When Reality Meets Fantasy: A Look At The Mountains Of SSX (Game Informer)
In the latest issue of _Game Informer_ (#225),I had a chance to speak with SSX
creative director Todd Batty about EA’s upcoming reinvention of the beloved
snowboarding series. While speaking with Batty, I asked him to go over some
specifics on what we can look forward to seeing when we hit SSX’s unique
slopes.
The topography of SSX’s mountains may be based off of real data gathered from
NASA, but Batty says that info accounts for “about 2-3% of the totally player
experience.” Here are some of the crazy changes EA Canada has added to the
30-ish mountains featured in the game:
**Rockies** – This North American mountain range has a logging theme. Players
will find train tracks to grind on and crashed rail cars to trick through
scattered across the mountains. Also look out for logs that can be used to
your advantage or act as deadly obstacles.
**Patagonia** – This incredibly steep region features some of the most narrow
and deviously winding ledges in the game. Prepare to spend entire runs feeling
like you’re seconds away from plummeting off the edge of a gigantic cliff.
