SSX Out of Bounds is a snowboarding game that was also released on the Gizmondo in 2005.
+ Catching big air and successfully executing huge trick combos is intoxicating, particularly when linked with rail grinds.
+ Plenty of modes to sink your teeth into and the different event types force you to adapt to new ways of playing in order to advance.
- Rough frame-rate, making it hard to see upcoming turns and resulting in a lack of precision when attempting to navigate.
- Contains numerous bugs and clipping issues, which either cause you to inexplicably bail or push you into an out-of-bounds area.
- Controls are very unpredictable and there's many times where your button presses are randomly ignored by your character.
- Lengthy load times and elongated courses don't really lend themselves to the handheld's pick-up-and-play nature.
