    EA Sports Big has once again delivered the big air, big stunts, big hits, and big competition we have come to know and love them for.

    More of a racer which happens to let you do tricks now and again. It's a very finely tuned racer, though, with breakneck handling, a great sense of speed, and and level design in the very best EA Sports Big style.

    Imaginative tracks, cool tricks, a real sense of speed, and loads of unlockable stuff all add up to a racing experience that is not to be missed.

    The courses were original and I liked all the shortcuts the game contained, but the auto catch up feature and seemingly "perfect" AI really started to give me some heartburn.

    Overall the production value on this game is solid, but since the gameplay is neither groundbreaking nor terribly engaging – the game just falls right in the middle of the pack. [Apr 2002, p.75]

    An entertaining game with some real character. I just feel that the lack of depth makes this best as a rental, and with the SSX pedigree behind it, that's a disappointment. [Apr 2002, p.106]

    The single biggest sticking point here is that Sled Storm fails to control as well as its predecessor or even "SSX."

    All I have 2 say is that I want Sled Storm to go out for Nintendo Gamecube.

    Let me get this straight, the game wasn't aged well and if you are a seeker for different type of games like me or just would like to see whatLet me get this straight, the game wasn't aged well and if you are a seeker for different type of games like me or just would like to see what it was - leave it be. Not only because it looks boring, the one good thing about it, I guess, it's tricks, but we saw this type of stuff already in some better games like Pure, Nail'd and whatnot with better handling and more favorable than Sledstorm on PS2. I feel like even PS1 version plays better today.
    Fair number for this now is 55/100.
    I just wanted the rating to go down a lil bit, because the title is not worthy anymore. Cheers!    … Expand
