SSX Tricky is a snowboarding video game, the second game in the SSX series published by EA Sports BIG & developed by EA Canada. The game, which builds on the previous SSX game, is named after Run-D.M.C.'s "It's Tricky", which is featured throughout the game. The game was released in November 2001.
SSX Tricky was generally well received by the critics, with all but the portable version averaging over 85% on GameRankings. Most reviews hesitated before calling SSX Tricky a "true sequel" since it shared a large amount of content with the original SSX (all but two of the courses appear on the original). Reviews did compliment the features added over the original SSX such as "Uber tricks" and "Rivalry" with other boarders. Some reviewers thought that the improvements over the (already well received) original were so good that SSX Tricky was billed as the best snowboarding game made to date. The voice acting was highly praised by many reviewers, noting that the use of celebrities such as Lucy Liu helped bring the outrageous characters to life. The in game music system received much acclaim as it was able to adapt to suit the situation. Each course had specific songs paired with it to match the mood and when riders reached maximum boost or were knocked down, the music would react. The size of the environments, the high detail of the graphics and the trick system also received plenty of recognition from reviewers. In predicting the sales for the game, PSX Extreme said "It's quite unfortunate if I do say so myself, because a AAA title like SSX Tricky won't be getting the sales it really deserves."
