SSX Tricky is EA's follow up to SSX . The game features more storytelling than the original, with personality attributes that develop rivalries between characters. These rivalries cause them to act more aggressively towards each other during races. The übertrick system adds a new layer to the game. These tricks are tougher to pull off, but give a nice boost.
The game has seven returning tracks from the original, accompanied by brand-new Garibaldi and Alaska tracks. The returning tracks have up to four times as many shortcuts and hidden lines. Six of the eight riders from the original return, and are joined by six new ones. The soundtrack features mixes by Mix Master Mike, Aphrodite, and the Plump DJs.
