Criterion Working On New SSX Title?
Written Friday, February 12, 2010 By Richard Walker
View author's profile

Official PlayStation Magazine has reported that Criterion might be working on a new SSX title for PS3.

We haven't seen an SSX game since SSX Blur on the Wii or SSX On Tour on the PlayStation 2 and Xbox, just over four years ago.

The magazine declared that Criterion is apparently working on the new SSX alongside a new Need For Speed game confirmed for a Q4 2011 release.

We'll see whether this is snow joke or a n-ice surprise in due course. Groan.

I could see this going well.

Airblade was an excelent game, if a little bare in the content department. Applying the skills gained from producing it to the SSX IP, and you're onto a winner in my books.

Cool, I used to love playing SSX games on my ps2. I felt like a badass snowboarding star doing those crazy f-ing tricks lol :p while jamming to the music and stuff...good times...good times =)I can always wait for Black 2 and the other titles Criterion makes. There's so many games coming out that I can wait for them ;)Good luck Criterion with your next title.

this news was originally reported weeks ago and quickly debunked: http://www.merqurycity.com/ssx_forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=8650 but i still have slight hopes we'll get a new ssx at some point.

That would make sense, hasn't been one for years and it was very sucessful, not to mention awesome.

Could've sworn Criterion's NFS was Q4 2010....

Sorry to burst this bubble, but I reported on this for VGChartz back when Criterion tweeted this, and they responded to me via email.

I was very sad.

NFS? Burnout? Snore.

A new SSX that's the quality of Tricky and 3 would be THE snowboarding game of the generation. And this gen really needs one.

and also that a guy that was the director of 'Black' (brilliant PS2 shooter) is working on a new title although it can't be named Black 2 as criterion still own the rights to the name/title and he has moved companies since.

SSX 3 and SSX On Tour were two of my favourite games on PS2. Would love to see a new one coming. Hope they dont do crazy stuff like Tony Hawk Ride :S
