SSX features incredibly detailed, surreal landscapes, fast-paced action and nifty aerial tricks. But what really sets it apart is the sound. Realistic effects, exuberant voices, and an atmospheric, upbeat soundtrack make this more than just a snowboarding game. It's a full-scale multimedia experience. The soundtrack is atypical for a video game.
Most games utilize a score that is either orchestral or made up of hit pop music.
The songs chosen for the soundtrack cannot be found in the top-40 rack at a local Tower Records. We wanted music to suit the environment of the game. What makes the music particularly innovative is that it is interactive. It changes based on how well you are performing. As you fly through the course, more of the audio is layered in.
