SSX (2012 video game)
SSX is a 2012 snowboarding video game, part of the SSX series by Electronic Arts. It was originally conceived as a reboot of the series, but has since been perceived as the final installment in the franchise. Revealed at the Spike Video Game Awards in 2010 under the working title SSX: Deadly Descents, the game's trailer appeared to show a much darker direction to the series than previous entries, though later footage revealed a return to a lighter tone. SSX includes the use of real locations, rather than the fictional courses of past games.
