GameBosh Review: SSX Blur

GameBosh writes: "Although the SSX series began on the Playstation 2 back in the year 2000, snowboarding and skiing seem much more fulfilling sports when played on the Nintendo Wii. After all, isn't skiing just about holding two poles in your hands and moving them around a bit? Okay, so there's a bit more to it than that, especially in SSX Blur which has some pretty difficult controls.

No doubt countless minors have bought this game thinking it'll be a bit of fun - Tony Hawk on a snowboard perhaps - and then gave up during the tutorials. Why? Because the simple act of steering takes a long time to get to grips with, and that's before you even mention tricks. The nunchuk controls your direction, with tilt controlling wide turns and the stick controlling small turns. You'll need to use one or both of these controls, depending on how sharp a turn is."
