. It returned to SSX form. I actually avoided Tricky because it seemed too goofy for me.

one point you missed is the cheat characters in ssx 3. there are around 20 of them that can be unlocked with cheat codes. ranging from a cow to Sasquatch or a skeleton. they add much needed flavor to the boring character selection.

i will only say tricky because i have probably 2k hours on that in my life and i played 3 once and it just felt so,... grey like you said, little less personality for more realism. i miss outrageous games i wish that gaming didnt go so "sim"y lately

Liked the video/comparison. I think of it like:
Tricky === CoolBoarders 2
SSX 3 === Steep (you could also put 1080 here too).
I've played them all over the years but I keep going back to SSX Tricky, because eventually, realism doesn't matter to me in snowboarding games, the same way I'd rather play NFS Underground than any of the Gran Turismo games.

SSX Tricky had soooo much more character and much better level design. But the feel of SSX 3 was more fluid and the landings weren't as strict. Some tricks on SSX Tricky had to have a solid second of completing the animation to be able to land without falling. My favorite is SSX Tricky.

I was obsessed with these games as a kid. I got back into both SSX Tricky and SSX 3 a while ago. Beat them, got tired of them. I started with SSX Tricky though. I got insanely intuitive with the controls. I play kind of weird too. When I hold A to prepare for a jump, I have my thumb on the D-Pad to charge the spin and my index finger on the left analogue stick to turn my character into the jump while I'm charging. It looks weird and uncomfortable, but it's actually pretty natural. And it feels very good to land the crazy tricks.

SSX for PS3 is great but like SSX 3, it's missing the zany futuristic style of SSX Tricky.

Whoah, whoah, woah, was I the only one who did not have any issues with ssx tricky and its systems? It's amazing and I love the game better then ssx 3 because of its controls and the personality in ssx tricky ooooh I had so much fun playing this game. 10 out of 10 for ssx tricky for me. 8 out of 10 for ssx 3 for me

SSX 3 is by far the best of the series.

SSX 3 is slightly better. The thing I love about 3 than tricky is actually the more realistic tone and the soundtrack. The controllers were much better polished. I do love the arcade style of tricky and that main menu.

I would say that 3 might be objectively better than Tricky... but if you HAD to play only one game then I think you would have to go with Tricky. I feel like playing this series while skipping Tricky is just NOT an option.

You can't go wrong with either in my opinion. To me Tricky is like the juvenile adrenaline junkie while SSX3 is more laid back and more confident in its mature core gameplay. . .I could never pick between the two coz as vastly different as they are, you can tell they share the same DNA and were coherently made by developers who put alot of time and love into them

The PROcrastinator

The tracks were better on Tricky, but the tricks and combo potential was far better on 3. The fact you could snowboard down the whole mountain was great as well though - I just thought the showoff sections were too few and far between.

3 is better in all categories for me honestly, people say Tricky has better visuals but 3 really beats it out, it just has less in your face neon colours.

just found your channel and I’m subscribing right away since no one else does a lot of reviews on games that were on xbox even if they were on ps2 and gamecube too. could you do a video like this one Star Wars knights of the old republic 1 and 2. I’ve played the first and ima play the second but I would love to see a comparison video from you on it

SSX 3 all the Way. Tricky is when the series hit its stride. SSX 3 is SSX perfected. And the Nextgen/Remake SSX on PS3 is criminally underappreciated.Also... 2:05 Edging LOL XDDDD Upgrade how close you can get to Cooming without actually. You should have just gone with Elise when starting Tricky. She is a Thiccy and is pretty much cosplaying Spiderman so whats not to like

Tricky has much better designed tracks and is more impressive but ssx3 is a very "zen" experience that cant be very fairly compared. Theyre both great but I think I prefer Tricky.

The PROcrastinator

Btw, you need to turn the PS logo on your PS2 slim round in your intro. It's in the vertical position when the PS2 is horizontal.

SSX 3 looks so good on Xbox One X!

aqua

I grew up on SSX Tricky/3 on the PS2. I downloaded 3 on my XB1 recently and the controls are absurdly bad in comparison (not trying to dunk on you if you grew up with it on Xbox, but the PS2/GC controls are far, far more intuitive). I really need to know if there's a way to remap the controls, because the game looks great as mentioned, but I refuse to learn board grabs with non-shoulder buttons.

Claus PS

@under10hours how can you play it on that

under10hours

I don't have a One X as of now but with how good the backward compatibility is, I might have to grab one when the new systems come out! I didn't realize SSX was supported , but that's really exciting!
