I used to have a wakeboarding game for ps2 It was alright but like any new game needed some improvement I figured a sequel could have fixed the issues, Course there never was a sequel. That was probably around 15 years ago now .

The return of SSX has got me thinking if SSX sells well do you think it might lead developers to try making other sports games like maybe wakeboarding ( who'd popularity has skyrocketed in the last 15 yrs} or wateskiing, or a good surfing game or something?????

I buy video games to play for fun and kinda miss games where the main goal is not to kill something.

There were SO MANY games that tried to share the success that SSX Tricky had when it came out. Not just other snowboarding games like Dark Summit and Amped, but other racing games like Splashdown and Freekstyle have similarities to the game. If this new SSX somehow reignites the over-the-top arcade extreme sport genre that was created and died out along with SSX in the past, I wouldn't count it out.

A scootering game like skate would be sick!

wakeboarding on Wii Sports Resort is super shallow but is still fun for a while

Ya that was the game........funny thing is I was watching some real life video recently of Red Bull's wakeboard team wakeboarding in a swamp, just like in that game... And nowdays a wakeboarding game might fly cuz wakeboarding is way more popular than it was then

yeah i had a demo of that game. it was awesome. i'll probably repurchase it.

i had transworld surfing and kelly slater's pro surfer. those were awesome games.

I think I played the demo too, if that's the same one that came with THPS4.

Yeah. Wakeboarding Unleashed was damn cool.

Anybody remember Transworld Surf? I loved that game.

^ yes. i lovvvvved transworld surf. i like the sandbox/open world feeling to the levels. you could paddle around and ride different waves in different areas. that was awesome.

buuuuut i gotta say Kelly Slater's Pro Surfer is the best. i love love love that game.

I remember having a surfing game for ps2, never did get very good at it but I thought it a really cool game. Playstation 2 seemed to have a lot of different types of games that were fun to play.
