I saw this years ago in a department store magazine before I bought SSX 3. SSX 3 was my first ever SSX so I didn't know who was on the cover but I recall on thinking it was Mac. The background was either black or purplish. Anyway, i haven't been able to a pic of that case anywhere. The logo looked like this I believe:

or it could be this one:

But there's hardly a doubt in my mind that it was the first image. I know games scrap boxarts all the time but it's been driving me crazy that I can't find any evidence of this one and the magazine i saw it in is who knows where. Someone else please tell me they saw this cover? And if so, provide a pic if you can.

Ah, nice to know. But dude, I SWEAR i saw another cover. It was in a 2003 holiday Fingerhut catalog. I dunno if anyone's heard of that company but it was there. Didn't look like a "placeholder" cover or anything and now I know it definitely had the first logo I posted, with Mac or anoher guy on the cover. I'm suprised no one else seems to have saw this, seeing as how I thought this board was created right before the release of SSX 3 and I know you guys probably tracked the game extensively.

I've searched a hundred sites with no luck and I don't know if any potential old links to the cover would be broken or destroyed. I just want to confirm what I know I saw plus it was a nice ass cover. If I find it I might use it for my SSX 3...

I don't know where grandmort got that first SSX 3 logo. The second was the precursor to the existing one, it was released with the first trailer.

Yea I saw the second one plenty of times before the game came out. It was in the gameplay trailer that made me want the game. But that first logo is definitely it. Do you think if I wrote to an EA representative they'd help? Because I made a bet with my friend a few years back and he's STILL on my ass about it despite me swearing on my soul what I saw and I can't find anything on the net. I thought it was the vast source to nearly all information??

Nah that wasn't it. It was only Mac or someone else doing a trick in a dark background.
