I actually had a lot of fun playing this game, in between moments of peak frustration as I failed challenges over and over again. These moments however drove me on to master the controls of the game to a certain degree, but I wasn't willing to commit to anything beyond the main campaign as I knew the difficulty curve to go any further would require more than I was capable of. SSX is a very exciting game, and you're always kept on the edge of your seat as the slopes are very thrilling. I'm not an SSX series purist so can't make any comparisons, but the experience was fun without being anything extraordinary.
Didn't enjoy this as much as I thought I would sadly. Found the controls more complicated than they needed to be, and despite seeming like a rather zen game from a distance, the requirements for succeeding were far too great. I enjoyed the free rolling so much more than the levels at the first time of asking.
A hearty, enjoyable and pleasant game to play from start to finish. I played and 100% completed this game over 6 months, due to lack of free time more than anything else, and throughout I always found Ocarina of Time easy enough to pick up again where I left off, even if a fortnight had passed. It's reputation as a game is definitely deserved.
I found every dungeon enjoyable and rewarding to complete, and the controls and gameplay throughout to be very consistently strong. The world of Hyrule is easy on the eye and all the characters are intriguing and likeable. The side quests are (mostly) good fun and I really like the ability to change the world with time travel.
However, the game isn't without it's faults, understandably with it's age and how early on in the 3D adventure game invention cycle it was. I found Hyrule field a chore to navigate around until ocarina travel or Epona became available. Some stages of game progression seemed impossible without a guide telling me exactly what to do, and after all the effort I went to to collect 100 golden skullutas, the final reward is absolutely laughable. Finally, the fishing game is such nonsense. I broke my analogue stick holding down on it for hours trying to catch a 13 pound fish, and ended up permanently breaking my 3DS when attempting to repair it. I blame fishing entirely for that!
I'm glad I made sure to give this game a proper go, as it's a very worthwhile experience.
