Consider myself humbled Mr. Batty.

Classic controls!? Yay, I don't have to re-learn the game!

[SpriteZero]

^ Exactly.

[CharmyDweeng]

I love Todd Batty. I want to have another interview but he keeps answering all the best questions!

Also I just want to say I never doubted him. Just because he personally promised me (unknowingly) they would be in. Once again I am stoked.

What does J mean?

[Tunes]

for some reason, in various email hosting sites, when you do an emoticon like a smiley face or frowny face or something, it turns it into J's. i know this because it does that to my dad's emails too. weird.

[Soul on Ice]

Classic as in triggers? Or the face buttons as people have been using in events?

[CharmyDweeng]

Classic as in triggers, yes. I wonder if this means tweaking causes ubertricks, or what.

You are truly a god, Tunes.

[Tunes]

jesus was not a saint, gondee.

but i am flattered nonetheless.

[gondee]

Fixed.

[CharmyDweeng]

Tunes make that your avatar, PLEASE. XD

[Tunes]

LULZ. on it.

Thats cool but how will that work, will you just grind off everything you hit? If your in a race you aint gonna travel from A to B if you cant control where you grind and where you want to ride over you'll be hopping over every bump and ledge. Either way it works, its great that they would do such a thing.

The bizzare thing about this is, it never fails to amaze me when Todd contacts the board members - I dont know why, each time I hear it im like:

[gondee]

Todd is special, honestly. I've never even had marketing members contact me as much as he does in all the years I've been acting as godfather of the SSX community. He really, honestly cares about our opinion on a personal level.

[gondee]

I improved it a little, to be sure the impact of Tunes' faith is truly understood.

[CharmyDweeng]

Can we get a Batty Jesus too?

[gondee]

Can we get a Batty Jesus too?

Batty would be God.

And a Doubting Gondee would be proper as well.

[Boogie]

Tunesus Christ
oh i see.

You'll probably still need to use the grind button. Wonder how that'll go though, if it's also a grab button. Might accidentally pull a grab when you're just trying to hit a rail. But another thing, will we need to balance to stay on the rail, or will holding the button suction us onto it?

[Tunes]

gondee can be the holy spirit. we are the holy trinity. well, either gondee or Peter Moore....





D:



gondee can be satan.

[gondee]

Oila.

[CharmyDweeng]

g, you totes need to be Adam there. so symbolic...

Posting in an epic thread.

Honestly, this is fantastic news for old schoolers like me. I cannot wait to try this game now, i'm so pleased I won't have to go back to n00b level because of relearning the controls.

Tunes. Best. Avatar. Ever. I must admit the god/Batty one is slightly disturbing..... I think it's because his black shirt is missing.

[Kivvi]

a pulse of happiness combined with orgasm just passed through my body.

seriously, Batty is the greatest man in the gaming industry and wider.
