---------------------
It's you against the ain. SSX 3 challenges gamers to drop
in and conquer a massive, living ain rife with ego-crushing
challenges and gravity-bending thrills. Sporting an all-new
open-ended gameplay structure, gamers are free to ride anywhere
gravity takes them, seamlessly boarding from one event to the
next as they begin their assault on the ain's three
larger-than-life peaks.
Gamers will need to overcome everything the ain throws at
them-from fierce lightening storms and breathtaking vertical
drops to serpentine slope style courses and earth-swallowing
avalanches-on their quest for the ultimate adrenaline rush. The
ain presents gamers with a world of open vistas and fresh
powder for out of bounds exploration, filled with trick venues,
rail parks, racecourses, and half-pipes with new tricks to master
and new competitors to leave in the dust.
More than two years in the making, SSX 3 is a massive sequel to
SSX and SSX Tricky, the games that started the EA SPORTS BIG
brand. Buckle up your bindings as a returning veteran or
fresh-faced rookie. Get ready to take on other riders-and the
biggest challenge yet-the ain itself.
Key Features

that can run the length of the entire ain.
