'SSX' (ALL) Contest Lets You Vote Which Character To Drop

by Rainier on April 27, 2011 @ 12:41 a.m. PDT

A reinvention of the classic action snowboarding franchise, SSX packs adrenaline into every run with compelling characters and heart-pumping adventures as riders battle the most treacherous and diverse mountain ranges on Earth.

SSX will pit riders versus both mountain and man. Players will explore the story of a team who seek to be the first to descend the faces of the most treacherous mountain ranges on the planet. The team will travel the world to face the worst that Mother Nature can throw at them.

Redefining the franchise, SSX will pit riders versus both mountain and man. Players will explore the story of a team who seek to be the first to descend the faces of the most treacherous mountain ranges on the planet. The team will travel the world to face the worst that Mother Nature can throw at them. From the peaks of the Himalayas, where the air is so thin that riders have to descend through the death zone at breakneck speeds to keep from blacking out, to the solid ice ranges of Antarctica, where a sunlit line is the only survival option when temperatures drop 50 degrees centigrade in the shade. And the mountain isn’t the only danger players will face. In SSX the first goal is to survive. The second, in true SSX fashion, is to look good doing it.

EA SPORTS is allowing fans to help select  the cast of the new SSX.  Hosted on the game’s Facebook page, the SSX Character Voting will run for three weeks and asks fans to choose the characters from the franchise’s past that they would like to see join the new faces of the franchise when SSX makes its return.

Each week four characters from past SSX titles will be featured on the SSX Character Voting tab. SSX fans will be asked to select three out of those four characters that they would like to see make an appearance in the new SSX.

Voting Schedule:

  • Week of April 25 - Kaori, JP, Moby, Viggo
  • Week of May 2 – Zoe, Mac, Nate, Allegra
  • Week of May 9 - Psymon, Eddie, Griff, Tyson
