Customer Reviews

Worth getting.
This is a great game if you like skiing. You have to put alot of hours in to start winning though. I do like the fact that this game is quit hard unlike other games.
This is worth getting!

Fun in the snow!
This is the first game we played on the Playstation, so we're newbies at the controllers which took a while to get the hang of.

Overall it's a good game, better fun played with an opponent to chase, or follow down the slopes. There's all the usual disciplines, Downhill, Super G, Giant Slalom and Slalom and there's no end of choice of courses to choose from. They're not graded, but some are certainly easier to navigate than others!
There's also a World Cup mode, where you're skiing against the best in the world ... we've not made it into the top 50 yet!!!

To expand your choice of equipment you have to do some challenges, and unless there's something we're missing, they seem pretty much impossible. Huge ski jumps to land on a target, speedy slaloms etc.
Maybe we just have to keep practising!! A lot. :-)

If you like the idea of skiing without leaving the warmth of your own home, get this game. Plenty variety, and lots of fun.
