In order to give you a better idea what it's like to play AT on the PS2, I've decided to write this review in a manner more fitting to the game's framerate. This is the choppiest most inexcueably disjionted framerate ever on the PS2, rendering this game virtually unplayable. Do not, repeat: DO NOT go anywhere near this game. You've been warned.
Great Game for Family Fun

I have to say that for PS2 this is a great game. Of course, nothing compares to the original arcade game where you sit on the snow mobile, move back & forth, feel the cool breeze, etc., but putting that aside, this is a pretty awesome game! Same courses & riders, etc., and you feel all the vibrations and such in the PS2 controller.
I would, however, shop around on the price but at it's current price it's not too bad. If you like fun, excitement and challenge this is a good game for all ages!
A Fun Ride!

Being a fan of the arcade version, I was excited to see this as a PS2 Title. It is very similar to the arcade version, and just about as much fun. There are many tracks, sleds, and riders to choose from and unlock, which makes game play more interesting. It is a bit fast, but that's a good thing! If you like a frantic paced racing game with a healthy dose of fighting I think you will like this one!!
The only drawback is that on two player games the visibility is limited and it makes navigation harder. That said this is a great game!
Time to kick some artic ...

This game is probably the weekest game in snowmobile history. At the start of any race you can hold down the power button and make it all the way to the end of the course without even steering. Too many bright flashing colors like you are a pinball bouncing around until the race is over. Don't even bother trying to leave the track.. This game does what IT wants to do. Not worth even renting
VERY Disappointing.

This game has a cool cover. You see missiles and explosions and high speeds... It looks like a cool game on the outside. But pop it into you good old PS2 and you'll discover that looks can be deceiving. The game is way to fast paced. Usually, that's a good thing, but this one is SO fast paced, you can't tell what the heck's going on! The levels are WAY to short, but I've been playing SSX for so long, perhaps i'm a bit biased. The graphics... [shudders in revultion] ...are horryfing! It shames the mighty PS2 by looking like an N64 game! Not that there's anything wrong with N64 games... But they don't belong on a PS2!! Plus, this game looks like it could have been pretty good with some kind of storyline, which it has absolutly none of. I can only hope the Xbox or Gamecube versions will be better. But until then, don't let the nifty cover suck you in!
Fun game for all ages!

My wife and I recently bought this game so we could play a game that had a two player mode. So far so good. There are a couple different options, it's not just racing (there's a battle mode and more). The game is a lot of fun and I would highly recomend it for anyone who likes racing with a little violence mixed in. I think there are better racing, or action games out there, but like I said this is a fun one to play as one player or two.
